[Bastard]

it may not be fancy but it is the only thing that I have carried besides my ZT that I bought back in 2014... Titanium flipper utility knife by Exceed Designs $65 off Amazon

[mrboma]

$31 shipped CA auto? sold... Boker sub kalash camo - beefy spring, sharp AF

You cost me just shy of $100 after picking up 3 of these little monsters.
Wife got hers yesterday and I had to remind her to hold on tight. These little guys open like they're mad at you! Third one (oddly enough) is also going to a range buddy. Made in Taiwan if anyone is curious.

Quick shout out to Alex @ BladeOps... I have a glue sniffing mail person that had issues with proper delivery. Alex was ready to jump in and make it right. Phenomenal customer service from a company I had only spent $31 with. Buy with confidence.

Regards,
Mike

I was at Smoky Mountain Knife Works in Sevierville Tennessee, and couldn't resist.

Don't take your wallet if you go there...

Nice one. I think there was one on Blade Forums a while back or somewhere... had to be there, but rarely seen.

Where did you score yours? I love those. I've had quite a few from newer runs. I had a Zombie Green coated one at one time, but now I have two or three of the polished LE's. Wicked blades.

That is a sweet blade.

Man, that ZT0452 really gets my juices flowing. I know it's not your latest purchase, but every time I see one, I wish I'd bought one when they were a current offering. The lines on that knife are just gorgeous. I have a couple folders with 4"+ blades (Spyderco Native Chief in CF with an S90V blade and a John Smith custom from his SD series. I love them on paper, but in EDC use, I find the giant blade cumbersome. That said, if walking through certain neighborhoods at night, I feel more comfortable with a long, slick blade.

That one is not as handy as something like a ZT0456 for cutting tape, but it really isn't bad and for a longer blade it is only about 4 ounces and balances right behind the pivot and flipper... I still want to find the Ti scale version. I had that thing forever and had a crazy rotation of all kinds of Spydercos and ZT's but now I just carry the 0452CF... it is a do it all folder. It does seize up shortly after it gets into salt water though and the original clip sucks.

I think it still is a current offering even though it is old. It stayed popular and in-production AFAIK and I think it is still in-stock at Blade HQ, Knife Center, DLT, EBAY dealers, SMKW, etc...

Easy to get the satin or black washed sprint run right now I think. Sprint run is on EBAY for about $250.

The handle is all wood past the pivot so you can whittle down considerably for custom shape following the blade profile and making it bit more svelt in the pocket and even lighter weight. Yeah, its REALLY light weight. I bet if I took some metal off the blade and left all the wood it would actually float.

If you don't have a Mayo, be it a custom or production variant, you're missing out. Tom is one super cool guy and his designs are sublime. He spent many years shaping surfboards and the lines come across in his knives. They are sleek, but also built from top shelf materials that are designed for real work.

The Persian this guy is selling is gorgeous.
