This week on Spotlight Series we’re looking at one of several drool-worthy custom knives just added to our inventory: this is the Custom DOC Flipper by the incomparable Anthony Marfione.
The DOC, which stands for “Death on Contact,” is a collaboration product between Marfione and Mick Strider of Strider Knives. It was originally produced as an automatic knife for the New York Custom Knife Show, and is now available in a manual configuration that is hand ground by Marfione.
It really is a beautiful knife. The four inch, hollow-ground blade is made from Elmax stainless steel with a black stonewash DLC finish. There is a large finger choil and a bit of jimping for improved grip. I really dig the dimpled texture towards the spine, and the extra-large thumbstuds are attractively milled, if not wholly functional.
The handle is nicely milled carbon fiber with some of the same texturing as on the blade. It features a frame-lock design and a milled backspacer, both of which are made from bronze titanium, as is the rest of the hardware on the handle.
It’s the attention to little details like these that makes Marfione knives – and the products of custom knifemakers, in general – such a joy to discuss and handle.
Beauty aside, this knife is a beast. The carbon fiber handle helps bring the weight down to just over five ounces, light for its overall nine-inch length, and great ergonomics and handle feel ensure that it will function as well as it photographs.
You can click the annotation or the link in the description to see more about the DOC Flipper. Fans of Marfione might also be interested in check out some his other customs, such as Socom Alpha – a gorgeous Micarta-handled fixed blade – as well as blades like the acid etched Anax folder or the incredibly compact UTX double edge AUTO.
Check back next Monday for another featured item. Have a great day.
