Didn't think I'd be selling this so soon but I don't like how high the Talon sits in my pocket. 2nd owner, no cut or disassembly by either of us. He said he never carried it, I carried it for a day. Includes everything it came with originally, pictured (pouch, tool, card, sticker, and lip balm). Action, lockup, centering all like new. I love how this knife feels but I know I won't carry it. $800 shipped. Not looking to profit, just get back what I paid for it. Ships by next day.

Spyderco Manix 2 S30V - modded by me. First owner, originally was a factory second. Raw aluminum AWT scales, aluminum AWT clip, blade was stonewashed by me. Light spring kit with ceramic ball installed. Cut, carried, and obviously sharpened. Lockup is solid, good centering, no blade play. $180 PPGS shipped

Vosteed Ankylo Elmax - First owner, carried, few cuts, never sharpened. Blade lockup is good, no wobble, and centering is perfect. Some very minor finish wear on the tip. Action is butter smooth. Includes original pouch and Vosteed sticker $100 PPGS shipped

Spyderco Manix 2 S30V - heavily modded by me. First owner, originally was a factory second. Raw aluminum AWT scales, aluminum AWT clip, blade was stonewashed by me. Light spring kit with ceramic ball installed. Cut, carried, and obviously sharpened. Lockup is solid, good centering, no blade play. $180 PPGS shipped

Spyderco Paramilitary 2 Cruwear - Cut some boxes, carried, never sharpened. Factory second. I put on a couple coats of raw linseed oil to darken the scales and because I hate the feeling of brand new micarta. Lighting in the pics makes the scales look a bit reddish but they're really more of a slightly darker 15v brown. Flytanium clip installed, can include a factory clip if desired. Lockup is good, no blade play, centering favors the lefty clip side *just* a touch. $120 PPGS shipped.

Will consider trades for Kunwu Tao II or III

This architect is dead set on these fancy McMaster Carr Allen head bolts and fancy nuts as an accent piece for the main stair railing of this building. Can't paint the black bolts black with the rest of the rail. About 300 of these bolts would need to be otherwise masked by hand.

It rotates both ways out of the box, the battery is way easier to replace, and the button tactile enough and in a way more logical place so I don't have to go looking for it every damn time I want to turn it on or off. Only downsides are micro USB and no neat colors. I regret buying two of the Icons.

I listened to the William H Macy episode of the pod this morning and I'm easily persuaded.
