Massdrop/Laconico Keen

[Officer's Match]

The pocketclip fits my hand just as you described. Another aesthetic I enjoy is the profile when closed - the blade spine forms an arc that looks like it flows right around the butt of the handle. Subtle and beautiful.

Somewhere around here before I took delivery, I opined that the Keen was the best piece of industrial design I have seen in quite awhile. Since using it now for a couple weeks that impression has been confirmed.

You know how we sometimes* check shipping status, for no good reason? I ordered my second Keen on Thurs, paid for four day shipping. Assumed four business days, putting it around Wednesday delivery. Checked today, because ... I’m a giddy, filthy knife whore.

Due today.

I must be a little hoe also Rbid. Mine was 200 miles away yesterday and the last time I checked it's only 60 miles away from it's new home. Daddy is waiting,...... impatiently. Home coming photos soon to come.

I'd kill for some spare cash right now....

Oh yeah! Very nice! I have the same one waiting for me when I get home from work.

Beautiful knife. I wish Ray would have worked with ZT/KAI.

Beautiful knife. I wish Ray would have worked with ZT/KAI.

Or that ZT/Kai would have approached Ray. They may not have expressed interest. Kizer, Reate, and WE are very active recruiting.

It would not have resulted in a better knife.

It would not have resulted in a better knife.

It really wouldn’t have. No way it would be ground so well for cutting. No hate for ZT, but they just aren’t doing this level of finishing or cutting geometry currently.

It would not have resulted in a better knife.

That's true, though it would have resulted in one I'd pay for. (shrug)

Different strokes, we all have priorities. This is actually the one design that finally made me by a Chinese company's work. It was just that good.

1st one showed up today, all I can say is YES... yes it is as good as everyone says... yes it is everything I hoped it would be... yes I am glad I bought two of them! On to the pictures!!!!

 

[Filoso]

I have one plain gray on its way. Now the wait begins... and seeing all of the beautiful pics... it’s gonna be hard ...

 

[marchone]

Great pics. Made me fondle mine. (I know. That was weird.)

 

[In Desolation]

Dammit you guys! I can't keep spending money like this. Well, I could...but I definitely shouldn't.

 

[Night Rider]

NO JOY! It looks like tomorrow instead. Great Photos BTW Looks like we have some professional knife photographers in this thread.
