DEK1

Been playing around with mine for a week or two..Great knife. CPK team, you guys knocked it out of the park (again). Wish I could have taken two of these on my last deployment.

I've also been using it for some bushcrafty things just because I'm stubborn, I guess. No issues yet batoning through some harder wood, but I tried to avoid knots. The thin edge makes great feather sticks.





I know how you love your TeroTuf, I love it too!...couldn't get any for my DEK and had to settle on next best thing, unbuffed tricolor rag mic.
 
@Casinostocks
Is the double black you posted acid washed? It looks darker… and frankly, fantastic.

@Everyone
Someone requested upstream a bit if anyone has pics of double black UNbuffed.
Im +1ing this…
Amped I got a seat at the table friday. Amped.

This one is unbuffed double black

Glorious–thanks for putting those up. Is that Ti hardware also?

Ive been spoiled with ebonite on a few of my other blades and honestly love the feel AND the look. Im also a terotuf junky… so Im thinking the unbuffed double black may be a good balance of the two. That blade also looks acid washed or darker. Is that just how it came?
Beautiful blade sir.

If its not too much to ask, could you get a shot from the end of the handle? I read somewhere about the possibility of a lanyard hole. Does the DEK have one? I dont recall seeing a verdict as the whether or not it was added.

There is a lanyard hole. This one is acid washed with Ti hardware:)
I really like ebonite. Following the same logic as you I ordered the unbuffed double black and I'm really happy with it.
This is a fantastic knife.

Im gonna have to copy your move here if its offered, the acid wash is dead gorgeous! I have an MC acid washed with ebonite, and its one of the sexiest knives I have. Aside from the aesthetic, im not versed in acid wash. Is there any benefit or detriment to having that done? Thanks again for putting up the pics. This is the first 'end shot' Ive seen.

The acid wash with ebonite or black handles look real cool
I think on d3v it's mainly aesthetic unless you need the anti-glare help.
