<morality> I also own it. Great knife </morality> And, as a friend, I recommend you go to aliexpress and buy one of the $70 knockoffs. Unless you MUST have black, and want to pay that much more for it....
It's a beaut, but virtually identical to knockoff.
BRAILLENo, I would rather support the company that spent the money on research and development of this knife than some company that makes knockoffs from other people's work.
Brad_southardIf that really is you, creds on designing the knife which i my opinion is the best designed flipper out there. You should (and propably are) proud to have your name on such products!
Now I just wish I could afford this...
NymoThe email that OP uses has the domain southardknives.com, but Mr. Southard has not reached out to Massdrop directly. If OP can confirm privately or via a verified channel, I'd be more than happy to upgrade his account (free), to a Massdrop Verified Vendor. His domain knowledge in knives would be huge for the Massdrop EDC community.
Cheers,
Andy
NymoThanks Nymo! Im am really proud of this product. Since I started making knives, one of my dreams was to have a knife in production with Spyderco. So I was like a kid in a candy store when we got this project going.
Brad_southardHi Brad, if you see this, I have a quick question about this. First of all, this knife is awesome and I can't wait to get mine! Hopefully Massdrop gets it shipped soon. Very excited. Okay my question is, since the frame lock on the knife Is titanium on steel (no steel insert in the frame lock), have you guys done anything to strengthen the contact point so the titanium won't wear down? Thanks again!
Brad_southardTruth.
Do you by chance offer a version of this knife made by you? [Edit]
You're sold out in your store on the Southard Knives Performance Series Avo CTS-B75P. Any chance of doing a drop on those here? Beautiful knife, sir.
