Spyderco Paramilitary 2 Tanto Blade, S30V - Blade HQ Exclusive

Both knives are BNIB and have never been pocketed, used, carried, sharpened or even cut anything, not even paper. Only taken out and admired some over the years.

Letting them go reluctantly because I never carry them.

Action and centering on both is flawless, best of any Spydercos I've ever had. Great edge from the factory as Spyderco is typically known for.

Both come with all original packaging : box, papers, and informational leaflet.

1x Satin finish S30V - SOLD

1x DLC coated S30V - SOLD

Spyderco Gayle Bradley 1, M4

Listing as USED because it has some very minor pin point sized spots of corrosion shown in the pics. You'll have to zoom in to see them, they're the black spots that look like dust or very fine dirt.

There's some patina or staining near the pivot area as shown as well.

I'm the second owner and have never carried, used, sharpened, or cut anything with it. It was listed as new when I bought it from the previous owner. It definitely looked like it was brand new. Blade just wasn't protected with oil which is necessary for these high-carbon, non-stainless steel blades.

Has some minor patina which appears as a slight cloudiness on the primary bevels. Can probably be polished out if desired. Blade has been coated with Eezox to prevent further patina or corrosion.

Comes with original box and informational leaflet. (not shown)

This is the later generation which has the skeletonized steel liner.

Excellent action, centering, and lockup.

A magnificent (and gorgeous!) EDC work knife!

SOLD




Spyderco Police 4, G10, K390

Original Spyderco Police 4 with G10 scales and K390 blade steel.

Has a bit of cloudy patina on the blade and a slightly funky grind from the factory on the primary bevel near the tip on the show side. I tried to highlight this with my pictures.

Listing as USED due to the aforementioned issues but this has not been sharpened, carried, or used at all.

Comes with original box and informational leaflet. (not shown)

$260 TYD SOLD

Cold Steel Recon 1 Desert Warrior, S35vn - Blade HQ Exclusive

Not to be confused with the abominations that are the "Dessert Warrior" version of knives! (one "s" vs two "ss")

98% new. Copper coated blade and lock, OD green G10 handle. I'm the second owner and I never used, carried, or sharpened it. Previous owner said it was new and it looked unused, only opened/closed a number of times. Factory edge. Does not come with box or a left-handed clip as they normally do.

Knife has been opened a number of times and the coating has worn off on the blade tang where it slides against the underside of the lock bar, but that's it.

Any dark discoloration on the blade is only from oil or fingerprints and will wash off (or add light coat of oil to make it all uniform as well).

Does not come with box ( unless I can find it, lol)

$150 TYD SOLD






Cold Steel Broken Skull, CTS-XHP

Old Pre-GSM Cold Steel Broken Skull with the sought after CTS-XHP blade steel. These were later replaced with S35VN blade steel when XHP was no longer available. Awesome thin blade with excellent and durable DLC coating. WAY better than the old black coating they used to use! This coating will last for many, many years.

Lightweight and thin for easy carry even in running shorts. Very sturdy with the Triad lock and stiff G10 scales despite its light weight. 4" long blade, lots of cutting power and rides relatively deep in the pocket.

BNIB. Never used, carried, sharpened, or cut anything.

Does not come with box ( unless I can find it, lol)

$130 TYD SOLD

 

[The Knife Life]

Benchmade Large Adamas, Cruwear (63-65Rc!)
Both are BNIB. Never used, carried, sharpened, or cut anything.

I checked the locks on both of these to make sure they do not have the issue where the lock fails from not engaging very far past the rounded blade tang. These are both good, have good engagement, and have secure locking!

Both come with box, ballistic sheath, and mounting attachment as shown.

Please be aware, these are the LARGE FULL SIZE Adamas, not the mini Adamas!

1x Tungsten Gray w/black G10 handles SOLD

1x Flat Dark Earth w/OD Green G10 handles available (please note that this isn't the right box, it's for the partially serrated one. This knife is plain edge though, not serrated)

$235 each TYD BOTH SOLD

Microtech Socom Elite Clip Point, Plain Edge, M390

ALWAYS SOLD OUT EVERYWHERE! GET IT WHILE YOU CAN!
BNIB, never carried, used, sharpened, or cut anything with it.

I'm the second owner. Factory edge, no use that I can detect. Looks brand new. Perfect centering. Lockup and action is great as per usual for Microtech.

Comes with factory box and pamphlet (not shown).

$375 TYD





Microtech Socom Elite Clip Point, Partially Serrated, M390

ALWAYS SOLD OUT EVERYWHERE! GET IT WHILE YOU CAN!
Listing as USED only because there is some wear on the edges on the pocket clip (it'll happen to brand new clips if you even just look at them funny) and very lightly on the edges of the spine but this is very minor. Virtually no snail trails unless you really scrutinize it under bright light. Looks good to the naked eye.

I'm the second owner. Factory edge, no use that I can detect. Looks brand new aside from the aforementioned minor cosmetic issues. Perfect centering. Lockup and action is great as per usual for Microtech.

Comes with factory box and pamphlet. (not shown)

$350 TYD

Zero Tolerance 0350BW, G10, S30V
USED but in great condition. Sent off to ZT/KAI for resharpening a few years ago and they did a terrible job (too obtuse and burned a small area) so it could use a professional sharpening to put a proper keen edge on it and get back to proper steel.

I believe these are now discontinued.

Great action and assisted opening mechanism still works great. Fires hard and fast. Lock engagement is great. I'm the original owner and did not carry or use this a whole lot years ago when I bought it. Maybe a month or two of light usage cutting open some boxes or tags off clothes (you know, real tactical stuff). Been sitting in storage since then.

I believe I still have the box for this but I will need to check.

$120 TYD SOLD
