V&d da

[Reeek]

I was taking knife pictures tonight and this picture of my V&D DA came out pretty nice so I thought I'd post:

That is a very nice looking knife. Do tell us more about it, please.

Thank you, T.K.C. I like it very much.

Well obviously a collaboration between Butch Vallotton & Matt Diskin. The model number is VD-PS. Blue anodized scales with fine ribbing. It has the typical V&D/Lone Wolf type hidden scale release. The steel is NOT bead blast. AUS-10 steel. The manual mode is super smooth and easily flicks open with just a nudge of the tip of your thumb. The DA deployment is very strong and fast. The studs are the blade stop and lock up is perfectly stable in all directions. 3" blade, about 7.25 overall. Superb fit and finish. The liner lock is adjusted perfectly for now and future usage. I'd place the weight in the 4.5 to 4.7 range.

I haven't seen many of the V&D's with the blue anodized scales like this one. I'm not really sure what year it was made. She sure is a fine knife though. Very fine really.

I managed to get it for $99 shipped, NIB.
