Hey guys,

CKRT M16 !!!! Need I say more. This is almost my entire collection of the venerable and proven M16 design by CRKT. Slim, elegant, capable, easy to use, easy to carry, and at these prices easy on the hip pocket :p

Model numbers, prices and short descriptions posted shortly. If taking the whole collection I shall discount heavily.

Large M16's from left to right:
$50 M16-13 FDZ - FIRE DEPARTMENT SPEAR BLADE
SOLD elsewhere $65 M16-13 M - M16 MILITARY
$60 M16-13 LE - M16 LAW ENFORCEMENT
$45 M16-13 ZM - M16 ZYTEL DESERT CAMO COMBO EDGE
$90 M16-13 T - M16 TITANIUM LINERLOCK SPEAR POINT
SOLD CMOT - $35 M16-13 Z - M16 ZYTEL SPEAR POINT COMBO EDGE
SOLD Warrigal - $35 M16-03 Z - M16 ZYTEL SPEAR POINT PLAIN EDGE

Small M16's EDC (small ones):
SOLD Ratel10mm -$55 M16-01 K - M16 COMPACT BLACK SPEAR POINT BLADE
PENDING AussieBlade - $55 M16-01 KE - M16 COMPACT GREEN SPEAR POINT BLADE

All Prices are inclusive of postage, packaging and GST ....LOL! Check out comparative pricing elsewhere, you won't get any cheaper NIB M16's. These are great even for just flipping around when watching TV, or making cuts on paracord or fingers even!

ALL M16's have their patented AutoLAWKS feature with the exception of one of the black Zytel full sized blades. In real life the Black Zytel ones IMHO represent great value for money, the titanium one oozes quality feel, the black bladed special ones are porn... very very neat. All have the Carson 'flipper' for fast one handed opening. All linerlocks.

Matthew,

I know, I thought of pricing them higher, but really many knife nuts here will appreciate how good these M16s are and they are already a classic blade to boot !. Great spear point for utility, sharpening is easy due to shape of blade, and the quality is excellent for its price point......need I say more than C'MON guys. Don't let me regain my sanity or the prices will be going UP or knives pulled out :P

Seroiusly, I'd rather see these stay in Australia to those that can appreciate them. A few of these are quite hard to come by too.

Thanks Sirgalant, but not for Swisstool.... I'd consider a Leatherman but not the Swisstool, sorry.

I'd consider some nice Spyderco offerings though, bt would prefer a nice Paypal deposit for keeping things tidy :)

Cheers

AussieBlade and Warrigal,

Both are available. Email me your details an I shall reply with my payment details. I'll mark both as yours. Great choices BTW. The black Zytel ones are excellent buying, and the black bladed EDC ones are porn..... you'll both love them (I carry my EDC sized titanium one all the time)

Thanks guys.....get the emails to me and I'll fix you up with details. Prefer Paypal, but DD to my NAB bank account is OK.

Hi all :)
I'm new in these parts but I thought I'd jump straight in and bag the combo Zytel if I may.

C'mon guys, these are a steal at this price. Make me an offer if you want more than one blade....you'll be surprised at my response :) They are already a great price for great EDC knives..... use these and keep your others minty fresh.

Look up eBay prices and you'll see that these are a freaking great deal for all NIBs on a classic proven design. Carries very discretely in normal everyday wear and even for office wear.

Cheers

I'll take the remaining small EDC if you don't mind it residing in the U.K. for a year or so?

Ratel10mm,

I'll post to Australia which is inclusive in the asking price. If posting to UK I don't mind but we'll have to work out postage

No worries mate. I assumed I'd be paying the postage.

I recently had the pleasure of buying a knife from Clive so I have a rough idea of what the extra is.

Shall we go to PM?

Thanks Daniel, got my new knives - love 'em! :) I hadn't got an M16 before 'cause they just didn't look appealing to me - now I can't put it down! ;)

OK guys,

Time to move these along now. Price drops on remainder. These represent great value and are half the price you'll find elsewhere. Some you can't even find any more. Grab these now else they go to eBay. I'd rather these go to enthusiast who know how to use them or know what they are worth :)

Cheers
Daniel
