[Sharp Guy]

Zdp caly 3.5 for $100.....

That's probably my best deal yet, Sage 2 LNIB for $80 was a great deal too. There's been some others as well.

[murphjd25]

Ive got a few great deals. I got my Techno for $140 brand new, my Sage 2 for $120 brand new, and a Caly 3 CF ZDP LNIB on the exchange for $100. Always fun finding deals!

$60 Puukko and $80 ZDP Caly 3.5 are tops for me, thanks to one of my favorite threads.

Was pleased to get a NIB GB1 for $100 off the bay.

A kind gentleman just let me have a new Mule pkg with Halpern micarta and a JouFou leather sheath for $100. Very pleased with that one. :spyder:

I lucked out and bought a Spyderco Tasman for like $50 from BHQ, they had it miss priced. Their loss my gain

[TkoK83Spy]

Brand new Gayle Bradley 2 during a 20% off coupon and offer made...$117

[dodgie02]

Mint Condition Cruwear Military with the grey g10 2013 edition for 155 euro recently. Even had the original grind, box, gritty from years of being a safe queen.

For Reference. a normal military goes for 230 euro retail here.

Edit: and one time I ordered a sage 5, but they charged me the price of a bugout which I ordered initially but had it cancelled and switched out for a sage 5. 130 eur while they normally run for 193 here.

Stretch 2 G10 ZDP-189 brand new for $114.

This was an odd one, as I'd been looking around after they were discontinued. Found them on Amazon for a decent deal, then just kept looking back, knowing that Amazon's prices fluctuate. The price seemed to be solid at $198, then one time, I saw them for $114. Jumped at it, hoping that the vendor would not cancel the order, and if they did ship, it would be authentic. No cancellation, and it's a Spydie! VERY impressive knife... thanks Sal for making this one a reality.

Sorry the blade is not as clean as it should be... just sliced up an apple (and an amazing slicer it is).

[MacLaren]

May not seem that great, but imo, the K2 for $150 was a tremendous bargain. I mean where else are you even going to 10V steel, let alone a blade like that.....

[Extra330SC]

2018 holiday sale Blade HQ Spyderco Advocate and
Stepped Titanium Chaparral combo $ 249.00.

Brand new mantra for $70

[Kyle8734]

Sage 1 paid $20 for it from a guy at my old job. Said he just never liked it. Had a little surface rust on the liners which cleaned up easily but other than that knife was perfect.

Glad I found a place to let this out. :o

My most recent purchase was a lot of "3 small folders" $130. It included a Kershaw Chive, a lnib looking Leaf Storm, and a white micarta Jess Horn that shows some dirt and scratches on the pins from pocket carry, but otherwise only lightly and unsharpened. No boxes or anything, but I'm still in a mild shock over this deal. Bought them entirely for the Jess Horn to be honest.

Picked up a used PE Walker lightweight this weekend for under $50.

[toxophilus]

Hard to beat the 2nds sale...besides seconds they had a couple of tables of regular NIB merchandise on sale also...got a
GITD EDC M2 XL...can't remember if it was 100 or 110, either way I should have gotten a few instead of just one, kicking
Myself now, LOVE that knife ,hope we get a seconds sale this year...there'll always be new deals..

As has been stated before The Seconds Sale; if you can make it out here it is worth it!!!

Couple of examples below from this past November :spyder:

[spyderg]

Well I guess the best deal I made would be either the two Swicks I got or the micro dyad and dyad jr. I picked up together. Can’t remember how much I spent either time but I remember feeling I got a decent deal after a little hagglin.
The best deal I got purchasing new would prob be my Domino for $130 Canadian. Followed by my Cruwear Manix that I got for no markup over a standard.

C34 Jess Horn II I snagged on eBay for $55. There were a couple rust spots on the blade and no one was biting, so I took a chance and got it, then put the blade in Evapo-Rust for a couple hours. Wiped the spots off and it’s like they were never there. Rest of the knife was in great shape with no rust; I do notice the blade edge tends to want to strike the back spacer when closed.

It’s my “gentleman’s folder”, and on the rare occasion I use it I’m very careful to gently fold it closed.
