I have a QSP Penguin in denim micarta and like it a lot. Wish there were more denim micarta options! Excited to see what you'll have!

I like that! Great work!

 

[lmcq784]

Thanks for fixing the video!
Very nice... Looks like there's a great texture and the color is fantastic too!

 

[NG VI]

Yeah the color and texture are both gorgeous, it looks like great micarta. I like that Kizer uses very nice micarta every time they decide to use it.

It's blue micarta handles on old models. Not worth making a new line just for that but it is just my opinion.

 

[NG VI]

I don't think they're talking about a whole new brand, just having a series of knives wearing blue denim micarta, probably limited to the core models like the Feist, Sheepdog, Begleiter, plus new models that seem interesting and commercially viable with it. No need to do another run of the Matanzas with blue denim, for instance, but there are a bunch of classic models that could see a denim version.

Personally I'd love to see the old Mistral come back with an updated grind (same blade but no recurve and a little thinner behind the edge, still hollow), bronze anodization, and this denim micarta for the scale inlays.

I'd like to see a the standard flipper 3.25-inch Sheepdog in the Blue Denim Micarta.

Edited to add:

I recently picked up the slotted opener (no flipper) version of the Sheepdog and the Domin in Canvas Micarta.

They are really well-done!

I'm all about new original models, which is why I love Kizer. They are not afraid to take risks either, like with the Cyberblade

I haven't tried denim Micarta but I'm interested. One thing that will keep me away is a coated blade. I don't like black clips. I don't even like black hardware if I can help it.

How about a Gemini or Mini Gemini, non-coated, either in N690 for budget or 20CV for premium, with thinner blade stock? I got one of the special-edition brown Micarta Geminis with thinner blade stock and that is definitely the way to go.

I've got the mini Gemini and I've got to say, the grind is pretty much perfect. I also love thin stock but I would be thrilled to see that grind as the baseline

They are the very first edition in Denim Micarta, the knives showing in the video.

Are the blades of the different Feist variants compatible with each other?

The rear end of the blade has been adjusted in order to fit well with the handle, which is the slight difference between different Feist variants.

So no framelock denim 4V Frankenstein's Feist for me, eh?

It's really pretty

 

[Mister_Punchy]

Again, not a fan of the denim line, but they seem to ship with a little denim tool roll instead of the usual knife bag, which is pretty pretty nice !

It's really cool that they are doing that. It's definitely not something I'd use but I know people who will and are excited about it. (The same goes for when knives come with stickers.)
