The Elusive Gold Leek

So this Kershaw Leek was gold plated? Or had a gold colored coating? Or what? I've never seen such a version.
 
Is this like a Ken Onion custom or an after market custom or a super limited edition version cause I've never seen one.
Pics would be nice. :)

I remember that version. Too blingy for my tastes, but you have my condolences. Start a WTB thread and hope for the best.

I always thought the 1660BG was dead sexy. Black blade and handles with gold hardware. I'da bought one if 440A didn't suck so much.

I'm pretty much a steel snob but even I have to admit that Kershaw made me respect 440A. They did Aus 6 really well too.

Come to think of it they have done them all well. Me liking S110V isn't as much as a surprise as me liking 440A though.

Me too. I have a Rainbow Leek that I really like. It's my favorite folder.
 
FYI they are back in production again just search 1660gld leek. I just got 2 today the straight blade and combo. My black and gold leek was droped on the pavement by a drunk friend and trashed the tip. Im swapping the gold clip on it for the stainless clip thats on the 1660gld to make it all gold and more unique.;)
 
May this unholy fiend"s offspring be born without thumbs so they may know not the joys of Speedsafe operation.

Also, on a side note, a Google search brings up two places with the knife in question currently in stock. $57.95 plus shipping.

Have fun storming the castle,
