Off Topic Interesting handle finish from WE Knives

[b00n]

Looks like something the Joker would carry, I'm not the Joker. But then again I don't even like 99% of Mokuti/Timascus/Damasteel personally.

Not a chance in hell. Are there that many teenage Valley girls buying knives now?

I know that the finish used on the Tyche model looked cool,but wore off easily just from your finger rubbing on it when deploying the flipper, and on the edges as well as the rubbing of the knife in your pocket,too. Not sure how durable this finish is,but if it wears easily its going to look real bad.

Forgive my ignorance, but what's stripper ash?

I believe it was a joke and he means the actual ashes of strippers. Pole dancers.

He's right, I was just making a funny.

My first thought was George C. Scott as General Patton saying, "Only a pimp from a cheap New Orleans whorehouse would carry a knife like that."

 

[eon blue apocalypse]

Pretty sure it's just a gaudy metal-flake paint job. Looks like trash.

Could work well as small detail, maybe as liner but that’s a bit too in-your-face

 

[Comeuppance]

I’m secure enough with my identity to admit publicly that I want a sparkly purple knife. I would name it Lisa Frank, Built Like A Tank.

Yeah, I'm starting to think this is a painted finish. I had heard that about the tyche, too.

I saw 2 Tyche knives with this issue they were on the exchange I messaged one of the sellers to confirm the wear just from their finger rubbing on the spine of the handles when the flipper was pushed.I think that sparkley finish it too Wayne Newton for me....

 

[Rykjeklut]

Interesting, and I do like that makers do something new, but... No thank you.

 

[Mo2]

Hard pass. We knives have done some dumb things in recent years and this is one of them.

 

[The Aflac Duck]

Reminds me of the “Cracked Ice” finish on some of the Beggs.

Did the finish wear off completely? How does it look now in comparison?

 

[Wolverine666]

Definitely not for me. But it's certainly unique.

 

[bsshog40]

Different, but not my style either!

 

[evilgreg]

Could be meant for the rapper market, maybe?

 

[goldie]

In the spots that it rubbed the most the finish wore off completely.It just looked like the original silver metal finish under it.it did not look good with that finish worn away.What ever that finish is looks good but basicly rubs off with use.

 

[Hale Storm]

Tone down the color and add some grip to the titanium and I'm in.

In Minnesota we’d say, “Jeez, that’s really differnt”. It’s not a compliment.
