If you have any questions about what's listed, just let me know and I'll do my best to help you out. For more details, specs, or pictures, ask and ye shall receive. You can reach me through private message or through my email: kenleung1995 at hotmail dot com. I also check my threads fairly often so I'll see your posts. I can work with you on the price for some of these and I'm open to trades. 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. Thanks for your time.

For trades, I'm looking for a: Spyderco Kapara, Spyderco Smock, Striders, Microtechs, Protechs, Olamics, Chris Reeves, Hinderers, Ferrum Forges, Ziebas, Curtiss Knives, Sharp By Designs, BM 51, Spartan Pallas tanto, ZT 0454, Tashi Rowdy HiTech, Medford USMC Fighter Flipper, Medford Smooth Criminal, Isham designs, G&G Hawk Orbit, some balisongs, and a Graham Razel but I'll be happy to hear other offers. Worst I can do is pass and cash can be added either way.

1. Olamic Wayfarer 247S - carried - $475 --> Traded
High polished satin M390 sheepscliffe blade
Frame is orange-peeled ti
All the hardware has been blue anodized
Upgraded with a blue satin floating backspacer
Has a large full-thickness contoured timascus clip that doesn't use the usual ceramic ball
There are light scratches running horizontal on the blade that I couldn't get on camera due to the reflections from the finish, they are minor but you will see them in person
Frame has some very minor marks as well
Edge is dull and needs to be resharpened
Fast snappy action, locks up rock solid, and centering is dead on

Very recent build from Cutiss
3.75" blade in CTS-XHP with a nice reflective stonewashed finish
Matte stonewashed ti frame
Subtly bronzed hardware
Blade is perfectly centered but the grind is very slightly off making it look like it favors the front by a hair
Action on it is perfectly glass smooth, it will drop shut all the way with just gravity alone
Has a nice snappy detent and it locks with zero play
