I use a 5-alloy zircuti (also known as zirconium-titanium damascus), machined from a solid forged billet: zirconium, 6al-4v titanium and cp2 titanium layers. What sets it apart from other layered titanium is that zirconium turns black or dark grey when heat is applied; therefore you get beautiful blues, purples, with slivers of black. Optional: you can order the scales with the lanyard hole. Please send me a message to make sure i can upgrade you. It’s $10 additional via paypl. The pictures show it without it, which would take longer to machine. Where you can add your personalized message to your order that will be laser engraved on your item ordered. Let me know which side (a or b) you want the engraving. One free gift per address.
