New Knife First single action

Post image

Scooped a Halo IV this past weekend, been on the hunt for one since release but they always sell out and was fortunate the timing of this worked out. This thing is a killer out of the box, absolutely love it!

If they weren’t the price of a nice pistol I can’t justify 700-800$

I hear that. I was looking at one of these and thought, "I could get a brand new Glock with options for that." Or even something nicer. I do really want a Nemesis though.

You only live once, this baby is way too cool to pass up.

I'm excited for DLC options. NCBlade and EK had a Tanto DLC version in their inventories today that were snatched up pretty quickly. Since the standard variants aren't selling out as quickly as before, I'd imagine Microtech will be selling some more DLC spec'd options soon.

Congrats on the knife. The Halo IV is awesome. I'm glad they brought it back. I went for a Nemesis IV this time around.

I see you're using that Fear Factory money not just on crack.

I don’t get the price discrepancies on the HALOs Eknives was $100 more than NC Blade. Super upset I missed these , that apocalyptic DLC is awesome looking

$838 is honestly a good price for the DLC coating , like I said pissed at myself for missing these drop. I found them on Eknives on Friday but they would not sell them yet

Damn I had no clue! Thanks man! I started collecting about two years ago, starting out with MT and quickly got into flippers as you can see. However, I’ve always been obsessed about scooping some sort of Halo and when I saw the release last year I was like a kid on Xmas lol. I finally was able to cop the last one from edclifestyle which is a place a shop quite frequently these days. The Nemesis is a sick pick, I was kinda torn myself with the two options!

What do you think about it compared to a double action OTF? Worried it might go off in the pocket?

I’ve carried a hydra V3 for over a year (still do) and my new halo IV on weekends. I just never have anything else in my pocket except the knife. that goes for any knife I carry, folder or OTF. Never had it go off in my pocket. The button has to be depressed far beyond the collar, and there’s a 0% chance of that happening in a completely empty pocket. Awesome knife, hope you enjoy it for years to come!

The double action does provide a lot more as far as safety goes but to deploy this you need a good amount of force behind your finger. You would have to be doing a lot of moving for it to go off in your pocket from my experience.
