New flipper model

Okay, since nobody was will to step up and talk me out of it I went ahead and stonewashed the bevel. My wife says I need to get the Christams tree up today 🌲 so time is limited. Since I decided this knife is for me I want to get to cutting!

BTW- here's what I used for the orange peel.

The nail polish was dried out so I used this paint marker I had. A test piece had me believe it would serve as a good resist.

Boy I was wrong!!
I normally use ceramic triangles for my stonewash but bought these ceramics thinking it would give me shorter scratches.

Wrong again!!! What it did give was a nice subtle finish that I think suits this knife well.
 
Enough was enough. Sharpened and slapped together. The action is awesome! Well, except for overcoming the detent to close which I mentioned earlier. Lock up is solid and early and j can't feel any iota of side movement when closed.

Anyway, thanks for viewing!
