Got my superblue stretch today. Digging it. Think I'll LOVE it with some micarta scales. The scales don't annoy me, but they don't excite me either.
Curious...didn't realize that it wasn't corrosion resistant. Makes me a little hesitant.
Rich / Adam...is the "hamon line" really the layers in the different metal types?
Super slick design... yep, the super blue steel is laminated with another and the super blue will take a patina.

I'm about 50/50 between fixed and folders. But my edc keeps going from a Byrd Cara Cara 2 and a Benchmade Mini Grip. The rest just stay in the box.

Super slick design... yep, the super blue steel is laminated with another and the super blue will take a patina. What Rich said. If you look at the spine in the right light you can see the three seperate layers of steel. The super blue is the meat in the sandwich and the stainless is the bread. Should be easy enough to maintain, and it'll look really cool when the super blue develops a patina!

Only a knife nut would understand the time I spent googling to find a shop that had one a few months ago. Was pure luck.
I've seen a few go on BF recently at a decent price. I think there are some sitting in drawers out there..maybe in the WTB section?
Next...Hogue EX-04!!!
