Ok time to enlist the help of the massive brain trust of knowledge on this forum.
I'm looking for something like a Christensen Knifeworks Brute and would buy one of those but when I contacted Matt he said orders would open up sometime next year and I have found none for sale. I also considered a Direware but I think there just a little too big for my EDC needs.
So who else makes a quality short blade sturdy flipper along the Direware / Christensen style.
1) I'm looking of a knife $500 - $1200 range, possibly a little more if it really calls out to me.
2) must be a flipper (prefer bearings over washers)
3) blade not over 3.3"
4) Frame lock preferred over liner lock
5) Ti or CF scale, possibly something else exotic.
Not interested in any CZ, BM, Spyderco, etc, etc type knives, I already have all of these I need.Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Forget trying to search for a short / stubby blade flipper knife, I got too many links to help with ED.
Almost forgot it needs to be something I can actually find and purchase unlike a Christensen Brute.
Thank you in advance.
