Sure thing man…Imo- it’s the best place to sell a knife and quickly!!! I sold 7 in less than an hour once… you have to keep your prices in check or you’ll be called out for it or worse yet you’ll get no responses…$25 - $2500 knives…you name it and you’ll eventually find it…

It may be the Spyderco swap page on Reddit that vivi set up…

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
One of the few non spydies in my collection. But its one of my favorites.
Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Not sure it's a keeper, since it seems to have as much bad as good, but I've wanted one for a few years now and now I have one so it's in my pocket.

It’s a keeper in my book cause it’s a frame lock Benchmade…beast of a knife
Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
You're not wrong, and I really want to like it but it has a couple serious issues, the biggest being caused by having such a small gap between the lockbar and the rest of the frame:SaltyCaribbeanDfly wrote: ↑Sat Mar 04, 2023 8:48 amIt’s a keeper in my book cause it’s a frame lock Benchmade…beast of a knife
And since there's not a Hinderer style stabilizer, it causes the rest of the frame to act as the stabilizer, which isn't the end of the world but it does cause the two to rub against each other when unlocking:
Edit: I was able to tune the rubbing completely out, and the lockbar flex about 90% out. It'll still flex a miniscule amount, but it no longer makes contact with the rest of the frame.

Wow-never noticed that…handled one at a local knife shop recently…the Proxy usually gets a bad rap because of the supposedly wasted space between the sharpening choil and plunge line where the flat section is…personally I like that…plus it makes a loud click when deploying
Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
3 years ago on page 116 I owned some sweet knives
Now I’d rather have a FRN spyderco

Funny to look back at how our preferences change. I like looking through all my photos sometimes and watching the evolution.

Re: What "Other" is in your pocket???
Yessir. I was always in search of the “perfect pocket knife” and didn’t realize my preference for a regular, good ol FRN Spyderco back lock. But I can say I put my money where my mouth is!

Great carry. I love the pre-Idaho Sebenzas.Darklight111 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 04, 2023 4:32 pmFor my first post in this thread, here's a picture of my first "step up" folder, a Large Regular Sebenza bought in 2006.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
