A true collector’s item, this unit comes with a VG-10 steel and black G-10 scales. It is brand new in the box and is in excellent condition.
First introduced back in 1998, it came in ATS-55 steel and I believe this VG-10 model is cerca 4th generation in its production. I've been using one as my EDC ever since and I can assure you that it is a very functional and capable blade for everyday carry.
I suggest going into the web and forums for a complete and detail description of its history and specification changes throughout its production cycle.
