Steve reprofiled my Rodent Solution and it is air-bleeding sharp. Yesterday I picked up a Delica ZDP, a Manix 110 and a Scrapmax that he sharpened for me. I packed the Delica today and it is sharp. Steve is a real good guy and your knives don't have to leave the country.

Stephen did some pimp work for my Hinderer 3.5 lately, ground off the flipper tab on blade, dark acid stonewashed non-flat on blade to give it 2 tone look, dark brown anodized frame and sharpened the knife for me, now I have a very cool looking knife. thanks Stephen.

Here is mine Umnumzaan done by Stephen,bronze anodized scales and sharpening.Great job.
 
Just finished a project with Stephen. Communication was second to none and the sharpening and bead blasting are both perfect! Will definitely come back for more projects!

Stephen matched up the finish on the titanium scales of a couple spydercos. Plus a little tech support after the fact. Couldn't be happier. Thanks again.

Here are some before and after pictures of an OKC Carter Prime

Best buy of the year in my opinion. They did save some expense in a few areas but most can be easily fixed.

1. Subjective con - the sharp butt end of the frame
2. No lanyard hole when there is plenty of room
3. T6 hardware
4. Non removable lock bar insert
5. Half sized IKBS
6. A bit of a billboard of advertising on the blade. That can easily be blasted then tumbled.

They do use hardened steel washers so the ball bearings don't wear into the titanium. The 3D milled pocket clip is not an extremely stiff clip. It works good and it looks good. Generous jimping which is quite functional. This knife has great flipping action with a very free dropping blade which almost falls out on its own weight.

All in all, I highly recommend this knife if you don't mind doing a couple small modifications.

I've found higher voltage colors to be more durable. This was in the tumbler for 30 minutes!! The ceramic tumbling media hardly touched it.

I have carried this knife about 30 days and still no marks. Snail trails are a thing of the past.
