Very nice - and it looks to be very well made!

I like the deep carry clip - very nice!

Thanks for the pictures and congratulations!

I have an another question: What is the utility of the tiny clip at the back ?

Its an over travel stop for the lock bar I believe. It prevents over reaching the lock bar and unspringing it.

Are you sure? The lockbar cutout ends well before that clip would come into play. I would say it is just a classy way to fill the holes for the alternate clip placement option.

It DOES say "lock stop" on it. I don't have any idea what that means though.

It's a place to hold screws. Seriously.

Ok not quite. The real purpose is if you flip the clip for tip up carry. You then put the lock stop on the top near the pivot to prevent from over extending the lockbar when you close the knife. With the clip mounted as you have it in the pic, the clip serves as the lock stop.

Bad-ass man. The AXD is a king in DDR's line of customs. May it serve you well.

Not long ago there were images of an AXD posted to the Hot Off The Bench sticky thread. I was wondering who the lucky new owner was. Now we know. It's a real beauty.

I've already placed an order for an AXD with Darrel - just waiting for the word. :D
 
How much did that cost? I really want one! Selling my benchmade 42 to rack up cash.
 
Hey Jan that is one kickass blade, maybe I can check it out one day, we live 5 min fromeach other
