Alright. This is the nicest knife I own, it's got the smoothest action I've ever experienced and I know I'll never use it. Got it about seven months ago, time to let it go. Numerous owners, previous owner stated it had been lightly used and carried, but you wouldn't know it by looking at it. There are a couple of tiny snail trails but you have to look very closely and in the right light to see them, but want to fully disclose everything. Never carried or cut with by me.
Caveat: pocket clip/standoffs needs to be repaired. Appear to be stripped as seen here: https://imgur.com/0kHt27L Previous owner reached out to Sean Campbell (the guy who does Jason Guthrie repairs stateside) and was roughly quoted $100 for repairs. I have not reached out to Sean myself, just going off of the previous owner's info and texts between himself & Sean. Upon further inspection (and referencing this picture: https://imgur.com/k3nTxGn ) Screw 1 appears to be stripped slightly. Truthfully, it could be the screw, it could be the standoff - I can't tell. It screws down snug, and then continues screwing. Screw 2 is a long screw that goes through the pocket clip, the standoff, the handle/frame and the standoff between the two handle pieces. It doesn't really tighten down. As far as I can tell there is no threading in the frame/handle itself. The issue is with the screws and the standoffs, both of which should be able to be easily replaced.
Since I got this it was on my list of projects but I always hesitated because it was so nice, which is reason enough to move it on to someone else who will enjoy it.
Knife comes with pouch, manual & COA.
DOB: 6/24/2016.
SV: $1100 1300, no trades.
Payment by Paypal F&F or CashApp only, CONUS only, price includes Priority Mail Express & insurance.
Thanks!
