Looking to switch up the collection. If you have any questions about what's here, let me know and I'll help you out. I don't get notifications for profile messages so PMs or shooting me an email at kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com is going to be the best way to reach me. I also check my threads every once in a while so I'll usually see your posts. If you'd prefer a straightforward sale, just shoot me an offer. If you don't have much feedback or forum history, I might ask you to ship first. I'll be happy to ship international but the buyer will need to assume all risks. The knives will come with what's shown unless otherwise stated. Thanks for taking a look.
For trades, I'm looking for: Grahams, Yunas, Marlowes, Tashi collabs and customs, Marshs, Strider big belly PT, MSC AR Gut Shovel, GTCs, Sharknivcos, Careys, Black Snow Sabotage, Mayos, Ochs Persian, Ochs Oni, Burchs, Lefty Grimsmo, VanderMeulen Homicide, Burke/Williams Kickstop Rebel, Lee Williams Iceman, ZT 0454, G&G Orbit, an older full thickness Direware Solo, Graham Ringed Rhino, and a Rockstead Shun. I'm always be open to other offers. I like seeing what's out there and the worst I can do is pass. Cash can be added either way.
1. Brad Southard Dowling - like new
A function first 3.75" hawkbill built perfect
Not sure how many Dowlings he's made but this is the only one in MEFP
Fit and finish is perfect
Glass smooth action, locks with no play, and centering is dead on
2. Ferrum Forge Custom Specter - carried
FF made 20 of the Specters around when the Pretiums first came out
3.25" blade in CPM-S125V (edge retention is in the same vein as REX-121 and Maxamet. Rare steel because it's a nightmare for makers to work with)
It feels like a FF custom, runs on strong lockbar tension paired up with the Hoback Rolling Detent
Flips reliably, locks with no play in any direction, and works great in hand
3. Aegis Knife Works Xiphos #8 - lightly carried - Traded
3.75" compound ground tanto blade in CPM-3V
Contoured frame
Blue anodized pivot collar, lockbar stablizer, screws, frame standoffs, and clip standoffs
Centering is dead on and it flips well
Has a slight bit of play if you grab the blade but the knife is 100% safe
Feels great in hand
