Looking to clean out my knife drawer and I want to get rid of many knives and hopefully get back one in return. All knives pictured are in 90+% except where I have noted.

First knife is an old Schrade lockback hunter with brass bolsters and a cream colored handle. This is an old one made back in the schrade glory days before they went under.
Second knife is a Spyderco Civilian.The Civilian is the first of several folding knives designed and produced only as a law enforcement back-up defense weapon. The Civilian will be produced in very limited quanites. The shape of the blade does not permit straight penetration. It is designed to "slash" in a self defense situation. The 12GS uses G-10 handles. G-10 is a medium weave, fabric base, high pressure "E" glass epoxy composite (laminate) with 55,000 psi tensile strenght and 65,000 psi compressive strenght. This material provides exceptional strenght and resistance in extreme condidtions. It has excellent tactile and grip characteristics as well as good thermal insulating qualities. It is approximately 40% lighter than aluminum and is impervious to most chemicals. G-10 is one of the best materials for knife handles. The Civilian is covered under Pat.#4347665 and D. 344,006 with additional patents pending. Spyderco padded zipper pouch included.
length overall 9 3/16" (233 mm) blade length 4 1/8" (105 mm) blade steel VG-10 length closed 5 3/16" (132 mm) cutting edge 3 3/4" (95 mm) weight 4.75 oz (134 g) hole diameter 15/32" (12 mm) blade thickness 1/8" (3 mm) handle material G-10
The third knife is Cold Steel Safemaker 2 Specifications:
Blade: 3 1/4"
Overall: 5"
Weight: 2.5oz.
Thick: 4.6mm
AUS 8A Stainless steel blade
with Kraton® handle.
Secure-Ex® boot/belt sheath
Then we have a couple of cheapies a Gil Hibben Double shadow by United cutlery and Smith and Wesson Strider knock off. Both are in like new condition. The S&W sheath does have some fraying at the bottom of the sheath though.
Next is a Boker + Rampage, designed by famous knifemaker R. J. Martin, that features a 4 3/4" deep hollow ground blade made of 440C stainless steel. The blade of this Boker knife has a top swedge and a notched thumb rest for secure grip. The Rampage Knife has full tang construction, pronounced choil, finger grooved black Micarta handle slabs and a lanyard hole. A custom injection molded ABS sheath with Tek-Lok adapter is included with this Boker knife. The Boker Rampage Knife has an overall length of 9 1/2", and weighs 5.8 ounces.
There is some rub on the right side of the micarta just where it enters the sheath but other than that the knife is in primo condition.
Then a Cold Steel Desperado The Desperado™ features a 5" Nogales™ clip point blade and an innovative egg shaped handle. It effectively combines the performance sensibilities of a push dagger with the versatility of a conventional boot knife. No matter what portion of the double curved, razor sharp edge makes initial contact, a strong, inward drawing motion will force the remainder of the blade through the target, delivering a deep, massive cut.
Special attention was paid to the knife point. Designed to be sharp, yet thick enough to withstand hard impact and even light prying, the Desperado's™ point has strong advantages over other blades that have less pronounced curves.
Specifications:
Blade: 5"
Overall: 8 3/4"
Thickness: 4mm
Weight: 4.5 oz.
Steel: 420 Sub Zero Quench
This is an old model that was given to me by a friend who used it in undercover work and the blade does have sheath rub and the sheath had been modified by him to ride even deeper. I have put it back to it's original condition but this one is a user.
Lastly I have a Benchmade Snody Instigator ( I actually thought about keeping this one as it is toot sweet ). Skeletonized Handle Decreases Weight
Versatile Sheath Offers Multiple Carry Options
Chisel Grind Blade Improves Durability
Ergonomic Handle Enhances Comfort
Plain Edge
BP1 Coated Blade and Handle
Skeletonized, Full Tang Handle
Detailed Specifications:

Blade Thickness: 0.123"
Blade Material: AUS-8 Stainless Steel, BP Coated

Blade Style: Modified Wharncliff
Weight: 2.34oz.

Closed Length: 7.38"
Sheath Material: Snap-Fit Molded Kydex / Thermoplastic with Tether

So there you have it. 8 knives up for trade. I would like to trade all for one knife. I am interested in Striders. I like the MT, VB, GS, BG, MV, MARK 1, TH, GW, AND EB. I really have a lust for the GS and MV models the most. Used is okay as long as you can supply pics for me. If you have a Strider fixed not listed in my wish list you can still hit me up. I would also be interested in Busse War Boar.
You can reach me at Lat_Mallonee@yahoo.com with any questions.
