Very good to excellent overall condition. 154-CM blade is centered. Zero play in any direction. Tiny tiny bit of lock stick. There are some relatively faint marks on either side of the blade towards the tip. The rest of the blade looks unused. Edge looks to be original Microtech factory edge, without any nicks, chips or rolls. The aluminum handles have rubber inserts unlike the current model which has "grip tape". There is one slightly more noticeable, but still faint, scratch right above the clip. Otherwise, handles looks mint. All hardware in great condition, nothing mangled or stripped. The stonewashed pocket clip has some faint scratches but just about invisible to the naked eye. For a knife that's almost 12 years old, it's really in great shape. If it weren't for the marks on the blade, I would have rated it to be near mint to mint overall condition. Knife only, no box/papers.

Overall Length: 9.25"
Blade Length: 4"
Weight: 4.4 oz.

Price: $269 delivered, PayPal Good & Services.

Discontinued model from 2018. Excellent to near mint overall condition. The action on this knife is INCREDIBLY SMOOTH. Seriously a poor man's Shirogorov. It can be opened with thumb on the nail nick or be Spydie flicked open using the nail nick. Drop shut action. M390 blade has a beautiful hand rubbed satin finish and is perfectly centered. Only flaw is "blemish" underneath the nail nick where I Spydie flicked it open a bunch of times. Edge is original factory edge without nicks, chips or rolls. No play in any direction. Absolutely zero lock stick. Carbon fiber/titanium handles are in near mint condition as is the pocket clip. Comes with original CKF pouch, COA card, polishing cloth, complete set of replacement pivot hardware, screws and pocket clip. Even the CKF chocolate.

Overall Length: 8.5"
Blade Length: 3.6"
Weight: 4.5 oz.

Price: $269 delivered, PayPal Good & Services.
