Allen Elishewitz, einer meiner Ansicht nach der besten custom knifemaker heute, hat eine Midtech-Version eines seiner Designs in verschiedenen Griff-und Klingenvatianten im Angebot.
Hier einige Bilder der Messer.
Nachfolgende Beschreibung hab ich von Allens Website übernommen:
blade length: 3 3/4"
handle length: 4 3/4"
blade material: CPM154CM black Cerakote coated
handle material: 3D sculpted G-10 frame with stainless steel inserts
spacer material: G-10
clip material: bead-blasted stainless steel
price: $475
This is the second version of the Midtechs I introduced earlier this year. They are called Lightweight because instead of a stainless steel integral frame, they have 3D machined G-10 frames with stainless steel inserts.
For those who are not familiar with the term "midtech"; it is a knife half manufactured and half handmade. The reason why I started this midtech series is to offer the collectors one of my designs with a lot of custom features at a lower price. I have made full blown customs in the past very similar to the construction and materials in these midtechs and they sold for several hundred dollars more. Because I am working with outside vendors, I cannot predict the availability of these midtechs; I will try to have them in stock but I am at the mercy of their capacity.
Some of the unique features of these knives:
Double ground blades
Double tempered, cryogenic, 58-60 Rc
Available in 2 blade shapes
Cerakote coating or tumbled finish used on blades
3D machined multi colored G-10
Stainless steel inserts
Exposed skull crusher
Manual button lock
Fancy pivot pin
Knives come in a very nice Specs-Ops nylon pouch
