Actually quite a few goodies on there including Byrd Cara Cara Rescues in PE for £9.98 inc delivery.  Seems they do used things as well.
I'm back!!

I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

It is.

Proceed with caution.

He was probably the UK's biggest shifter of used SAKs on ebay before the ban. 

Back then he requested I not bid/purchase anything from him.  I have endeavoured to respect this (though it was tricky with the multitude of other IDs he used), including these days not purchasing anything from that site.
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

I'm sure you'll be fine.  He had plenty of satisfied customers.

It will probably turn up. Or he'll just refund your money like he did with a Byrd Pelican I won in an auction recently.  ::)

Make sure you read the fine print too - not all of his stuff is new. I've had some good deals from him over the years, and some shockers.

Didn't realise it was his site.  Probably will avoid any used ones then.

I've had a couple of things from him on ebay and not had an issue with anything.  The only hiccup was when he couldn't find a item he had been selling "buy it now", he replaced it with a similar item of my choosing (slightly more pricey IIRC) and threw in a keyring compass so I've nothing to complain about.  However I have heard of others that haven't been totally happy either. :-\

Well I'm pleased to say the rally turned up tho it was not in a box just came in a jiffy bag and I had to give it a little clean,that said once cleaned it looks brand new  :tu: if it wasn't new I don't care as I'm good at cleaning and polishing steel and plastics anyway  :D




I do like the little screwdriver tho,it was one thing I missed when I sold a minichamp it would make a good paring to any larger SAK just because of that fact  :tu:

Great for those tiny screws  ;) anyone who has the small screwdriver will be able to judge what size screws I'm talking about  :salute:

Glad it got there John.  I like to carry a Rally when my main SAK of the day has scissors on it, mostly as I don't seem to like any duplication in tools.

Yeah it's minimalist but it has enough going for it in such a small package  ;)

The small phillips is certainly my favourite tool on the 58mm line.  I really wish they do a comparable driver for the 91mm.  I suppose there's always the Cyber Tools but as soon as you add that layer you end up with a big SAK.

I bought a Swiss Memory Classic thing from him once, and when it arrived - the USB memory bit was missing  ???

So I went back and read the ebay listing I bought it from, and sure enough, there it was:

Memory not included.

I read things much more carefully after that, especially when I saw the treatment that people who complained got in his feedback.....

Are we saying this website is good, bad or proceed with caution?

They have a Squirt P4, used for £18-95 that I might be interested in.

http://www.swissknifeandtool.co.uk/leatherman-tools-leatherman-squirt-s4-multi-tool-with-scissors-in-storm-grey-used-near-new-clon

Also how come Ebay UK banned the sale of SAK's, etc? Is is to do with our bizarre knife laws? If so how come you can buy from Amazon or the website above or many others?

Just read the small print and know what you're buying other than that I'd say it's good thus far  :tu:


yeah you got it ebay banned all knives for sale including SAK's they went to far IMO as it's not against the law to buy and sell knives in the UK just yet  ::)

What happened to cause him to act in this extreme manner?
