Here to help you out a bit. (I have one on order right now, and would give a kindey to trade for yours)
AXD It comes in a 5.5" and a 4" version.
--from DDR's site--
I have completely redesigned my AFTERMATH heavy-duty tactical folder and it is now called The AXD (AFTERMATH Xtreme Duty.)
The AXD 5.5 is the first knife in the line and it incorporates all the design updates Ive done in the last two years. When I introduced the original AFTERMATH, its strength, size and tough character made it an instant classic.
Now after two years of hard use in the field, Ive been able to update it with multiple design, engineering and construction improvements to send it out again for extreme duty.
The AXD 5.5 prototype was carefully redesigned in consultation with one of my customers, a S.W.A.T officer, and it was built to provide an absolutely secure grip even if covered with blood. This was a tough thing to think about and design for, but the AXD is built for exactly those real life situations that we depend upon other strong rough men to handle for us. The AXD is the knife they count on when everything else fails.
The first design improvement is in the new three-dimensionally carved handles. I now offer you three handle options for the AXD
I have also improved the classic frame lock design especially for the AXD. I have engineered a new proprietary lock-up interface that I build standard into every AXD. When your AXD blade is open and locked, it stays locked and there are no situations where human strength will fold it closed onto your fingers.
This complete overhaul makes the AXD the toughest custom made tactical folder in the world. With an S30V® blade and the SAO semi-automatic opening system, no other custom tactical folder even comes close to it.
