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 ZDP Stretch, Spyderco Smock, Striders, Protechs, GEC #46 Whaler, Olamics, Chris Reeves, Hinderers, Ferrum Forges, Ziebas, Curtiss Knives, Sharp By Designs, North Arm Skaha, Koenig Arius, 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
Blade Show 2017 American-made knife of the year

Contoured and milled ti frame with a pretty complex carbon fiber inlay that feels near-seamless

Is the Spartan still available?

I've got a bunch of knives I'm looking to trade out. Just for reference:

1) BNIB Benchmade Crooked River with stabilized wood handles (Uncarried, untouched, completely brand new)

2) Like New Benchmade Triage 915 with Orange scales and black, non-serrated blade - I both this off someone else on the forum, carried it for a day, then sent this to BM for Lifesharp service and haven't touched it since

3) Like New in Box semi-custom Brous Bionic 2.0 with Black Anodized aluminum handles and black D2 blade, serial # 393/1000 - Currently at Brous for cleaning/re-lubricating

4) Like New in Box Spyderco PM3 with black G10 handles and S30V blade - Currently at Spyderco for cleaning/re-lubricating/resharpening

5) Like New in Box Spyderco PM2 with "Blurple" G10 handles and S110V blade - Currently at Spyderco for cleaning/re-lubricating/resharpening

6) Like New in Box Kizer SLT

7) Used ESEE 5 with micarta handles and black sheath

I can send pictures of any of these except the Spyderco PM2 and PM3 (which are currently with Spyderco).

Let me know if anything interests you.

Thanks
