This is a used condition Ed Martin survival knife. I got this secondhand in a charity raffle, and it is a nice knife, but not one I would collect. Somebody should be using it.
I believe these are $450 from Ed, but it's used and has a few dings, so let's try SOLD SOLD SOLD$300 SOLD SOLD SOLD shipped USPS Priority Mail with insurance or best offer - I sold two other knives and am currently snowed in until Thursday night or Friday, so I cannot mail right away, but thought I might try and sell this one and make a single trip to the Post Office on Friday.
Of note: There is something gummy stuck on the blade edge on the left side by the sharpening notch. This could be gently removed or scrubbed off but resisted wiping off with a paper towel. There is a ding and some glinting on the right side of the top of the blade just where the clip point starts that you can feel slightly running your hand over it. And there is some slight tear-out of the micarta by the small pin on the left side bottom of the guard. Overall definitely a user, but quite sharp and very ergonomically comfortable.
Blade: 5", 4.7" sharpened edge, S35VN, seems about 7/32" stock. Finish seems blasted.
Handle: Black canvas micarta, matte finish, with blasted stainless pins. 4.75" with a 0.25" exposed tang on the back and a black lanyard.
Sheath: Black leather, multi-carry option with scout carry loops and a vertical carry belt loop and retention snap. Thong leg tie-down.
Terms and Conditions
I prefer payment PayPal G&S, but can accept CashApp, Venmo, USPS Money Order, and personal check (that last accepted at my discretion based on your Bladeforums history).
I ship promptly, either same or next day depending on time of payment, by USPS Priority Mail, fully insured, and with signature confirmation required on delivery. I will promptly notify buyer of any delay in shipping. Contact me prior to payment for other shipping options.
***NOTE*** Massive localized weather delay for shipping, we are in the middle of a 12-24" snowstorm, and the roads are not reliably passable as the snow is continuing to accumulate and drift despite effective snowplow clearance. I will only promise to ship by Saturday morning.
I request buyer reply promptly after receipt to confirm delivery and satisfaction. If I have not heard from you within three days of delivery confirmation, I will consider the sale final. No returns for buyer's remorse. I make careful effort to accurately describe and photograph knives I sell or trade, but if you feel that the knife was not accurately described, please contact me within three days of receipt to arrange return and refund and send me a picture of the defect.
I'll leave positive feedback for any buyer who posts in the sale thread, pays reasonably promptly and promptly notifies me when they receive the knife.
International Buyers
Contact me prior to sending payment to verify payment and shipping plans. Any international buyer assumes full responsibility for the knife once shipped - I will accurately describe it on a customs declaration in terms of description and sale value (not label it a 'camping or gardening tool' or mark the value to be minimal or 'gift') and international buyers assume all risk of customs confiscation or shipping loss. For international buyers using mail forwarding services from the U.S., my responsibility ends once the knife has been received by your mail forwarding service.
