Hello all. Doing some painting and remodeling, moving things around the house and decided it's time to try to move some of the steel I have laying around everywhere. (Doesn't everyone have butcher knives in the bathroom?) When this post falls off the front page (the 21st post on my laptop) I'll then post any remaining items for sale at auction/Buy It Now. I reserve the right to refuse to do business with anyone for any reason. Post 'I'll take it {pic num}{item}' in the thread ... first come first served.

GENERAL
Consider everything you see here as used (a couple of small exceptions to this will be marked 'As New'). These could be catch & releases, old projects that I never finished (or even started), something I was using as decoration or whatever. I make no guarantee of sharpness so you should assume that anything you buy from my post will need to be sharpened. Some do still have the edge that was on them when bought new, on those I'll try to remember to list as 'Orig edge'. These don't eat much so while the prices aren't set in stone, I'm not going to be willing to take too much of a beating on them ... esp the larger items due to shipping costs.

SHIPPING
Anything that will fit in a small or med Flat Rate box from the USPS will go priority mail, anything else will ship via USPS in whatever form is most reasonably priced (unless you just can't wait and are willing to cover the extra charge to get it to you faster).
No out of the country shipping unless you are willing to cover the FULL cost of shipping, assume responsibility for loss, and understand that I won't lie on the Customs form.

CONTACT
If you are seriously interested in one or more of the items for sale shoot me an email at courtjester1960(at)gmail(dot)com if you'd like more pics or have questions. PLEASE NO PIC REQUESTS IN THE THREAD. What you see are the only pics I have taken so far and, having just come home from having abdominal surgery (the 3rd this year), requests for more pics of all the items I have for sale will be ignored.

TRADES
Trades considered via email at the above address only. I'm not really in need of anything but I'll consider most trades, just don't be upset if I reply with 'No thank you.' Im looking for a nice Becker 12 w/kydex sheath. Knives with kydex sheaths get preference. Some non-knife things I may be interested in are Glock G17 or G19 mags, a Glock G20sf (I do have some firearms to trade if you have a G20sf ... email me), suppressor height XS Big Dot Trit sights for a G23. Things I'm NOT interested in are: multiples of your knives for one of mine, anything with serrations, folders with a blade length over 3.25" or folders with carbon steel.

PAYMENT
PayPal to courtjester1960(at)gmail(dot)com

BONUS
Buy 2 knives take 10% off. Buy 3 or more and take 15% off (only applies if you pay my asking price for all items)
