New Viper 2

[La_Maleta_Azul]

Well, not really "new", but new to me. It's a 2001 model, so it has all of the old school goodness that one would expect - thin liners, domed pivot, and striking grind lines. The action is buttery smooth, and the knurled thumbstud gives great purchase. The only thing left desired is a pocket clip, which would make deployment a bit easier (although I can see why Ernie left the clip off of this model).

Here are some pics of the knife itself:

And some comparison shots. This thing is thin!

Nice set of Vipers! That Viper 2 is smaller than I thought it was.

That really is a beauty. Looks a lot like the A100. Are the handles G10 or micarta?

Thanks all!

The handles are a very smooth black micarta. Almost feels like bead blasted G-10.

WOW! That thing is small. Looks smaller than a Mini A-100.
