TwoSun Tuesday: TS42 NightMorning Design D2 & G10 (Knife Content)
Published: 3 years ago
TwoSun Tuesday in which I out myself for being older by calling this the Atari.
It's got some interesting lines for an early NightMorning design, and I don't mean the gradient lines in the G10. With thumb notches taken out of both the handle and the blade, it's a bit wild, but still reserved in design.
It's got their older clip style on this (it will be much less of a broken record in the future once they moved away from this clip design).
It's also a bit heftier than it looks at first glance due to the thick blade stock.
The biggest pet peeve I have with this one though is the pivot. This is one of the few that having a circular pivot has caused me to be unable to disassemble this. I did once when I first received it and it required a hair dryer to heat up the pivot and some strong tape to get it open. I put blue Lock Tite in when I reassembled it, and I can't for the life of me get it open again.
Specs:
3.4" D2 blade with 3.9mm stock thickness
4.55 oz / 129 gram weight
0.6" handle thickness (G10)
Steel Liner Lock
Ceramic bearings & detent ball
