DireWare Custom Knives are absolutely extraordinary. They are totally overbuilt like Medford Knives yet they flip and have the action of a Brous Blade. It's something you really have to have in your hand to appreciate the heft, stout lockup, smooth action, and easy to disengage frame lock. These knives are built to be used in the most demanding environments but the rarity of DireWare Knives makes this almost a safe queen for us all.
This M8 is one special flipper and another excellent design from DireWare. The multi-ground, skinner blade is made from 20CV super steel with a satin finish and tumbled flats and it really is a thing of beauty. You have a nice size finger choil for choking up on and jimping on the spine for your thumb. The handle is made from textured and blue anodized titanium with zirconium inlays and it has a nicely curved shape with a sort of simple elegance to it. The black milled titanium pocket clip is set up for tip-up, right-hand carry and is not reversible. The solid backspacer is made from black titanium, which adds weight to the butt end of the knife however it distributes the weight nicely to make the knife feel lighter when you're using it than it actually is. We love the streamlined look of this tactical folder, it is one of the most fantastic knives in our building, get it while you can!
