Details

Designed by A. Kolesnikov, the Olamic Cutlery Whippersnapper is a followup to the popular Busker front flipper. Offering a more full size platform, the Whippersnapper retains the same top flipper design along with the premium materials, exceptional build quality and unique design aesthetic for which Olamic Cutlery is known. Compact and elegant in design, the Whippersnapper is an excellent choice for everyday carry in any environment with a size that is easy to carry yet up to nearly any task. This version comes with a dark tumbled, CPM-20CV Wharncliffe blade, Bronze Kinetic Earth handles with Acid Rain milling and matching clip.

Brand new, direct from Olamic Cutlery, USA.

Blade: Via blade hole or top flipper, the acid stonewashed CPM-20CV blade deploys fast and smooth on the ceramic bearing pivot. A large choil and spine jimping offer multiple grip options with a secure yet comfortable feel while the high saber grind and top and forward swedge grinds delivering a good balance of slicing and piercing performance with solid durability. Rugged and discreetly non-reflective, the acid stone wash will hide wear from use over time.

Handle: Designed with ergonomics and comfort in mind, the handle locks the knife into the hand in a solid three-finger grip or use the choil for added control and a four-finger grip. The titanium handles are finished in a Bronze anodized, brushed "Kinetic Earth" finish with Acid Rain hole milling for added traction. The interior of the handles along with the milled floating back spacer all have a polished bronze finish. Offering safe and secure lock up during use, the titanium frame lock is equipped with a steel lock face insert for smooth operation over the life of the knife.

Includes an Olamic soft sided zipper pouch and certificate of authenticity.

Carries via a matching right hand, tip-up titanium pocket clip.

CPM 20CV: CPM 20CV is a highly wear-resistant, powder metallurgy stainless tool steel, an analog to Bohler's M390, and offers some of the best corrosion resistance and wear resistance in combination with a relative ease of sharpening. These properties along with a working hardness in the low 60s HRC make 20CV a prime choice among custom and production makers.
