SOLD: Ray Laconico small Jasmine

[EspionageStudio]

This full custom Ray Laconico small Jasmine has been carried and seen some mild use but nothing extreme as far as I can tell (I am the second owner). I like to fully disclose any possible issues so the buyer knows exactly what they are getting. This one features the contoured Ti scales with speed holes and a moonglow backspacer which is a hard to find option. Sizing is as follows, the handle is 4 1/16", the blade is 3 1/8" from frame to tip and the OAL is 7 3/16" from tip to the end of the handle. It has an original Laconico edge made with D2 steel, it is still sharp and the action is awesome with a solid, somewhat early lockup (see pics) and there are bearings used in the pivot. There is some very mild staining on the blade if you look closely, looks to me like light surface rust on the front third of the D2 hear the tip on the presentation side but it is very light and hardly noticeable (I just wiped down the blade with some Ballistol and it pretty much cleaned off). Oh the joys of D2 steel. The blade is not centered very well (see pic) and one of the clip screws has a scrape on it as if it had rubbed against something while in the previous owners pocket, the clip shows some scuffs/scratches in a similar fashion but overall the knife is in decent shape. I planned on keeping it as a user but bills have forced the sale, Ray said he could spa this knife for $50 but I never got around to sending it in. It includes a small black zipper pouch (nothing special but it came with it). I am asking SOLD for this knife via Paypal. If you want it to be insured it will have to be on your own dime I will not be liable for any mishaps once it leaves my hands and is in possession of the almighty USPS. I ship quickly and with USPS priority small box. I can also be reached via email at espionagestudio at the gmails if you prefer that. I do have this posted elsewhere so earliest time stamp wins. NO TRADES PLEASE

Can you post the dimensions (BL, OAL)? I am aware of the Jasmine's specs, but not the mini Jasmine.
Thanks
