If you have any questions about what's here, let me know and I'll do my best to help you out. For more details, specs, or pictures, just ask and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. I don't get notifications for profile messages so PMs or shooting me an email at kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com is the best way to reach me. I also check my threads every once in a while so I'll usually see your posts. I can work with you on the price for some of these and I'm open to trades. If you don't have much feedback or forum history, I might ask you to ship first. Prices include all shipping and PayPal fees in the US. I'll be happy to ship international but the buyer will need to assume all risks and help cover the cost of shipping. The knives will come with what's shown unless otherwise stated. Thanks for taking a look.

For trades, I'm looking for: Jon Grahams, Ochs Worx, Yunas, Marlowes, Tashi collabs and customs, GTCs, Sharknivcos, RJ Martins, Dalibors, Broadwells, Black Snow Customs, VanderMeulens, Chris Goodwyns, Rogovets, Mosiers, Guthries, Rotten Designs, ZT 0454, G&G Deadlock, Rockstead Shun, and maybe a custom Emerson or just Striders in general but I'm always open to other offers. I like seeing what's out there and the worst I can do is pass. Cash can be added either way.

2. Phantom Steelworks Operator XL - like new - $2000
The biggest folder Chris made, not many were made
The blade, frame, clip, and both sides of the pivot have been murdered (textured)
4.5" blade in CPM-3V and with his unique "unearthed" finish
The entire front side and the clip are timascus and the texture makes it really shimmer in the light
Lockside is flamed ti
Inside of the frame is blasted
Has the best action I've felt on a Phantom Steelworks
Snaps open with a nice double-click and locks up tight
Centering is dead on

3. John W. Smith Small F-5 - like new - $700
Small Sebenza sized flipper
3" blade with a flawless hand satin finish
Egg-shelled ti bolsters
Contoured and polished carbon fiber scales
Seamless transitions between materials
Runs on phosphor bronze washers, not 100% broken in yet but still flips open with a nice snap
Has a tiny bit of play that should go away as the lock breaks in
Centering is perfect

This one has been my 1 custom karambit for a while
I never ended up carrying it so it’s on the chopping block
Not many of these Liong Mah collabs are out there
2-tone satin blade
Layered green and black G-10 scales with some hand texturing
Smooth action, perfect centering, and locks with no play
Works as a front flipper

5. W.R. Bladeworks Drake - near mint - $1500
Perfect example of why Walter Randolph is considered one of the best
Fit and finish is absolutely perfect
Acidwashed S35VN blade
Polished and contoured lightning strike carbon fiber scales, can't feel any wires poking out
Acidwashed liners and clip
Copper backspacer
There are some finish wear on the clip and on the flipper
Has a stiff detent so it flies open with a nice snap
Runs smooth on IKBS, lockup is tight, and centering is dead on
