There’s little more relaxing than doing some sharpening on the patio, murking wasps that fly by with the electric fly swatter

Even some of my favorite mountain streams are feeling a little low, but I’m not always upset with the blues. Really digging this overland x

THIS IS A LEFTY ZAAN. First owner. Has been lightly used for cutting (mostly food prep), has been carried and disassembled, never sharpened. Has some snails on the handles that are hard to see in use, I’ve taken the pics in a way that shows them off as much as is possible, if you’re ok with those you’re going to be happier when it’s in your hand. This is the smoothest zaan I’ve owned or had in my hand, and if it was the tanto I’d be keeping it. Has everything it came with except the grease, if I can find it I’ll toss it in, but I assume the parts bin swallowed it up. Also comes with an MXG lanyard delete pin (installed) and the original pin with lanyard in the box.

Asking $490 shipped via PayPal FF. Timestamp knife not for sale.

Only looking to trade for now, may sell later. First owner took it out of the package, no cut no carry no sharpening no nothing. Looking for a Quiet Carry reform. Please have at least a few good swaps, we each pay our shipping. TV 160 per swap rules.

Original owner on both, prices are shipped, only trade would be for a new transmission for a 2021 outback, or another car that doesn’t shit itself to death at 96k. Payment via PayPal FF.

First up the backpacker. This the S35VN 5Col edition that has the sharpened spine for using your fire steel. I think I cut up half an onion with this and struck the spine a few times. It’s a great knife but I’m still out on edc fixies. Comes with the original clip and a pocket clip. $100

Next up is the Rivery zero “original cadlab blue”. Things cool as hell, but I only use it as a fidget toy. Pics show minor wear to the exterior, more internal from the previously described fidgeting. Fully functional and feels great. $60

2021 outback premium, just had the dealership do a CVT drain and fill earlier in the month. When the temps are up (around 100 degrees here now) it’s started basically not responding to throttle input when I hit the gas after coming to a complete stop. The video is with the pedal to the floor, it basically stops doing anything at 2k RPM or so, and then the revs shoot up and it’ll kinda start driving again.

Friend got one in the new drop and didn’t like it, but I think it’ll stick around here with me. Swapped on my old digicam scales and very much enjoy the look

Got my tanto from the recent drop and noticed that the pivot screws, when fully bottomed out, don’t lock/seriously constrict the blade like they would on my other PM2, leaving it with the smallest bit of side/side blade play. Anyone else run into this? It’s not the end of the world and Im sure i could fix it after swapping some parts around, but dont think ive ever seen this particular issue.

Wanted a way to shoot cheaply at night and decided to treat myself to a 10/22 carbon. I was worried about the lack of easy solutions for a rail to mount the SMS trinity on, but putting it just forward of the dot on a slightly extended rail is working fine with just some mild shadow from the can when the illuminator is pulled all the way wide. Super impressed with the rifle itself and it is way nicer than I remember the old base model wooden stocked version was.

Got one of the backpackers recently, and while there are a couple things I’m not a huge fan of (no jimping is a wild choice), this thing feels simultaneously feather light and sturdy as hell. Can’t wait to bring it on some trips.

Participated unsuccessfully in the PM2 tanto debacle, but did get a CRK backpacker so I can’t be too mad.

Catch and release from the swap, it’s a very cool knife but I don’t think I’m really going to use it, just recouping most of what I have into it. Previous owner didn’t say if they cut with it or sharpened it, but doesn’t look like it and it’s in great shape. There’s some wear finish on the metal hardware for the sheath clip so I’d guess it’s been carried, but I don’t see any other carry wear. Asking $145 via G&S, timestamp knife not for sale.

If it’s in a pocket it’s worn weight

Used, cut, carried, sharpened, all of it. Comes with the box, papers, old sticker paper sans sticker, and for whatever reason 2 out of the 3 Allen wrenches. Pics taken in a way to accentuate the snail trails on the scales, lockup and centering is great, the action is smooth with a lightly sticky lock. Asking $250 shipped via PayPal FF.

Got a blade blasted one this time, and has been the case with the other CRKs I’ve had, the action feels substantially smoother than the sandblasted version. Doesn’t make sense, but I’ll take it. The drop point is excellent, but I’ll be putting in an order for a tanto reblade at some point.

I am at least the second owner. It’s been used to cut and carry, and Im assuming it’s been sharpened at some point. Comes with upgraded larger PB washers, both lefty and righty clips, and a right handed deep carry clip. Asking $75 shipped via PayPal FF

First up is a white river ursus cub in magnacut, has been cut carried and sharpened. I am the original owner. Has the box, belt clip, ferro rod, and an added ulticlip (you can reverse it to use as a righty if you’re not Flanders-pilled). The ferro rod is the most used part of this as I had it screwed to the freereign sheath for awhile, but still functional. $150

Next, a benchmade auto presidio II in M4 steel. I’m at least the second owner, it was carried a lot but cut little. Previous owner sharpened it. Fires great, a truly beefy boy. $160

Finally a ZT 0350TS. Catch and release second owner, I carried it for an afternoon, chopped up some veggies with it (a true delight), and realized I’m just not really going to carry this thing as I’ve gotten used to lefty-specific frame/liner locks. Has not been sharpened. $99

Sometimes you just gotta tactically open your Amazon box of replacement toothbrush heads and sensitive skin body wash, and only the most Tacticool knives will do. CRK Pacific, Benchmade Auto Presidio 2, ZT 0350TS.
