LNIB Brian Tighe Tighe Stick in BG 42 - Just got this back from Brian. He blasted the body and replaced the lock bar. This knife is over 12 years old (confirmed by the man himself.) The lock up is perfection and the knife functions perfectly. The handle design is amazingly comfortable (I have mid sized hands.) The blade design and grind are unbelieveable. Putting some feelers out here. I do not expect to let this one go easily.

Lightly used Alan Davis All Ti Folder (with Pivot tool) - The entire knife is made of blue anodized Ti. The blade is carbidized on one side and sharpened on the other. It is hollow V ground. The action is pretty smooth considering the knife squeeked when I purchased it. Its gotten quite smooth with use though there is a bit grittyness if one were to press the blade hard into the lock side while opening. The lock up is perfection. Centering is spot on and the detent is perfect. The knife runs on Alan's proprietary bearing system and flicks open with ease.

Wilkins Full Size Griptillian in Tan / Black G10 w/D2 Blade - This is a D2 black coated Large Griptillian. It has seen use and has been sharpened. The scales are relatively new but also seen pocket time. The G10 is "layered". That is, they alternate Tan and Black for a really cool effect. I no longer have the original scales. Knife functions perfectly and the scales are quite cool. Recently got my hands on a Wilkins mini grip and that is more my speed.

LNIB Benchmade 3350 Mini Infidel - Catch and Release as part of a trade. I can't carry it so off it goes. The knife is mint and fires with authority. Action is smooth and the knife shows no sign of use. There is some coating missing near the button (e.g. its been opened and closed a few times) and the blade shows feint coating wear near the center (again from opening / closing.) I believe these are discontinued so its a pretty rare find.

Curtiss F3 3.5 Inch w/stand offs - Got this LNIB from another forum member and LNIB its stayed. The knife has seen pocket time (around the house) but no use. The knife is super smooth and has a nice strong detent. This makes for an amazing flipper. I don't really want to get rid of it but its just sitting around and might make sense to cycle the collection a bit. There is a tiny scuff on the pivot; I tried getting it into the pics but I am not sure that it shows.
