TwoSun Tuesday: TS311 NightMorning Design in Ti and CF Scales & 3.88" 14C28N Blade
Published: 2 years ago
Kerplow! This thing is big and brash, but still has elegant lines. I've been calling it the "Opulent" in my head for quite some time.
The thumbstuds act as the stop pin when opened, so I wouldn't advise removing them. No flipper tab here either, but you have plenty of blade outside the handle to open it with finger or thumb if you don't like the studs.
I could have used some knurling on the thumbstuds to give them some more positive grip... but I would have also appreciated some jimping on the blade ramp like they gave to the back spacer.
I guess I'd call it a heavily modified sheepsfoot as that's what the point termination looks like, but this thing has a lot of belly. It's ground decently thin as well. A great middle ground where it's slicey, but doesn't feel delicate in the least.
It's not going to make sense, but this is a "Chad" of a knife, with Fabio's locks.
Specs:
3.88" 14C28N blade with 3.7 mm stock thickness
5.11 oz / 144.5 gram weight
0.63" handle thickness (Ti & CF)
Frame Lock
Ceramic bearings & detent ball
