FS: Benchmade 42s

**Bedore** · 12-19-2011, 05:05 PM

For sale is a Benchmade 42s spring latch. Overall it's in excellent shape. The serrated blade appears to have the factory edge and is in great shape. Blade is 440c. Can see some very faint marks under the right light but nothing major. No rust, pitting, etc. The handles are in excellent shape as well. Spring latch is great and functions as it should. It has been flipped, but not much. Very little play in the handles at all. I have a Benchmade sheath for it, but no box unfortunately.

Asking $300.00 shipped OBO. Will accept Paypal (+3.5% for fees). Will trade for out the front autos, side opening autos, or benchmade folders/fixed blades. Please IM me if interested. This may be cross posted on other sites as well. If you have questions, want additional photos, etc please IM me. Do not say "I'll take it" unless you plan to follow through. Thanks for looking.

Hi,

Can you post macro pictures up of the latch, the tang cups, and the blade?

Thanks.

Please add pictures of the tip, each individual hole on the handles and let us know which camera you're using so we can analyze the pictures for quality purposes.

Have I really been away from here that fucking long???

ya'll are some paranoid people wanting pictures of each individual hole, i can tell it's a real 42.

the fakes have different serrations and the grind on the blade isn't the same, also the text on the blade is a different color. it's real, just buy it.

A big giveaway with fake 42s are the tang cups... Most buyers like to be safe when buying and ask the seller to just take 30 seconds and take a picture to post up before they go ahead and drop 300 bucks.
