Just saw this beauty on GPKnives Instagram page. Looks like melted chocolate :p

Too bad it wasn’t the backlock version getting this treatment.

Man, what a brain-fart... I carry M2LW a LOT, and would swear the hook wasn't that prominent... (Just went to look)...

I'm gonna let them percolate... At the moment, to me, they're....... different.

Only guessing, but it looks like regular g10 with intentionally skewed layers instead of neat flat layers.

hmmmmm...not my cup of tea. Not diggin the scales and bored with all of the S90V. I mean what's the point of doing all of these S90V sprints when S110V is a production steel...with better scales (yes...I love the blurple)? GImme something I can't get everyday. More Cruwear, 3V, 4V, PD-1, M4, 52100, etc. Any of those in DLC and i'm all over this...but would definitely be swapping out those scales.

not a big manix fan, but I really like the scales and hope to see that on more models. S90v is a great steel, dlc is very good blade treatment, so IF I was into manixs I"d get one.
