Hello dear friends,
With God's good will today i have the pleasure to present you a new concept of an utility knife - the Dragon-Fly.
All parts are CNC machined while the fit and finish was done by hand to assure a nice action and quality look.
The main body is made using 3k carbon fiber and black linen micarta, the spacer is made using vintage brown linen micarta while the pivot washer is made out of toxic green Juma snakeskin. The blade is sliding on cnc machined bronze washers and uses the Japanese OLFA CKB-2. The detent for both opening and closing is assured by neodymium magnets. The pivot is made using solid brass on my precision lathe.
The action is very pleasant and 'fast' with a nice pitch click. Please not that the blade does not have a locking mechanism and it acts like a friction folder once opened so this might be an advantage in places where fixed/locking blades are prohibited.
Of course that the overall setup is very light
The price for this knife is 95 usd (please ad 10 usd for shipping).
All and only the best, God bless,
Bogdan
