No this is not the Carbon Fiber one, which I've been trying to hunt down for some time but the snapon folks around me just simply don't have. So today I saw a snapon truck and decided to try my luck again..No Carbon Blurs but he did have a red blur that was a little nicked up on the scales and the clip was beat too, told me his knife display fell off the wall and it was a brand new knife. He showed me the other knives that fell. It was sad wish I had a picture, a 1660VIB with half the blade missing, a 1660BLSO with half the blade missing, and a 1660CBSO with the locking mechanism broken/and the scale was beat up ( showed me how strong the composite blade was since it still was intact). Then I looked at the blur and everything was good, nothing a little paint/red sharpie couldn't fix. He said i'd take $30 and I said oh hell yes i'll buy it. Wish I took a before picture, but heres how she looks. Its not perfect,but can't beat it for $30

Thats what I was gonna ask him, maybe someone cut him off or he drives like a looney... I mine sand down and fix the scale one day and powercoat it a deeper red for fun.
 
Great story! :) And an excellent find for $30. If you're going to use it anyway and not keep it in a safe, a few nicks in advance isn't going to hurt anything. (Too bad the same can't be said for the other Blurs... :( ) Congratulations on the score!
 
I believe my local SO guy has one if someone is super super super serious about wanting the CF one.

I don't want to shell out the bills to buy one only to have someone change their mind about dropping $150 +shipping on a CF Blur.
