Hello everyone,
Finally stopped dragging my feet and got this listing together to gather funds for something I’ve wanted for a while now. Photos will be included on the following comments below.
Kwaiback UHEP MK4 | CPM 20CV | Bronze Ti | Acid SW
Condition: Very Good - carried and used sparingly for breaking down boxes.
Edge: Factory, but has been stropped
History: Original Owner — This was a grail of mine for the longest time. While I still think highly of this knife, it just doesn’t get carried. I’ve disassembled it multiple times for maintenance with a Torx driver (factory Hex wrenches are included), but have only used it sparingly throughout the many years I’ve had it. I used a polish pad to remove the acid wash from the blade for no apparent reason other than to give it a new look. Action is snappy, depending on the HRD setting you have it at. Centering slightly favors the presentation scale, but does not rub. Solid lock up without any blade play. I would say the big Ah-Ha is that the COA does NOT match the actual knife. I bought this directly from BladeHQ and never noticed this discrepancy until a year ago. The sticker on the box shows the correct specs. I never bothered to try to obtain the correct COA because I never thought this knife would leave my collection, but we all know how that pans out lol. This is definitely meant to be a user, especially due to the mod on the finish.
Asking Price: WITHDRAWN for Re-List
Zieba/Wilson Combat Southern Star | M390
Condition: Very Good — Handle/Clip has fair share of snail trails, but the blade looks to be in excellent condition.
Edge: Looks to be factory, but could use a sharpening
History: Received this in a trade from another member here on the forums. While it’s a well-built folder, I realized I’m just not skilled enough to maintain/sharpen a recurved blade lol. It’s also a bit too large for my preference. It was a bit gritty when I received it so I’ve disassembled and re-lubed it. The action and ergos are the highlights of this knife — fast and snappy flips, molds into the hand for a comfy, secure grip. Centering slightly favors the presentation side, but does not rub. Lockup is solid and there is no blade play. As mentioned, I believe it could use a sharpening — tested it on paper and it did not cut as well as I would’ve expected. Although, how many of us buy knives to cut paper, amirite?! It arrived to me in a black taco pouch, which is how it’ll be parted with. Not too sure on the specs, but it’s roughly 3.75”+ blade, 5”+ handle, close to 7oz weight — these may have sold out recently, but that’s based on my Google search; for which wasn’t that thorough.
Asking Price: $OLD to Fordsnstuff
ZT 0801BRZ | M390
Condition: Excellent — A couple snail trails towards bottom of handle on presentation side and pocket clip. Also, there are two very faint scratches on the blade that I wasn’t able to capture in pics and can only be seen under the right angles, but I did circle the approximate area on the last pic.
Edge: Appears to be factory and unsharpened
History: I’m at least the third owner who purchased this from another member off this forum. I have not used nor sharpened it, but have carried it a couple times. Centering is spot on without any blade play. Action is spectacular accompanied by a light-shake, drop-shut close. There’s nothing but greatness from this folder, but I’m just not carrying it.
