I bought this knife directly from Russia almost a year ago. It has not been carried, sharpened, or used at all. It comes with everything it came with new. The blade is perfectly centered, it absolutely flies open when flipped and easily falls shut under its own weight (as you would expect from Shirogorov). It has jimping. From what I understand the Vandais 10 blade steel is usually only used on customs. FULL DISCLOSURE: there is a slight catch when disengaging the lock bar. It does not affect the function of the knife in any way, but there is an audible 'pop' when it is disengaged. I have not felt confident enough in my abilities to take the knife apart and clean it - it is probably an easy fix. I am asking $1000 net to me for it to be shipped from Minnesota to your door, fully insured by USPS. International buyers can negotiate additional shipping fees with me. NO TRADES. Please inquire with any questions.
