Seen here is another first timer that I've managed to get a few days with. This one was sent to me for a new clip. As you can see the old one met with a bit of an ill fate. Not sure of the story on that exactly but anyway as requested I anodized it blue. Its not quite as perfect a match as I had envisioned but will certainly work. It may subdue down some with age and blend even better in time. Some have done that so time will tell.

This is a nice knife. Certainly worth a look and worthy of high praises. Not really little and not really big its kind of a middle of the road medium sized heavy duty folder from what I can tell. 5 ounces even up with a a 3.125" blade and a a 4 and 7/16" closed length it fills a pocket nicely. Smooth as silk too! Note the really cool spacer in the rear of this one. Nice little pommel type protrusion off the back on it that I picked up on. Looks like the lock cut is left thicker than some. I like that and it appears to have a unique stop pin that is connected to just one side of the blade and rotates in a channel. Interesting design. Seems to work fine and now its back up to snuff with a new slightly thinned down titanium clip the same color as the handle. Thanks for looking. 2thumbs

I like the replacement clip. I never did much care for the clip on my Rockstar.
