Grande nouvelle pour Mr Kevin Wilkins, la société américaine SPYDERCO a enfin mis sur le marché le LEAF STORM créé il y a quelques années par Kevin Wilkins.
Ce modèle créer par Wilkins date de 2006. La société SPYDERCO s'est assiciée avec lui pour sortir une version industrielle du couteau (on appelle cela une "custom collaboration").
Le couteau est enfin disponible sur knifecenter.com et il est possible de le commander... mais pour le moment la date de livraison est inconnu parce qu'il n'y a pas encore de stock !
Voici le descriptif en anglais de ce très bon couteau de poche :
Description
SP128GP: Leaf Storm
Spyderco
Why graphic artists make the leap to knifemaking is self explanatory. Their work in designing and creating art comingles with their knife passion, in some cases their knife obsession, blurring the lines between livelihood and hobby. American Kevin Wilkins started as a graphic designer and art student then an art director. He moved to Berlin in the early 90s where the knife bug really sank in. By 1995 he worked out how to make his hobby a livelihood and one of his favorite designs he called the Leaf Storm. Spyderco’s production version, like his original custom piece, fits and carries in the watch-pocket of a pair of denim jeans. It features a Chris Reeve style integral Lock with the back titanium handle scale doubling as the lock’s liner. Screw together construction attaches the titanium back to a natural colored G-10 front scale. A hollow-ground CPM®-S30V blade has a ricasso, spine jimping and is available in a PlainEdge.
