Hi all. Got a couple of SOG Double Action Revolvers here. Both come with original box and papers.
1) The TREV-8 is mint, never used, with the super-rare TiNi coated blades. It's just sat in a cupboard for decades. Even the box is in near-mint condition. Comes with all original extras - kydex sheath, paracord and info/warranty pamphlet and SOG product brochure. A unique bit of SOG history!
I received this lovely message a few days after listing this on eBay:

"Hi, very early unique Revolver you have. Only made for one year. Only Revolver knife that the blade will rotate 360. The Tini version is very rare. These knives were made in USA and came out in 2003. I am the designer/inventor. I only have a few of these myself. Good luck and best wishes on your sale, sincerely, Robbie Roberson."
$275US/$370AUD
2) The REV-8 (satin finished blades) hasn't been used but unfortunately has some small rust spots on it from storage (they are on the tanto blade - see photos). It's just sat in a cupboard for decades - the box is in near-mint condition - but with those spots I would have to describe it as "used". Comes with all original extras - kydex sheath, paracord and info/warranty pamphlet and SOG product brochure.
$190US/$260
I also have a mint NW Ranger (2nd Gen) partially serrated fixed blade ($250US?)
FYI, I might be open to a trade for a Spyderco Native tan-handled "Operation ____" military-exclusive knife, or a Strider ED neck knife
Postage is free in Australia, otherwise probably around $25AU/$19USD international

DESCRIPTION:
Double Action Revolver – two blades in one? For those who can never decide between a clip point and a tanto blade, now you don’t have to. For those who can’t decide between a partially serrated blade and a straight edge, now you don’t have to. For those who want to get two blades for the price of one, now you have to! The Double Action Revolver’s secret is simply twice the capability for the same size and weight. Utilizing patented technology developed by Robbie Roberson, you can depress the locking lever (hidden in handle) and rotate the blade to transform the tanto blade into a SEAL style clip blade with partial serrations. The Double Action Revolver comes standard with a new look in blade shape that is not only functional, but distinctive. A straight edge tanto blade serves as a backup in the handle. The 1/2 serrated clip-point SEAL blade features a forward thumb rest for increased dexterity and downward pressure. A glass-reinforced Zytel handle hides the stainless steel liners, which ensure strength and quality. And as always, SOG’s edges are razor sharp. Whether you’re camping or crusading, why not pack twice the capability with the Double Action Revolver? It just might transform your idea of what a knife should be.
