Here is the second of my 3 Vegas scores, a full sized Vicarious framelock flipper from Gerry McGinnis. With a 3 7/8" and an 8 1/2" OAL, this one is built bigger and tougher than the Mini I also recently obtained.
Like the aforementioned Mini, this Vicarious framelock features a handrubbed 20C-V blade for great edge retention, a titanium lock-side handle slab, and a non-metal slab on the other side of the handle. In this case, it is orange G-10, which greatly increases visibility and should help prevent me from misplacing the knife.
Gerry's work is outstanding on this piece as well; of all of his flippers that I've ever handled, this one has the smoothest flip action. The lock up is rock solid, and the blade centering is near perfect.
I'm looking forward to carrying this one around, too. Thanks Gerry!
