I can't believe it's been over a year ago.....
This was Jake and my 1st collaboration he called it the A10 Alpha I added the Terminator.
This was my proto it had a polished .200 Ti frame with a Acid washed 3.5"/.140 CPM 154 Blade with a Micro Roller Bearing system.
We made 7 in s35vn
Here is what it looked like

I just got it back from Jake last week. I had him Blast and Tumble the frame and he tumbled the Acid Wash. He also reworked the action and some other Hoback magic along with tapping for tip down carry.

I'm in love all over again! I'll be doing a video later today next to the ZT 560.
Thanks, Jake!

So you said it's a collaboration, what part of the knife are you responsible for? just curious. It's a sweet looking knife. love that stonewash. I really need to figure out how to do that :)

Washing machine + 30# bag of gravel + knife + Spin cycle = stone wash?

The design on this one was all Jake. I gave feedback, did the marketing and chose the steel and finishes we would do on the run.

Jakes Acid wash tumbled is amazing.
 
That is a sick, sick blade. The only thing I can think of that would improve the looks is a mirror-polished edge.

Congrats on your awesome knife!
