and now the pics...

To borrow a phrase, "It's a nice knife." The pictures, as usual, really don't do it justice, especially the color of the anodized-blue handle.

The custom clip really goes with the knife well.

The following pic is the closest one to showing the slight iridescence of the blue handle:

You can see the cut-outs in the handle in this one:

Bad pic of good file-work:

Now that's a mirror polish:

Thank's for looking!

Mr Rats:

Since you pics just don't do the knife justice, I think you should just start passing that bad boy to all that wish to see it a little better.
Why did you name the knife YNOS?

Thanks! The thing about it that took the most adjustment, on my part, is how smoothly it fires. I figured it would hit pretty hard, being a custom, but it really doesn’t. For instance my PT TR-2 and Stinger are the hardest hitters in my collection. I thought, given it’s size the Z-Tac would hit like that. But it doesn’t, however it is just silky smooth in its opening and I’m learning to appreciate that characteristic.
Rats...
p.s. All of God's valley creatures, great and small, are welcome here.

Missalignment,
“A bit small” for what? Its not like I’m planning on taking down a buffalo with it (unless it is a special buffalo envelope I get in the mail). This thing will open my mail with the best of them!

Stepadoo,
A) p.m. sent on the passaround;
B) “YNOS;” I don’t know why I even try...

Great idea SD,but I think it should go to us feeble old Bastards 1st,ya know we don't have much time left,cough,cough,and we'd like to see it while we still can.
In case of early demise,arrangements will be made to send it on to the next one on the list.
