FS: ...yet more customs. (3.5" TH FM Hotwire, Ano'd Ti Aleph) $$$ drops...

...more must go...

If an item isn't listed it likely isn't included.
If a detail isn't listed, then it's likely not known by me.
If I didn't list its specific physical condition, it's not worth mentioning (i.e. still in as-received condition from the manufacturer/dealer).
No batteries will be included (if I find some around the house, I may include some at shipping time)
None of these lights would I consider MINT (unless noted); even purchased new some/many have little specs of ano missing here or there (and I'm not photographing every spot, so please don't ask)
For lights that include the original packaging, the boxes have been in storage, they are not in as-new condition.



Some usage terminology:


· never carried, never put into "use": means it likely sat on a shelf or in a box, but was still used lightly indoors to either enjoy in ownership or compare with other lights
· new-out-of-box: means it was purchased fairly recently and just taken out of packaging; still in as-received condition
· carried as a backup: means it sat in my tool bag's interior pocket for most of it's life
· carried once: means I pocketed it to work once; the rest of it's life it likely sat on a shelf or in a box, but was still used lightly indoors to either enjoy in ownership or compare with other lights
· carried as a primary: means a user (but I take decent care of my stuff)
· unknown history: uh, kinda self-explanatory
· shelf queen; sat on a shelf during the duration of my ownership

First posted unconditional "I'll take it." (followed by payment) trumps all other requests/PMs/inquiries/etc.

All prices are shipping included. I ship USPS CONUS; First Class for small items, Priority for more or more expensive items (or at request at an additional cost). I will ship internationally, though I prefer not to (expect a $20+ increase for international shipping assuming purchased items will fit in my existing boxes). If you are international, please state so in your communication with me when requesting a price quote. Sounds like a stupid request, but sometimes I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, so I need a blatant reminder.

PayPal address: fiorentd [at] verizon.net (via PayPal goods; no gifts please) Please include your CPF user name as well as you purchased items in the PayPal notes.

Thus any machining marks or imperfections will be shown through the coating, of which there are some minor ones which I was unsuccessful at photographing. This is the only Al light I have seen TiN coated.), also for some reason (I'm guessing just machining tolerances) with the installed LE/LED combination the battery tube is @0.2mm too short from making solid contact so I used a piece of solid copper wire on the backside of the LE for an assist (this was never meant as a "user" light for me), WILL NOT SEPARATE PARTS…$165 $155 $140 $130 $120 [SOLD]

I would love to take the TB host, but have no need or desire for the balisong. If you decide to just sell the host, please consider sending me a PM.

I'm hoping someone will take this rainbow Aleph combo *soon*. I have over extended more than once already (over-over-extended). This is so tempting for me. I'm having a hard time controlling my typing fingers.....

Okay - I'm hoping someone buys the TB rainbow aleph soon also. This is the other one the little devil on my shouder is saying to just do it (angel on the other winning so far :) If the angel wins I'll have to sell either the spy or the ls27 - both I would rather keep and I really don't want to have to build another LE to make this work. Please put me out of my misery and buy this :D
