Used Benchmade 732BT Black G-10/154CM/Axis lock. Elishewitz design (but doesn't have his name on the blade) I got this knife used, and used it some more. Good knife. Has some cosmetic marks, BT2 coating is scuffed, but knife is 100% functional. A great discontinued user, and if you don't mind a knife with some character, it is still a gorgeous knife. The blade actually looks way better than it shows in the pictures.

Benchmade 812 Mini-AFCK ATS34/Black G-10/Cobra skin inlays/Recurve I bought this knife as a regular 812s, but I don't like serrations, so I ground them off and gave it a recurve instead. Huge improvement, and the blade looks great. And cuts great as well. Then I tried my hand at cobra skin inlays. They didn't turn out so well. So this is probably going to be a user, or a project knife for someone. I'll even send some more cobra skin so you can redo the inlays if you want (or you can redo them with anything else). You might even be able to get new scales from BM (I haven't checked). Solid lockup. To compensate for a design flaw in the 812 that has the clip cut uncomfortably into the finger grove, I've replaced the clip with one from a CRKT M16-03Z. (A clip which also improves the look and feel of the 705 and 94X). I'll include a standard BM clip so you can switch it back if you want.

Email me if you want higher resolution pics than PhoboBucket will allow.
In trade, I'm interested in 610, 530 (or two), 806d2, Spyderco Kriss, Civilian, all black ATR, MT Manual Vector (Plain edge only for all of those), and not much else.
