Hey guys, consolidating some of my production folders to get up enough for another mid tech/custom... Price range is probably $550 or lower...I tend to lean towards larger, overbuilt folders, smoother the better, and I do love a good flipper.
In my collection so far: Strider SNG in PD#1, ZT 0561, Brous Blades division flipper, Benchmade triage.
 
Anything that I don't have to wait for months/years for or pay a ridiculous amount on the secondary market for? :P Cause i'd love a kawaibak, a ferrum forge, and a dalibor.. but aren't they all very busy and backordered?

If I remember correctly Elliot was just finishing up an order of 25 pretiums, I think he's sending them in a couple batches. all going to blade HQ. he posted the video about a week ago. :)

Vagnino Velox. almost a 4 inch blade. It costs $550 if you get it without the moonglow accents IIRC.

Here's mine and it's awesome:

You can order it directly from Michael Vagnino, he's on the forum. Turn around should only be a couple of months.
 
John Grimsmo Norseman; amazing flipper, full titanium. Did I say amazing flipper?
 
Not really a bodega guy :/. I kind of do like that Norseman though. Not a huge fan of recurves, but I like it anyways! But also not in stock :(
 
Les George VECP 2.0, with CTS-XHP steel. I've been wanting to try one. If I get rid of some stuff, perhaps I can fund one.
 
VECP, just got mine today and love it! Jason Clark makes awesome customs for a reasonable price, as does Ray Laconico. Alan Davis, Will Zermeno are some other makers that fall into that realm. If you can get a Clark do it! I love mine.
