Letting a few go today to make up for some recent purchases. Only looking to sell, no trades please!
Spyderco K2 (C) - $190 SOLD!

C rating. This has several superficial scratches on both sides of the blade that are only visible in direct, bright lighting. It looks to have been sharpened but I can't really tell. If it was, it was done well and is shaving sharp the entire length of the edge. Action is smooth and lockup is solid, feels like a giant Spydiechef with zero lock stick. The lanyard tube was rattling when I received it so while it was disassembled for cleaning I put a dab of Elmer's glue on the tube to keep it in place (would easily wash off with water). Does not come with box.
DLT Exclusive Para3 LW (B) - $125 SOLD

B rating for some light carry and use, and a light stropping. Still has the factory edge. I carried it a few times and used it to cut some tape on a package, and I believe the previous owner did the same. It has been disassembled, cleaned and lubed with Diawa oil. The blade slightly favors the non-washer side of the knife like most of these do. The action is drop shut with no significant blade play. It does have a tiny bit of lock stick that would probably go away over time. Comes with original packaging and DLT sticker.
APurvis Primordial MK1 (C) - $180

C rating due to sharpening. I have carried it once but have not used the new edge. This one had a roll in the tip from the factory so I put a new 18 dps edge on it with a Wicked Edge system. It was sharpened up to 2500 grit and stropped to 1 micron. It came out pretty well for a recurve blade - please see the pictures. The heal of the blade was very thick behind the edge so I finished up the last 1/8 inch (probably less than that) with a convex edge. The action on this is nearly drop shut and extremely smooth. The blade very slightly favors the show side but can be corrected with tightening of the pivot. Comes with a non-branded taco pouch.
