Per the new BF Best Practices, I am more than happy to verify who I am and that I have the items in any reasonable way, Goods and Services is always an option for my buyers.
If you are outside the US contact me for a quote and to see if I am okay shipping to your location. Canadians can commit to buy with the understanding shipping will be more.
No trades
I will not hold it based on a conditional commitment. Example: "I will take it if...", this is not fair to other buyers.
Happy to entertain solid and reasonable offers or negotiate multiples via PM, not in this thread, but the first commitment gets it.
Important note: I will not be dropping prices in the thread. If you are waiting for reduced prices your best bet is to reach out to discuss. I am happy to listen to offers and package prices.
Descriptions are thorough describing condition visible by my eye, in a well-lit workshop. I can send more pictures, texting will be fastest if you send a phone #.
Thanks for looking!
Colonial Ti
This is the full titanium version. Knife is essentially new and unused but had a thick edge when I got it, so it's been professionally thinned to about 15 degrees with a near mirror polish, then a 20 degree micro bevel was added for durability. Very sharp and easy to maintain. This knife has "GW III MKT" engraved on the clip. I was able to verify the story I was given that in the past Greg Medford has thrown George Washington Parties for dealers and VIP's, this was given out as a gift at the 3rd one. A neat piece of Medford history in an increasingly hard to find configuration. Blade appears centered to me, lockup is early and very solid with smooth action, thumb flicks nicely. I do not have the original box or paperwork as it was purchased second hand.
$425

Genesis Ti
This is the full thickness ti version with 1/4" blade, finished in Medfords UBER rare Obsidian DLC. Very few knives were ever finished this way as it is a much more in depth and expensive process than the matte DLC they use most of the time. The blade and scale slabs are Obsidian DLC and the hardware is flamed bronze titanium. The pictures are incredibly difficult to get right (especially when you suck at photography) so I've included a couple to show the reflection. Pocketed a couple of times and despite the specs the Genesis Ti is very pocket friendly. As new condition and possibly one of a kind configuration. I am the first owner and it includes everything shipped from Medford.
$1350


Praetorian Swift
Green anodized scales, satin S45VN blade. Fires great, locks up rock solid, blade centered, nothing negative to report. New and unused but I did professionally reprofile the edge to approximately 15 degrees and a 1000 grit finish, then a 20 degree per side final micro bevel was added for durability and easy maintenance on crock sticks. There is a pin size nick in the finish on the clip side where I may have bumped it with the diamond stones. I am the original owner, includes everything from Medford.
$250 ***SOLD***
Theseus
New and unused but it looks like I may have honed the edge on ceramic rods, very sharp. Smooth action, almost broke in, great lockup with early engagement Blue with light purples anodized scales, satin finished blade. I am the original owner and will include everything from medford.
$390

Praetorian Genesis T
Beautiful knife, hated adding it to the list! PVD blade, deeply textured scales (forget what they call the pattern) that were PVD coated and then bronze anodized. Titanium hardware with bronze anodizing. Perfect QC, early lockup is rock solid, blade is centered. Gorgeous with premium finishing. I am the original owner and have not carried or used it. Includes everything from medford.
$600 ***SOLD***
Praetorian Ti
The OG Praetorian with full 1/4" thick blade. This is an amazing combo and one you will likely never see another with the same finishes. I showed it to Greg and Geoff at Blade Show last year and they hadn't seen one like it either. Vulcan blade finish with satin rose gold anodized scales, with the edges and relief's done in cement. Perfect action that's buttery smooth, rock solid early lock engagement and blade is centered when closed. This has seen some pocket time but not cut much if anything because I always carries a companion smaller blade. There is a little hazing around the show side stop pin but it's under anodizing and I think is some minor residual from the stone wash before it was satin finished. only visible in certain light. This is sure to be the conversation piece at almost any gathering of knife nuts, it always has been for me. I am the original owner and it includes everything from Medford.

Marauder, full size
This was a Blade Show exclusive a few years back. S35VN tumbled blade with machine satin grinds. The scales are blue anodized with hints of purple and has the pinstripe option where the perimeter edges of the scales are mirror polished. Satin silver titanium hardware except the clip that is lightly blue to bronze anodized. perfect QC, buttery smooth with early and solid lockup. It's been in my pocket a few times but not signs of use. I am the original owner but I do not have the original packaging. It will be shipped in a nice quality folder punch.
$490

187 Tanto
New and unused, purple to bronze anodizing with DLC coated S90v blade. Action is firm but very smooth, still needs broke in, lockup is early and tight. Can be thumb flicked open easily with a touch of wrist and will only get better with more use. I am the first owner and everything shipped by Medford is included.
$375

TFF Fat Daddy
Beautiful example of a Fat Daddy which features a PVD coated S35VN blade that measures .259 at the spine. The .186 scales are a polished stonewash that's been deeply bronze anodized, titanium hardware is silver satin. This is the nicest Fat Daddy I've seen and I have owned/handled quite a few. Action is still stiff but smooth, with a little more break in it will glide like it's on hydraulics.Lockup is early and very solid. I am the original owner, the knife is new and unused and will include everything shipped by Medford. The marks that look like scratches on the show side are stonewash glints that catch the light, they are part of the original finish and have been anodized over.
