TwoSun Tuesday: TS232 NightMorning Design in Titanium wth 14C28N Blade(s)
Published: 2 years ago
Here we have a pair of knives. Same model number, same handle, different shapes. An incredibly aggressive clip point, and a sheepsfooty version. The sheepsfoot was one of my first stonewash attempts. It's not bad, but I think I've done better since.
These handles are (I believe) designed to look like jigged bone, but because it's a CNC pattern, the way it was implemented also looks like some Art Deco pieces (think BioShock).
These suckers are really popular for anodizing since they give a nice pop with all the machining. I haven't done that thus far, but I might get a wild hair up my ass at some point.
Handles are comfortable since they're quite neutral. Flipping works great and they're not very heavy. The grinds on the blades are pretty good as well. I do prefer the sheepsfoot as the tip isn't as delicate, but they're both nice.
TS232-Pointed Specs:
3.47" 14C28N blade with 3.7 mm stock thickness
3.27 oz / 92.5 gram weight
0.49" handle thickness (Ti)
Frame Lock
Ceramic bearings & detent ball
TS232-Round Specs:
3.48" 14C28N blade with 3.7 mm stock thickness
3.49 oz / 99 gram weight
0.49" handle thickness (Ti)
Frame Lock
Ceramic bearings & detent ball
