I am raising funds for an engagement ring, so I'm selling off extras and duplicates. This means some knives I don't want to sell are going on the block. Prices include shipping and Paypal fees in Canada and the US. Paypal please.

4) Benchmade 710-2 in M390, This knife is a user that I bought to turn into a project knife. Right now I have it set up with a set of Holey CF scales ala Keyman (I don't know if he did them as I am not the original owner.) But they look the part. Very light weight, Also have the original scales. The knife is in decent shape, perfectly centered. The blade does have some scuff from a previous owner working on their recurve sharpening skills. At least that's what it looks like. The photos show the area in detail (and it looks worse in the photos than in person. The full views are more representative of the real appearance in my opinion.
I have over $265 invested in this as it sits. There is no box or papers, although there might be a Benchmade black baggie... I can't remember right now. Despite the flaws this is a premium knife in a premium steel, and it will make a great user. (the original -2's seem to be heat treated harder than the more recent ones with the blue/black G10, based on the testing I have done.)
SOLD

5) Spyderco Farid K2 in CPM 10V. This is a large folder in a barebones design, but it makes an awesome slicer/utility knife. This is a duplicate that I have carried a couple times, smudges in photos are fingerprints on the blade. There is one light scratch on the clip, and the stonewash finish on the Ti scales/frame, hides snail trails. The CPM 10V is run HARD, (tested at over Rc64). This knife will hold an edge for a long long time. The knife was bought new in Canada. And the box, papers etc, are all there. I would call this like new apart from the clip scratch which I have in a close up but is still hard to see..
Asking $300

6) Darrin Sanders Kiridashi, (smaller knife) one year old, carried regularly, has a low angle chisel (zero grind) and was sharpened on DMT diamond stones twice in the year I have had it. I am the first and only owner. Comes with a paracord wrap to make gripping easier, and a kydex sheath. This is in CPM 10V, if you know the steel you know it takes an edge and holds it well. If you don't know the steel and want to try it here's your chance. There are two small marks on the one side from hardness testing, it came with those. Overall length is 4.5", cutting edge is approx. 1.6"
I paid $150 US plus taxes upon import.

SOLD!!!.

Looks really great! I would love to buy it and you are selling it out to buy an engagement ring. That what's surprised me. What I did for raising an engagement ring is almost similar to yours, but not a knife. I sold my bike for it. Might sound crazy, but I really did it. Then I bought a beautiful cushion cut engagement ring from Phera diamonds.
