Microtech knives are top of the line, both in parts and quality of manufacturing!

 

i can't get my camera to focus in on the blade enough so it shows the detail of the inscriptions. it is #0689 made in Jan. 2002.

the blade has never been sharpened, i have never used it for cutting/hacking or anything like that. it has no knicks or blemishes. i'm not an "avid flipper", so it has barely been flipped.

the only real wear is on the "T"-clasp, this is normal!

i have owned it since July 2002. i bought it from a roadside knife shop in Missouri (those shops are everywhere their lol!) on my way to Current river. i bought it because i thought it was "badass" which it is! when i got it, i had no idea that they were sought after, or as popular as they are!

basically it has been sitting in a drawer inside the sheath for the last 4yrs. occasionally being taken out to look at or show a friend etc.etc.

 

included is a nylon sheath, in good shape that can be carried vertically or horizontally on your belt.

plus a small Benchmade 8pc torx bit tool "kit" to disassemble and assemble this knife.

 

 

here are the pics...

one more with specs (ignore the price)

they started making these in late 2001, the serial numbers started at #0101 with a birth date of 11-2001 (all marked on every blade)

this knife isnt being made anymore. it is a collectable, price/value/desire for it is only going up! they routinely sell for upwards of $275, IF you can find one!

 

$250 shipped (with tracking#) is what i want out of it!

 

or trade for some Banshee parts...
