There are only two versions of the titanium model bump? That looks like a sweet knife, but unfortunately, they felt the need to pattern the handle after an early 1960's couch. Are the pics I'm seeing jsut not doing it justice? Do they look better in person? Usually high end titanium knives are more understated.
 
Buy one, they are awesome! Worst case, find someone to bead-blast the handle for you, but I loved the handle colors.
 
The handle colors look much better in real life...I've really fallen in love with the anodizing...now I'm looking for new anodized knives.

This is one of the best knives at any price...I EDC mine all the time.

Oh, they did come out with a different one, there are pictures around BF, but it was not anodized..I think it was just gray.

Also, you can of course just buy a KO custom if you have the cash.
 
Wild. Yeah that pic makes it look much better actually. It's just so... fancy or something, with the gold stripes. Don't know if I could see myself carrying it.

So they have a flat ti model? What is it beadblast finish?
 
Here's a pic from robertmegear's collection (BF member). Hope he doesn't mind me borrowing it.

I don't think it's a bead blast, thank heaven. Bead blast finishes really bother me on Ti knives...they scratch crazy easy. That's the main reason I didn't pick up a mini skirmish...I should probably do that about now though.

As for looking fancy, yeah, it does. I think it's a knife that takes awhile to be visually appreciated...I looked at it for probably a year from beginning saying "whoa, that's wild...neat, but too wild for me" and in the end (now) I want more knives that look like it. It's kinder of spydercoy that way.
