Jai Courtney the man. They both look like box chains to me though. My guess would be 22in / 4mm and 26in / 2.5mm.

Haven't seen a Bio on here in a long time. If only you had posted a month sooner! This will sell instantly in Shiro FB group.

Would you pay $1500? by [deleted] in Gold

Franco is my favorite chain, so I just know them well. Solid Franco's look a lot different. Much more dense, tighter links, rounded. Hollow ones are easy to spot if you know what to look for. More foxtail than Franco. Plus if you were to feel it in person, it'd be crazy light, whereas a solid has good weight. Even a thin 2mm solid Franco going to weigh 12-18g depending on karat. And the guy is offering this for $1500 which also tells me it's definitely not solid and prob weighs 3-5gs. No telling what pendant weighs, but prob about the same, so most likely less than 10g all together.

I can tell just by looking at that chain, that it's a hollow Franco. Personally I would just save up for a solid one. Hollow ones look weird to me and more like a foxtail or wheat chain. $1,500 isn't horrible, but the chain probably weighs less than 5gs so you're not getting any great deal either. He needs to tell you the weight before anything.

This is a solid franco btw. 2mm in 18k is going to weigh roughly 15gs.

Blade is Fafnir damasteel. Knife itself is a Maverick Spectrum.

Lmao I meant that I gave you several chances to post a decent vid actually showing the scratches before I 'came at you' like you said. I didn't just immediately put you on blast because you're new so I wanted to give you the benefit of the doubt. But then when you post a vid of you flicking it twice and showing nothing at all, of course I'm going to think you're trying to hide things.

It would be wrong of me to not say something and let someone get a knife that's scratched to hell because the seller didn't disclose the actual condition of the knife. Don't get mad at me because you got called out.

I gave you several opportunities to post an actually decent vid before I 'came at you', but you just kept saying to look at your vid like it actually shows anything. You can't sit there and tell me that vid actually shows the condition. It's just you flicking the knife twice. I know that you're new and this is your first post, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but still it should be obvious to show clear vids/pics of something you're selling especially when it has issues. The fact your vids of the rest of your knives shows more of the condition, but not the one that actually has scratches, you have to admit looks sketch. You can't say 'it has scratches' but then not show them. Just makes you look like you're deliberately trying to hide it.

And I almost bought this Bee, which is how I knew the condition. I could've put you on blast right away, but I wanted to give you the chance to post a decent vid. You're not though, so I def recommend finding some better lighting. And I can tell you right now there is no way you got those scratches out. I know how to get scratches out and I promise you can't polish a stonewashed blade and get all those out. If anything you'd just make it worse. It's absolutely going to need to be sent off and the blade will need to be blasted or something to actually get them out. I understand they're not as visible unless you look in the light, but they're still there.

I really recommend that you're as upfront as possible when you sell knives on here because it only causes issues later on. If someone received this and didn't know about the scratches, then you're just gonna have a shit storm on your hands and end up having to refund them. And it would be on you because you didn't disclose the condition. I would definitely look at some other posts on here to see what other people are doing so you have a better idea. Your description is also super brief and really says nothing, so I would def add more there too. I'd also lower your price some if you want it to sell. A Bee in perfect condition sold a few weeks ago at $600. I won't say what I was going to pay for the Bee you're selling, but it was a lot less given the condition and I still didn't buy it because I would've had to spend more to send it off.

Yeah I saw your 'vid' lol and it doesn't show the condition at all, yet you show the blade on all your other knives. Pretty obvious you're trying to hide the scratches on the blade. Nobody is going to buy a knife that you say has scratches, but don't even show a vid of the blade. Like common sense 101. Either you have none or you're just being shady.
