Better/more photos, runs on bearings? and a price clarification would be helpful.

 

[GDSKnives]

Full price is 825 for the base model. Price will change if you want to add or change materials / dssign. I'll get some better pictures ASAP. Perhaps a video even.

 

[GDSKnives]

And yes, it does ride on bearings.

More pictures. Sorry if there are a few finger prints. It can be hard to get them all off a satin finish. View attachment 675713

How long have you been making knives and how many have you made so far? Have any of the Vipera models been subject to use over a period of time or are they being made and sold ASAP?

 

[GDSKnives]

I've just recently started making. Normally I make and sell them immediately, but the prototype I have kept and used daily. I've only made a few so far, but I have quite a few orders, so that number should grow quickly.
