I'm trying to switch up the collection so here are some knives I'm putting up for trade. I'll be here to answer any questions you might have. If you need more details/specs/pictures, just shoot me a message and I'll have them sent over. If you're interested, feel free to start a conversation or email me at kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com. I try to check my threads fairly often so chances are I'll see your posts as well. If you just want a straightforward sale, let me know and we can have something worked out. Thanks for taking a look.
For trades, I'm looking for a: Spyderco HAP40 Lum Chinese, Spyderco Caribbean. Spyderco Smock, Striders, Protechs, GEC #46 Whaler, Olamics, Chris Reeves, Hinderers, Ferrum Forges, Ziebas, Curtiss Knives, Sharp By Designs, North Arm Skaha, ZT 0454, WE Knives Eschaton, G&G Hawk Orbit, Tashi Rowdy HiTech, Microtech Stitch, Benchmade 698-181 Gold Class Foray, some balisongs, and a Graham Razel but I'll be happy to hear other offers. Worst I can do is pass and cash can be added either way.
1. Spartan Blade Kranos - like new - Traded
Blade Show 2017 American-made knife of the year
Well built 3.5" ball bearing flipper
Stonewashed S35VN blade
Contoured and milled ti frame with a pretty complex carbon fiber inlay that feels near-seamless
The entire interior of the handle slabs has a tight chevron milling pattern
Milled arrow clip
Not completely broken in but already flips reliably
Solid lockup and perfect centering
2. Benchmade 808 Loco - brand new in box - Sold
First production #231 of 1000
Full sized, not the mini
An overbuilt axis lock folder from BM
Thick S30V blade with black G-10 scales
Smooth action, solid lockup, and well centered
Feels great in hand
3. Cold Steel Espada XL - very good condition
Insane 7.5" polished blade and measures 16.75" overall when open
Handle is polished double-bolstered aluminum with a polished G-10 scale on either side
Waves open with the thumbplate, perfect for scaring your non-knife friends
There are faint scratches/handling marks on the polished parts of the knife
Locks up tight with the Tri-Ad lock
The monstrous blade sits centered in the handle
