Nice user pic Matt, you get props for using that grail Tilt.:thumbup:
 
God I want a Tilt so badly, all searching comes down to far overpriced or too late. D:

That knife just screams to be used and abused(gently)

Yeah, I don't think it's fair to say overpriced however... There's only a finite amount of them left...and they're such a fantastic knife, the only one to my knowledge that has the Vanax75 blade steel... I'd argue they are WORTH the price of a Sebenza or Umnumzaan... which should clue you in a bit to what I traded for mine.... I say, buy one now, give it a year, and sell it for double if you're not in love with it. In the meantime, be gentle with it, but by all means carry it.

These days I've seen then somewhere between 275-400$ depending on how the Exchange (or Cove) is running that week. a DLC one just sold for 450...I'll just say, all the postings have them sold, they're not sticking around long. I'm just glad to have one in the stables. Probably won't ever sell it.
 
Get a SW Tilt to use and then a DLC Tilt to put in the safe.;):thumbup:
 
I was lucky to get any Tilt. It has a totally different feel than the 0560. This one takes a good bit of pressure on the flipper, then pop it flies open fast and hard. My 0560 is a lot easier to flip and it seems a lot lazier. The blade just sort of glides open on it, with the Tilt it's like wham suddenly it's just open!

Yeah in my opinion, that's a detent flipper done correctly... I don't think flipper blades should just laze open like that... All my custom flippers pop open quickly, and I prefer it that way.
 
Never regretted anything more than getting rid of my TiLT the first time. Just grabbed one on the exchange, Can't wait to have it back! I'll add some pics here when it comes ;)
