Catch and release. Received with a light patina and kept lightly oiled while in my possession. No cut or carry from me. Great condition, no cut or carry from me or other owner.

Turns out “just one more” was not a sustainable acquisition strategy, so a few excellent pieces from the collection are heading out into the world to help restore domestic harmony and credibility.

Quick note on sharpening: any edges listed as sharpened were done carefully on a fixed-angle guided system while maintaining factory geometry and focusing on refining the original grind rather than changing edge angles. Bevels are even and symmetrical on both sides. Happy to provide additional edge photos if helpful.

Most knives here are LNIB and either original owner or clean catch-and-releases.

PPGS accepted

All knives include original boxes and papers except the Presidio Auto, which will ship in a Benchmade box and pouch (not original)

Trades: only interested in Bugouts and/or aftermarket Bugout scales and hardware — gathering parts for project builds
