New Stone Washed G-10 Goodness from Kershaw

What kinda opener is that...on the OD-1?

Damn. No tip up on the Needs Work = No purchase from me.

And I like the look of it too.

That's not too hard to fix. If the G10 model is like the other one, it simply requires a couple of holes. There are nuts in the back of the scale that the clip screws go into. All you need to do is make a new countersink and plug them in. About 5 minutes of work.

NDJeep, the OD-1 uses a flipper-type opening. The flipper is not part of blade, it operates by camming mechanism. This results in less angular travel on the flipper than on the blade. Your finger stays on the flipper throughout the opening motion.

On the G-10 version the clip screws thread directly in to the SS liners, so you'd need to drill and tap.

Info on 14C28N is scarce. I did find a link to a discussion at Foodie Forums in Fred's Cutlery Forum, sounds like many of the folks at Sandvik are knifemakers in their spare time.
