Never cut or carried. Everything is perfect. Birthdate is on card in photo. Image should show blade centering.

Hank you’re probably going to think I’m being a dick here, but I’m not. This is me being helpful...

There’s a minimal standard amount of information describing the knife that’s expected. With a minimal standard of effort in general in the listing.

When a listing arrives with that level of input and devoid any detail, it makes members think it’s not a sincere listing, which is compounded by the fact you’re a member without reputation. Essentially telegraphing to us that to engage is a waste of our time.

To put this in perspective, you’ve listed what’s possibly the most universally collectible and desired knife on this site, for a realistic price, that normally wouldn’t last three minutes before a guy was already calling seconds behind the first guy breaking an arm patting his back he got it first.

And it’s crickets. If you’re actually motivated to move that knife, you should probably take five min to read the rules and a sample listing.

I know I sound like a pretentious ahole, so I’m being completely sincere when I say I apologize if this offends you. I think I got dropped on the head as a kid a few times or something.

We were all new once, hope this helps, buddy.

I hear you. I’m happy to relay any missing details to anyone who inquires.

Hank, they were asking you to read the rules and edit your first post to comply, not just answer questions after the fact - be proactive -

SEE Exchange Forum Rules - Your listing only covers #4 and #6 below - glad you sold it, but in the future please put all the details in the 1st post of the listing - See #5 and #7 below

Thanks!

Sellers/Selling -

1. Be 100% sure that you want to sell the item, have it in your possession and clearly list the TOTALselling price.
   • There is no "testing the waters" or "gauge buyer interest".
   • "Net to me" needs to be figured into your LISTED PRICE
   • Insurance is the responsibility of the SELLER not the Buyer. This is for your protection.
   • Paypal "friends & family" is STRONGLY DISCOURAGED. This is for your protection.
2. No auction or raffle type sale threads.
3. No sales for third parties. If your "friend" wants an item sold, they must create their own account and list it themselves.
4. Activate/Enable your ability to receive email and private messaging, from members, moderators, and administrators; you must also display your correct membership level.
5. When describing your items, be honest and provide an accurate & detailed description of the item. Don't forget to mention defects, blemishes, new, used, or other problems. When in doubt, be pessimistic with your descriptions. If you have a problem being honest, upfront, and are unable to honor your word then you do not belong here.
6. Provide as many photos as possible, in the best lighting possible. It's always nice for buyers to see what they are going to get. Threads with pictures sell items faster than those without. Keep in mind, gigantic photos take forever to load for some people and can be an eyesore, resizing to a reasonable size is advised
7. Be specific with all details of payment. There is no eBay style auctioning allowed. If you want to entertain trade offers, say so in your sales thread (For Sale Or Trade); it is allowed.
8. If you have a Gold or higher membership you may list currently active threads in your signature space. Please, no giant billboards and no links to eBay.
9. Consolidate your 'like" items into a single thread. If you have multiple knives to sell, post them in a single thread. Or you can do different threads on different days. You are only allowed 1 sales thread, per day, per forum. If you list an item and it sells, don't start another thread in the same section until the next day. If a moderator consolidates your threads, edit the title and make any changes you need to. DO NOT START AN ALL NEW THREAD! Let's keep it fair for everyone.
10. You must wait 14 days (2 week rule) to relist an item for the second time. Once you list an item for sale, that item cannot appear for a second time in a sales thread until 2 weeks have passed from the date of the original thread. Any changes made to your existing sales thread (withdrawing, editing price, etc.) must be made to that thread, don't start new threads with the same items. Use a calendar if you need to. You can link your sales threads to your signature space, but don't make it a giant billboard.
