I'm be happy to answer any questions you might have. If you're interested, feel free to contact me through private message or email, whichever your favorite method is. I also check my threads fairly often so I'll see your posts. I'm open to any trade offers. If you're just interested in a straightforward sale, that can be arranged as well. Thanks for your time.
For trades, I'm looking for an: original Spyderco Civilian, BM 928 Proxy, BM Hunt Crooked River Limited, Emerson Big Bulldog SF, CQC 7, Grayman Satu, and blades from Maniago, Italy but I'll be happy to hear other offers. Worst I can do is pass and cash can be added either way.
If you are planning to send me an email through the forum, please post on the thread as well to let me know. Some of those are lost in transit and never reach my inbox.
1. Spyderco Shabaria Sprint - near mint
Carbon fiber scales and VG-10 blade
Long discontinued model
Never used or carried
lockup is solid and the blade is centered
Light storage marks on the clip and lock side
Comes with all the original packaging and paperwork
2. Spyderco Jot Singh Khalsa Sprint - near mint
Traditional Sikh design
Limited sprint run from Spyderco that is going to be rare in the future
Well centered VG-10 blade that locks up solid with no play in any direction
Very light marks on the blade and a spot in the G-10 next to one of the screws
Comes with all the original packaging and paperwork
3. Benchmade 921 Switchback - near mint condition
Warren Osborne design; feels like a 940 with an extra blade
First production of a rare, discontinued model; #357 of 500
Main blade is S30V and features an Axis lock while the secondary slipjoint blade is 440C
Both blades are dead center and the primary blade locks up solid
Comes with all the original packaging
I am not the first owner but as far as I can tell, the knife has been very well taken care of over the years. It doesn't look like it has been used or even carried much. The only imperfections I could find were faint marks on the pocketclip that I couldn't get on camera.
4. Benchmade 710 D2 - very good condition - Traded
Has been carried and used but doesn't show much wear
Very faint marks on the blade and wear in the coating of the clip
Comes with all the original packaging and paperwork
5. Benchmade 909S AXIS Stryker - like new in box --> Traded
Very lightly used; absolutely no signs of wear
Stonewashed, partially serrated tanto blade
High traction G10 scales
Will arrive with all of the original packaging
6. Benchmade 890S Torrent - used - Traded
3.6 inch blade
De-assisted
Clip is bent but still functions; the spare clip and screws are included
Blade has some scratches
It looks like it was put back together strangely. One side is slanted but the knife still functions fine and it can be easily fixed if you re-assemble it.
Comes with just the knife and the spare clip
7. Benchmade 530 Pardue - brand new in box - Traded
3.25 inch blade
Weighs less than 2 oz
Never carried or used
Comes with everything from the factory

Signs of carry on the G-10
Blade shows some scratches from sharpening
Still in excellent working condition, no issues at all
Comes with all the original packaging and paperwork
9. Viper Keeper - brand new in box
Made in Maniago, Italy
3.75 inch D2 blade with a full flat grind

Deep-carry wire clip
Smooth action and can be waved open easily
