Stiletto's 2023 Demko AD20.5 Purple Rain & Brass Flytanium Build
Published: 1 year ago
Okay, so you know I had to have a new Purple Rain, SDUEDC Folder for this year. But, I already have too many AD20.5's... I absolutely luv the New CPM-S35VN, G-10 & Carbon Fiber Models with the nicer Demko Pivots. But, I just couldn't justify buying another expensive AD20.5... :-(
So, i decided to Mod one of the one's I didn't ever use last year. Then, I saw the New, 2023, Flytanium, AD20.5 Parts. :-) Oh, and they had Purple Peel Ply G-10 Scales... :-) I had to have them! :-)
Have a seat. Get a snack and refreshment. :-) Let's see if we can build a New "Purple Rain," for 2023! :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)
