As far as I know, the 'I' in AD20I stands for International...meaning one or more parts were from outside the USA. In this case, I believe the blade was made/ground in Italy but the knife was still assembled in New Castle, PA - USA! It is an awesome Demko to own...I almost bought one just before I came across my Cruwear AD20.Can anyone give me some background info in this knife: AD20i, Textured Titanium with Damascus steel ? I purchased it today, I just need to know more about it.

Thanks,

I can’t really add to what you wrote. The blade is international (Italy) and the rest is made “in house” at the New Castle Pa facility.As far as I know, the 'I' in AD20I stands for International...meaning one or more parts were from outside the USA.

That's about all I know about the 'I' version, butDemko Knives MWallace may have more or better info for you! Congrats on your new Demko!
yep, same here. I went lookin and only saw what i assume is your knife at the Arizona knife reseller. didn't see anything else really, but I didn't dig all that hard either........So Demko did do a textured titanium Damascus? Is it common? I cannot find much info, pics or videos of others.

Looks GREAT!! Congratulations!Ok, got it in hand. I also watched a video from Blade Show 2024 where Andrew stated this AD20I blade is from Italy with German Damascus. Here are some close-up pics.
