Sexy. Green and black linen micarta?

Has anyone received a DEK with a swedge yet?

I’m looking forward to seeing a DK1 with swedges. I believe the swedge might make a great knife even better.

I'm looking forward to seeing 'MY' DEK1 with the swedge and penetrator tip!

Thanks. Yeah, it is a sexy knife. As for the color - I think yes, green/black (I think). Very pale green with a skin condition. I'm not really up on all the color variants but I think that is what this one is called.

Green micarta DEK1.

Worked great, gutted, split pelvic and later used it for skinning, only then did I need to strop it.

I believe it is OD green, unbuffed, gets darker with use and has plenty of grip. Nice picture by the way Ray.

I would've guessed those were double red scales!

That’s what those knives are for, precisely. Congratulations.

Nice bull man. Congrats.

Thanks again for letting me show these off, y'all.

I can't wait to see them on my Preorder DEK1.
Thanks T.

I am not a trusting person and when I saw the specs I thought the DEK1 was way too close in dimension to the FK2 (which I own). I didn't believe everyone when they said the DEK1 has to be held to be admired or that its has a life all its own, no matter the specs...
WOW.
I need to trust more!
This is knife TRULY has to be held to be believed. I thought it would be too small for my hands, but oh no, I was wrong again. It feels remarkable. It feels like it belongs in the hand. Another knife hit WAY out of the park! Believe what you read about the DEK1! It is amazing and my new favorite.
(BTW... I got a AEBL with black and red linen micarta unbuffed... love the grip of the unbuffed!)

Ditto, I almost didn't acquire one because it was so similar. It really has to be held to be appreciated. I absolutely love this thing!

You are going to love it!
It is an amazing knife. I have owned 6 or 7 different models and the Dek is my favourite.

Red black unbuffed look amazing NYCDan.
The first I have seen of it

I'm sure that I will! I only have the UF so far and I love it. But the DEK1 will be better for EDC since the blade is a little shorter.

Hello ladies and gentlemen! This is my first pre-order. How does it work about finding out what the Mystery wood is? Does Nathan or Jo say what it is when they start mailing them out, or do we wait until people start receiving their knives to find out what the Mystery wood is?

There is typically more than one wood used... and you get what you get... I think.
