I have for sale a Gayle Bradley 1 with the non-skeletonized liners and M4 steel. I am the original owner and its only user. It has been gently used and carried a handful of times to slice food and open mail. There is some slight patina on the blade that I have tried to show in the pics, but it is hard to see. I also no longer have the original box as I originally thought I would never sell this.
Some time ago, the knife was sent into Tom Krein for the sole purpose of shaping the cover and liner on the opposite side of the liner lock so as to allow a user to more easily disengage the liner lock. Tom's work is nothing short of perfection and the mod was well worth it. The mod is visible on the bottom of the knife just behind the area where your index finger would go. The mod is subtle, but it can be seen in the first two pics.
If not for the slight patina and Tom's work, this knife would easily pass for new. It has rock solid lock-up, the blade is perfectly centered, and there is zero blade movement in any direction when open and closed. The carbon fiber is perfect and this knife functions both flawlessly and spectacularly.
Many folks believe this knife will become a collectors item. If you have one that is new and unused and want to keep it that way, but are dying to get one that is slightly used to be a workhorse, you could not ask for a better Gayle Bradley 1. I just prefer the shape of other Spydercos over this one.
This can be yours for $120 shipped CONUS with payment by PP. No trades please. The first unequivocal "I'll take it!" here in this thread gets the knife.
