Thanks. The little stag teardrop is a Hiroaki Ohta custom. The little Chinese Parrot ti framelock hawkbill flipper is said to be a Dmitry Sinkevich/SiDis design. I don't know for sure but it certainly seems like it. It's ridiculously overbuilt for its size. The blade thickness is similar to that found on an overbuilt 5" to 6-closed flipper! That said, the ergos and build quality are excellent and it's surprisingly useful.

A couple of classic lock backs there, you should have all of your cutting duties covered with those two! :thumbup:
Iv been eyeing one of those. Seems like it would make for an awesome EDC.
Awesome EDC indeed bro! :thumbup: It just seems to check all the boxes for me. I've got 3 other fixed blades approximately the same size, but this blows them all out of the water as far as I'm concerned. It's my first M390 blade, came razor sharp (the bare patches on my arm will attest to that) and I really dig the stonewash! Still has much, much testing ahead....(can't wait!) but so far it's exactly what I've been searching for! The only concern I had was the sheaths retention, but upon the first time pulling it out that concern disappeared. I'll sum it up like this, every time I hold it, my underwear gets tighter.

Id love to hear some feedback after use/testing/carrying! Looking at the Guardian3 and a Bark River Fox in 3v. Different sizes/steels but Ill probably eventually end up with both before the year is over
Need an EDC fixed blade besides this D2 Adams.
*condolences for your poor underwear
