After calling it in the sale thread he asks me via PM to come down on the price. "will you take 270? if not whats the lowest you'll take? I'm asking this cause idk how dull then knife is."
I should have know right then he was going to be a problem but I responded with: " It is hair popping sharp, it just needs to be stropped in my opinion. Since I'm not keeping it though I'm not going to mess with it.
All that being said. I'd take $290 and I can ship it first thing tomorrow.

Today he received the knife and sends this message. "I got the knife and its in a lot worst condition than i thought... First the knife was super dry and has really bad lock stick i cleaned it and it got better but still there and it has surface rust on the blade where the washers so it feels gritty un like my other sebenzas plus it has a lot more snail trails then the pics showed... if these don't get fixed i want a refund and you paying shipping cause its un fair to to sell someone a knife like that.."
Then this one. "It feels like this isn't the OG blade cause it has so much lock stick."
Before sending both of these messages he sends one to the seller I got the knife from who backed up my description and refused to corroborate his claims.
I replied to the messages above with this:
"Hahahahahahahahahaha.......
I provided many pictures of the handle and blade condition. You not examining the pictures prior to purchase does not make me responsible for your preconceived notions.
There was no lock stick when it left my hands. I also disassembled it the day I took the pictures for the ad to clean and lube it. There wasn't a spec of rust on it.
Also, I came down on the price after you had called it at the advertised price because you were scared of the edge/bevel, which I also described accurately through PM and provided pictures of.
Had there been rust or lock stick I would have contacted the guy I got it from to ask questions. By the way, the guy I bought it from already let me know you contacted him about it. He's prepared to back me up.
Lastly, I won't be paying for anything. You disassembled it, it's your baby now. Had you not done this we possibly could have worked something out. Since these problems did not exist while it was in my care I can only assume you caused them during disassembly and reassembly.
Good luck with it.
