Good morning. 🦆🦆🦆

15 December 2024

I lost my pocketknife a couple of days ago and I can't figure out what happened to the knife. I don't really go out often. It is a Benchmade knife, one of those with a clip on the side. I had the knife for years, so it was building sentimental value, also Benchmade's aren't cheap. Of course, I didn't notice the loss until I reached for it to do something and nothing was there, just my pocket. Hmmm ... I started to say air just to make it rhyme. Anyway, I already ordered a replacement. Benchmade's have a lifetime guarantee, but that doesn't help if you lose the darn thing. Now I might come across it - c'est la vie.

Avis aux amateurs de #couteaux.

Je vends mon #benchmade #bugout.
Modèle unique puisque la lame a été modifiée par le coutelier Rémy B. Elle a subit un traitement acid/stonewash.
Plaquettes remplacées par des modèles en micarta.
Couteau très réputé et en très bon état. Je ne m'habitue à sa prise en main.

Acheté 185€ il y a un an, vendu 155€ avec boite et plaquettes d'origines.
Les plaquettes micarta valent 85$ et le traitement de la lame 50€. Le couteau neuf en vaut 140€.

Repouets appréciés
