Hey folks,
As we head into the weekend, I have a few pieces for your consideration. No major reason or pressing financial distress, just trying to be more appreciative of what I have and use, and these are things I don't find myself using. Definitely a me problem though, as these are all great tools.
Simeon Mini Squatch [C]
Sold
First is the Simeon's Customs Mini Squatch. The knife reminds me of a 3" Hinderer in the general aesthetics, but the grind is more interesting. Action is solid, and for those inclined the sound of the video gives you an idea of the snappy deployment. Jamie is a great maker and guy to boot. If you're unfamiliar with his work, this is likely one of the cheapest ways to try it out.
This knife is in S30V with Ti, and has been around the swap. I received it with a fresh spa treatment earlier in the year, and used it for a few months. I touched up the edge on a rod and strop, and you can see in the video that I caught the side of the knife near the base. I've tried to price it as the user it was and can continue to be. It's sharp, well maintained and I hope it can serve somebody as it did me. I'm asking $345 shipped to you, with the card and pouch provided directly from Jamie.
Simeon Yeti Flipper [A-]
Sold
I bought this directly from Jamie earlier this year; was it partly for the name? Yes. Is the knife incredibly built? Thankfully also yes. I received this right when I was able to make a trade for an Arius with a friend at work, and it literally has only been opened a handful of times, never used to cut anything except a piece of paper a few minutes ago to prove its razor sharp edge. The blade is CTS-XHP, with Jamie's signature 'Smoke Finish.' The handle texture on the Ti is really comfortable, and the deployment sound is included in the video as it is unique. The knife is 3.25" long and is slim enough to melt into the pocket. Again, Jamie stands by his work and has been a great guy to interact with, which doesn't necessarily add value to a knife, but I appreciate it all the same. I'm asking $600 for this piece, which is a significant chunk off of what I paid. If you want a brand new custom, it may be tough to find one less used and more discounted than this one.

Skaha II, Magnacut [B ]
I am the first owner and can say it has been carried for less than a week. I prefer a frame lock, but the knife is an exemplar of the North Arms brand. This is the new model, featuring Magnacut steel and smooth blade. I opted for the Black Dunes fat carbon, and tried to show it off in the sunlight. The deployment action is perfect; exactly what they made their name on. I'm asking $265, and am happy to throw in the reel oil that they sent me with it.
Jack Wolf Vampire Jack, black micarta [A-]
Sold
I am a sucker for Halloween; this was part of the original run when they still used micarta. This knife is scary sharp and will probably stay that way with the hollow grind. Flush everything, firm half stop and a pull around 6-7; not a nail breaker by any means and easily pinched open. Smooth and snappy walk and talk between stop positions. Centered nicely. Comes with original tube, leather slip and cloth. It's a great modern slipjoint with an M390 blade. I'm asking $200 to your door.

Denehy Beer Pry [B]

I gave up alcohol this year and have no use for this stupidly heavy, stupidly cool brass piece. It pops tops with ease, feels good in the hand and has a giant Ouroboros pin. The edge doubles as a box opener too. If you like large hunks of metal and/or beer, I think you'll enjoy this. Asking $125.
That's all I've got for now. All prices include priority USPS shipping to all 50 states, and I accept PayPal G S; International folks I can provide a quote to. I'm happy to answer any questions and provide more photos if you'd like. Thanks for taking a look.
