Selling some stuff
Here is some stuff I am selling.
SOLD The Taiwan OTF is in great shape: $40
SOLD The black 7" is okay, the swivel doesn't move back into place very well: $25
Sold The green 8" is great: $35
SOLD The black 11" Batwing Rizzuto is in great shape. It locks up with minimal play and sits deep: $120
The pearl 9" Rizzuto peaks and has some play. It also has a chip by the bottom pin on the back. But it has the really rare penguin stamp: $75
SOLD The 9" Begon (I think it is a Begon) works great and sits deep. The swedge part is kind of sharp, I think someone once sharpened it. It has a chip to the left of the button and a stable crack on the bottom of the back scale. $165
The Wood & Brass AKC swinger is one of the first customs I ever did (it was a few years ago before I really knew what I was doing). It works fine and sits deep. But there is a gap above the front scale, the spring pushes the lock when closed, the guards are too high (but they are tight so they stay in place). $45
If you are interested in any of these, send me a PM.

Boy, I just love when I buy items with issues NOT disclosed!
Well, made my first purchase here on TalkBlade and it's been a huge headache!!
Taiwan OTF, not "Great" shape when the Lettering on front is worn down flat but it does work great.
The Black swivel has that issue due to the inner metal linings being Bent on both sides causing it to hang up on the handle edge, knife is noticeably bent. Blade can fire with lock slide engaged and when I asked about condition of this handle he made no mention of the gouges or the fact the finish was worn to a more flat black finish.
The Green is far from "Great" with a Crack on the handle, oh, and when the lock mech is frozen and just doesn't work I'd say it's not "Great".
I even specifically asked more questions before purchasing and he made NO mention of any issues. If you're going to purchase any knives from this thread I really don't know what good asking questions will do. I'd ask for better, clearer pictures. Then again, you can't see lock mechs not working in pics, that info you expect to get from an honest person. And for someone who, as mentioned above, did a custom then to not mention the reason why the swivel is hanging up is just unbelievable as they would obviously see what was causing said issue.

Re: Selling some stuff
Sounds to me like jimbrown257 has offered to refund your money, Jay. It's too bad you guys both disagree about condition, but a refund is on the table and sounds like what might be the best for both of you. Before this turns into a pissing match can you both agree to work this out?..Thank you.
Re: Selling some stuff
Yeah, a lot of emails. Yes, you stated send them back for a refund and that's all you said. No apologies for your BS blades, misrepresentation of product & withholding condition issues. No pissing match neccessary. You state these are "Serious Charges"?!? Seriously man!! Should I just post the pictures I sent you so all can see you're full of it!! A bent frigging blade is hard to miss, yet you somehow did???

Re: Selling some stuff
What part of "just send them back and I will refund your money" don't you understand??? why keep crying about it?
Re: Selling some stuff
Wow people, no Unbiased opinions here towards the new guy!
"Big_Slim", yup, no problem with a refund providing he sends it beforehand. I'll ship out items afterwards. That's how I handle a dishonest seller. Why keep Crying about it?!? Funny, I just want him to cop to the fact publicly now that he knew about these issues and didn't bother to mention them even when asked about condition again. It's called owning up to your FU!! What, no accountability here?!? Just sweep his FU under the rug and move forward?!? Not w/o him admitting he knew first.
