I hope you all love this little guy as much as I do!

Handles are titanium with Olamic's high polish "Frosty" finish. Doesn't show fingerprints and catches the light at every angle.

The holes are their "Acid Rain" random pattern weight saving technique with anodized purple chamfers. Integrity of the knife is not affected.

Purple hardware and frosty purple clip really make the green pop. I think it looks super alien!

The blade is satin M390 in their "Semper" configuration.

There are apparently 10 different ways to open this knife. Built with fidgeters in mind!

Backspacer is their rocky seabed titanium molding pattern.

Timascus pivot collars to round the whole thing out.

I've been playing with it since last night and as far as I can tell this is a perfect knife. Still getting the hang of the front flipper but the action and detent are just sublime. These guys really knocked it out of the park with this design, finish, drilling, everything!!

One of the nicest high-end folders I've seen in a while. The more I look at it, the nicer it gets!

Congrats.
 
That's a real Sweetheart! I hope my lefty Busker looks that nice...


 
Thanks everyone! Can’t tell you how pleased I am with it. The pics do NOT do the finish justice!
 
How long did it take to get to you: once you approved the build?
 
This is the first Olamic knife I've seen since becoming acquainted with Olamic's website and "Options" for commissioned knives. I think I spent 2 to 3 hours going through each and every one. With such an insane number of decisions to make, not sure where I'd even start... everything was pretty cool and unique. I suppose that's the dream! So nice work... very cool looking knife! And I guess I now have a grail.

Yes it took me several days to settle on these options, and boy was it a tough choice! What's maddening is even when you put a perfect grail together, there are 5 other combos like sculpted frames, different hole patterns or a totally opposite finish that would make equally awesome knives! Had to just bit the bullet and go with what looked dope, and boy am I happy. Glad Olamic is getting love on here!

Yeah really outta hand. Not sure I've seen anything like that in this knife world. Anything else compare?

I haven't seen anything else out there with this level of options. If it does exist I'd be willing to bet their books are full for months like most makers these days. I could be wrong, but I was quite surprised at their turnaround!
 
I got my Wayfarer in 9 days. The lefty Busker is taking longer; but it should still be less than 3 weeks. Both of them are full-on customs.247 00.jpeg
