HAND CRAFTED IN THE USA
Warren had a sheet of CPM-154 lying around so had blade blanks cut and heat treated to create a super-limited run of 17 unique knives. Each one will feature different hardware, handle shapes, blade shapes and grinds, beveling, handle textures, pocket clips, you name it - each knife shares similar overall dimensions, but features multiple differences that make each one unique. There is no official prototype, but I will let you in on a secret. I picked four of my favorites after handling them all - I don't think you'd argue with my selection. These are full-on custom knives but are meant to be sold at an affordable price, using steel so that you're more likely to use them for daily cutting tasks. These are great knives, don't let the price fool you. This particular knife features a primitive horizontal groove texture on the G-10 scale, heat-colored stainless steel hardware, an anodized titanium lock side, a bead-blasted titanium pocket clip, a very unique blade grind with a wicked mono-serration, jimping cut at the top back edge of the slightly downward angled blade. The action rides on Teflon washers and is smooth and easy to work with the thumbstud. Lockup is very early and tight with absolutely no blade play. A tough knife that you can depend on with your life. This one, like the others will be priced to move. I will release a new one every few days. For the construction and effort involve in their creation, these knives are a bargain. Priced to be a user, but still worthy of any collection! Don't miss out! |
