They did a great job with the production model. Made some pics on saturday. Flips nice too, blade is dead centered.

Here are a few pics of a customs of the same model for reference

Cool! Awesome design guys.

does anyone know if the production version will be riding on bearings or washers?

No IKBS logo so I'm 99% sure it is washers. Plus, the use of steel for the liners/bolsters makes me think they were trying to keep the price down and stuck with washers.

 

[BladeMan]

It's washers, yes. Bronze on the lock side and an oversized nylon one the other.

 

[MassMatt]

Looks nice. Very thick liner lock.

How's the clip? It looks pretty flimsy for a knife weighing nearly half a pound.

The custom version of this knife is my grail knife. I was happy to see there was a production version of this knife, but I think a design this perfect deserves better materials. I may pick one up, but I'm worried about it ruining my expectations. :-(

 

[MatthewSB]

Very cool knife, will look into picking one up.

Cool! Awesome design guys.

Going forward, you don't have to quote all 20 pictures to go along with your 4 word post

Very cool and eye-catching design. I also like the combination of satin and stonewashed finishes on the production knife blade.

I just placed my order for one through Blade HQ. :thumbup:

Persian style blades always make me squee. Boker Plus seems to be stepping it up.

I dig it! Nice design, nice lines. Looks stout but elegant.

It looks to me a lot like the Kershaw Tremor. That's not a bad thing!

I was thinking it looked a lot like a Volt or other RJ Martin Design.

Yessir. That too. I think it may just be the blade grind and the slightly canted handle that looks so similar? I'll probably pick one of these up. I like the Persian blade shape a lot.

 

[Bigbluefish]

Dang, I just bought their Kwaiken flipper; now this comes along? Must resist....

 

[GCG199]

I like it.

I have to agree with the pocket clip looking a bit flimsy too.
