I love mine. Carried it at work all week. It has turned out to be an excellent EDC knife.NKD…the mighty MSI. Seriously, go buy your favorite flavor RIGHT NOW! Such a beast!View attachment 2533919
Thanks, Jay! I’d have to find the maker’s card for the exact specs, but we’re in the process of selling this house and my wife made me put away most of my toys. She was gracious enough to let me keep one case of knives and some fixed blades within reach, but everything else has been stashed into crevices, duct work and mattresses, lol.More info please....

As I recall the blade is 3.5”, Thor Damasteel. Guessing just over 7” OAL made by Johan van der Walt in South Africa. Scales are Richlite/Ti. I’m honestly not sure what model this is, he simply referred to it as a “gentleman’s flipper”. Note there’s no pocket clip, which I kinda dig.
Sorry I can’t offer more info, but selling a home after 25 years puts undue and unbearable stress on the central nervous system; I’m a wee bit frazzled. Before long I’ll probably start rambling on about something you didn’t even ask me about…like selling our house or some equally inane tangent….
Crap, that already happened, huh? Anyway, here’s a few “B-side” pics that didn’t make the cut today:

I guess I left this thread hanging… I posted about this over in the CRK sub I had walked by this mess of chars for months at work and finally one day I stopped and took a picture and have since started a little series! hahaha"This is my pile-of-chairs room. Don't worry about it." -Mustacheben
Terry I always love when you post a Chaves day! How did you come about your customs? I’ve been trying to get ahold of one for some time and have never seen one on the secondary and his books seem to be closed pretty much 100% of the time.
Very good! Thanks
You've been dealt a winning hand!I having a hard time putting this one down!
