This is a completely custom handmade knife by Howard Viele, his answer to the CQC 6. It has a 3 1/2" chisel ground aggressive tanto blade out of ATS-34 steel with a beadblast finish and ambi hole opener. The handles feature bb'd titanium bolsters, black micarta scales, thick titanium frame, and an inset liner lock bar. The handles have a matching tip up clip and Howard's signature trispoke engraved on the golden disc. This knife has been carried and shows very light use - there are a few light scuffs on the bolsters for example. The action is silky smooth and the lockup is rock solid without any movement at all. Howard Viele is a superlative craftsman and he made this knife back in the pre-CNC days when knives were individual pieces of artistry. New, this knife sold for about $675, and the fit and finish are truly superb.

Asking $old OBO shipped in the USA.
