Holy crap, I didn't know such a thing existed.

I thought chain drive was the model, not the action! That thing is awesome!

Damn that's sick.

dylanjacobus · 2014-07-01, 10:15 AM

It looks like a very hefty/thick knife.

Wow, very cool. Would carry.

SiCO · 2014-07-01, 11:01 AM

That's so badass.

SiCO · 2014-07-14, 03:51 PM

Did you get this one yet? Im curious to hear your first hand review.

**zef** · 2014-07-15, 10:32 PM

Yep, got it. Very nice fit and finish. Sharp blade.

Only drawback so far is that the blade is a bit heavy and the deployment is consequently a bit less snappy than I prefer.
