Flytanium Spyderco Delica Scales, titanium

The handle differs from the picture. There are 3 pcs of clip fastening holes just at the backside of the handle, so you can wear the knife in the pocket just at blade tip up position. For me the stone washed surface seems to be too aggressive, I suspect there is a reason why it is manufactured like this: the milling tool used to make the final shape was not perfectly sharp, which made the chamfer on the edge scratchy. With the aggressive stonewash finish, it was smoothened, but still visible. I started to make the surface with a sandpaper much better, but still not finished, since polishing titanium is not easy. So generally, the handle could make the knife look great if it was perfectly manufactured. Not even close to Spyderco original titanium handles in terms of quality, but can be "repaired",
