Howdy, BF! Downsizing continues, with close-up photos of show side, clip side, centering, and lockup in the album below. 
Cold Steel Talwar 5.5" - WITHDRAWN TO RELIST - Carried once or twice, never used to cut. Factory edge is frighteningly sharp, solid lockup, smooth action, S35VN steel, Tri-Ad is easy to disengage. Perfect example, and looks like new. This is a GSM release, so it does not include a lefty clip. Original owner. Pricing is all over the place for these -- they're $247 on Blade HQ right now -- but I paid $160. Includes box.
TRM Atom - SOLD (was $180) - Carried a few times, opened a couple boxes. Laser-like factory edge, slices like a dream, solid lockup, easily flickable. Not quite drop-shut yet, but it's not even fully broken-in. Made in the USA with exceptionally tight tolerances, CPM-20CV steel, titanium parts, and weighs just 3 ounces. The only sign that I've carried it is the darkening of the micarta scales; if you bought a new one, it would look like this in a couple of days. Original owner, bought directly from TRM for $205. Includes box.
Southern Grind Bad Monkey - WITHDRAWN TO RELIST - Top-notch fit and finish, solid lockup, easily flickable, made in the USA, Sandvik 14C28N steel, and one of my all-time favorite handle textures. Factory edge, razor sharp. Looks like new, with the exception that I gently adjusted the pocket clip so that it contacts the scale (if you prefer the 1/16" gap between clip and scale that these ship with from the factory, it's an easy operation to reverse). Second owner; first owner did not appear to have used it. Sells for $249 new. Includes box (which is pretty beaten-up).
I also have a Microtech pen, several hot rod/enthusiast flashlights, a Strider spanner, wave mods, and pocket clips for sale here:

The first "I'll take it" in this thread followed by a PM (or post on my profile, if you can't send PMs) gets dibs. (Questions, "I'll take it if," and the like aren't the same as claiming a knife.) If I haven't seen your PM/profile post within an hour, I'll assume you changed your mind and the knife will be available to others.
