Hello fellow B.F.ers. Up for sale today is a very nice Wiseman slip joint. After some research I found the blade to be made out of D2 and with a length of 3 inches and an Overall Length of just over 6 1/2 inches. The blade is flawless, it has no scratches of any kind and upon looking at it with a magnifying glass I found 3 pin sized dots on the blade that look to just be some sort of debris but I wasn't about to try to remove it.
The handle appears to be made out of black Micarta and is in very good condition. The only blemishes I can find are some very light surface scratches on the mirrored portion where the "pivot" would be located on a framelock. It also has a functioning lanyard hole.
This knife is the perfect size for to edc or possibly a collector as I have been told by numerous people that Wiseman is one of the most under rated makers of our time. The knife has a halfstop and then snaps firmly into place.
It has a wonderful blade shape with a very unique and beautiful swedge on both sides of the blade. The knife is very well centered when closed and feels great in the hand. The price for the knife is $175.00 net (3.5% for Pay Pal fees) and I will cover shipping via USPS Priority fully Insured of course. This is a great piece and a great addition to a collection, made by a maker that is highly under rated and makes a beautiful and very well functioning knife.
*On the tang there are the initials MTF, I thought they were clearly visible in the pictures, I will take some to show it clearly.

Thank you for more pics but are those someone's initials or are they some other mark that Gene uses?
 
I would guess the F denotes year of manufacture. I have a 2014 wiseman with an E on it. Not sure about the MT.
 
I'm not sure, that is how I got it, I am the second owner and I never bothered to ask to be completely honest. It's just an overall really nice and well built knife. If anyone needs any further pics please just let me know. Thanks.
*If this helps, I know for certain that those are not the initials of the previous owner, as his name started with a "G".
