I just had the pleasure of getting one of Kevin Wilkins custom Leafstorms. It is his first Leafstorm VI. It features bronze anno grips, an integral lanyard hole, pale green G11 spacer as well as a slightly re-profiled blade. This blade is made from laminated Damascus forged from 3 types of carbon tool steel, 1.2842 (O2), 1,2519 and 75Ni8. This knife is outstanding in all aspects. Kevin's attention to detail, design elements and craftsmanship are among the best in the knife industry. He also happens to be a great person to deal with.



I am a huge fan of the leafstorm. I had previously been carrying the spyderco version with his custom grip for the past year. My photos do this knife no justice. If you want to see better photos of the knife you can check out his web site. I also believe he has two more custom leafstorms available now.

I love the workmanship of my Leafstorm, but that huge pivot makes actually carrying it with the clip almost impossible, so it lives in my knife case.
 
I haven't had a problem carrying it at all. Actually the clip and pivot are two of my favorite aspects of the knife.
