Greetings,

I'm trying to scare up a little extra cash to pay off a custom knife, so I'm putting up a few things over the next couple of days.

First up is a used, but not abused Benchmade BM-140 Nimravus. This is the older model that came with the nice kydex sheath and clip, rather than the newer weirdness they have now. This has the combo edge on it. The only thing it was used for, was breaking down some cardboard boxes I had one day, and that's it. I've not sharpened it, so as to give the new owner a choice as to how they want it done, but it's still sharp enough. ;)

The coating on the blade has some scuffs on it from the cardboard, but it's nothing that detracts from its functionality. I've got some pics below for you to look at. Please excuse the crap quality, as I've not got any decent lighting on my bench these days. I've lightened them as much as possible so you can see the scuffing on the coating. The gold-ish color you see on the serrated edge in the first shot is a result of the lights in my office, and not discoloration on the blade. I'm also 99% sure I've got the original box as well.

Price is set at $80 -> $75 -> $70, shipped priority mail w/insurance within the U.S. I'm only looking to ship this one in the U.S. guys, sorry. There will also be a 3-day inspection period as well, to make sure you're happy with the purchase. Please feel free to PM me with any questions you may have, or post them in the thread. Thanks!

Any idea what the blade steel is on this? I have exactly the same sheath as this on my BM 145 (cub). How long ago did they switch to the newer ones?

Hmmmm...I think it's 154CM. I'll have to check the box when I get home tonight. As for the sheaths, this one is from the first production, and I know they've had 2 subsequent redesigns since that time. So, it's the first of at least 3 different styles I know of. ;)
 
Nope.

If it have no steel markings on the blade and the oldest logo, it's an ATS34.
