SOGTAC, Smith & Wesson, Buck, & Colt autos

Added more to original post on May 7th.

It's been a long time since I posted something for sale on this or any other forum, so bear with me if I don't have it quite right. I am posting these on other forums.
First off, the "fine print:"
No trades. If you think I have something irresistible, try me, but don't be too disappointed if I manage to resist.
If you really want it, e-mail me! Use my screen name at hotmail. I plan to list things on multiple forums (sorry, need to sell), and the only way to keep time stamps straight is by e-mail. Afterwards, post your "I'll take it" or send me a message. Asking questions isn't "I'll take it."
Prices include shipping in U.S. with tracking, but no insurance. That's extra if you want it. I accept PayPal, money orders, and will take personal checks but they have to clear first. Cash works, but it's risky sending it.
I will ship outside U.S., but if you don't want to pay for Priority Mail Express, then I can't help you or be responsible once I place it in the mail here.
I don't have a photo hosting service, so I will only include limited photos as attachments. I have lots of photos, so if you want to see more of something, ask.
I will consider offers, but I may choose to decline them. Like I said, I haven't tried selling anything in a while, so my prices may be off, a little or a lot. I am trying to be fair and reasonable.

First one is a Smith & Wesson California Issue SW1260 little auto. New in box, removed from tissue paper, still has the original price tags on it. Opens fast. 1-13/16" blade. Box indicates "ARMED FORCES ONLY" on side - not entirely true. $75

SOGTAC ST-01. I think it was SOG's first auto-opener. New in box, opened only for photos. Has two cloudy spots on reverse of blade: came from factory that way. Opens fast, has safety. Clip warns: "Caution: Full Auto LE/MIL." Thin and light. $100

Benchmade 9100T Auto Stryker L.E. Trainer. Red handle, dull training only blade. New in box. Opens kind of slow. Made in limited quantities, hard to find. $120 $110

A couple more autos:

Buck 110 double action conversion. Looks like scales were replaced with laminated/stabilized wood, maybe some variety of Pakkawood, designed for this. Small, hard-to-see gouge just below rocker switch. Center pivot pin extends out from handle on both sides about 1/32", one side is screw. Looks carried and used. Scratches to blade and on bolsters, buffed; fairly deep scratches on very back on bolster on non-mark side. Sharpened. Integral nickel silver bolsters and liners. Date marking on blade from 2008. Opens quickly, locks up solid. $Sold

Two nearly identical Colt M-16-K double action hidden release autos. Open with thumb stud or press bottom right corner of forward rubber inlay for auto release. One is stamped CT 4 4, other is CT 30. The CT 4 4 looks unused/uncarried except for pinprick blemish to very front of scale by pocket clip. CT30 shows pocket wear on high points, tiny spots on blade. CT4 4 opens faster. I don't think either one was used, though neither is really sharp. $135 $125 for CT4 4, and $125 $110 for CT30.

Adding some other autos I have: pretty much cheapies or ones that need repair.

China made double action scale release. Works OK, not carried or used other than sitting open on the desk and opening the occasional letter. Lockup is good. $20

"U.S.A." auto - not actually sure I want to believe that, but maybe - has safety on top, opens quick, another one I never carried or used. $20

Schrade Walden orange handled U.S. Pilot Survival Knife - among other things. I used these in EOD for years because when you are wearing gloves to bag chemical weapons, you can't open a regular knife to cut tape or anything else. Best one I have today, don't think it was used or sharpened, some scratches, opens well but not quite far enough to pop up the button to lock blade in place - or maybe it just hits backspring and bounces back a tiny bit. I'm guessing a semi-skilled person could do something about this. I have a couple of other pictures if needed. $50

Camillus orange handled Pilot Survival Knife, pretty much the same as the Schrade Walden but made by Camillus. This one has been carried, used, sharpened, and had a rougher life. It shows the wear. Biggest problem: weak or no spring under button, so it doesn't pop back up to lock blade in place, either open or closed. This one needs some work, but once done, at least you have a nice war relic - not sure which war, but must have seen some action, right? I also have a few more pictures of this one. $35

Little pen-style auto, chisel ground, opens quick, closes quicker, plastic body, butt secured with Phillips head screw so you can work on this one easily if you want to, never used but a couple of scratches on blade. Cool little toy. $25

Bell Super-Automatic. Reminds me of the ones I used to find in Germany all the time, inexpensive but cool looking. This one doesn't really work: won't extend blade out the front all the way or retract it all the way. Blade wobbles, is scratched up. It's something you would buy to take apart and work on, and I'm pricing it that way. $10

Rizzuto Estileto Milano. I think this one might be an actual Italian auto from years ago. It has a folding (thin stamped) guard and a pretty fancy bail. One handle is black plastic, has crack from button to slide locking button. Other side has wooden scale that's a replacement, help in place with the center pin and some sort of glue/epoxy. Spring replaced with... something that functions as a spring and actually works, but it isn't right. Blade has been sharpened a good bit. This one is another restoration porject, but if you put in the work, it might just clean up nice. The bigger autos are nice finds, and this one is a bit under 11". Again, I have more pictures than I can post here. $30

Finally, a WANDY stiletto that was treated harshly. You can see that the backspring was bent up, the blade sharpened a lot - marks all the way up both sides from a wire wheel or grinding wheel - one scale cracked and warped, other scale cracked, one liner bent outward, blade doesn't open completely though spring is strong: which I am sure is because of the bent liner. In short, another extensive restoration project. I'd like to believe there is somebody out there who likes to work on the old switchblades and would like to give this one, and the others, some new life. I'm asking $30 for this one. Thanks.
