Titanium Vertigo - Sold! - Thanks!

[Mitchell Knives]

This is my Vertigo model, made from 6AL4V titanium. The knife is extremely lightweight, making it a great carry blade.

The opposite side of the blade has a carbide edge. This greatly aids edge retention on titanium blades.

The handle is quite comfortable in any grip. The nylon wrap is tight and uniform; very well done. The wrap has been carefully impregnated with epoxy. The under wrap is genuine sting ray skin that has been dyed grey. The menuki is a highly detailed dragon.

The knife is hollow chisel ground for a right hand user. Extremely sharp!

Not including the time for the epoxy to dry, I can generally finish the handle in an hour or so once I have the sting ray skin cut and sized. Once you learn the wrapping method, it's not too bad. It does take a bit of practice to get everything crisp and even though. Keeping the menuki lined up can be difficult sometimes.

Thanks Taylor!

I'm starting to enjoy working with titanium. It's a bit difficult to grind though!
