New Gen 3 with custom satin finished AEB-L steel. Red micarta scales. Black kydex sheath. Hand made in the USA.
Description:
Introducing the all new Counter Strike! A very capable, classy and aggressive looking down scaled version of the First Strike. With a cleanly integrated double guard leading into the swedged 4 inch clip point blade, it is very reminiscent of its larger counterpart bearing familiar characteristics of a fighter. It is not meant to be a pocket dropper, rather a belt knife that can fulfill the purpose of both utility and defense.
The handle is very comfortable all around with a gentle contour. The deep cut choil gives a very positive stop against the guard. A top guard provides a comfortable thumb ramp whether rested behind, in front or on top of the guard. However with a full grip the top guard has an 'out of the way' feeling, allowing you to choke up and squeeze hard with no discomfort. The inner grip reaches 3.9" to the pommel end which features the classic VGKC birds head that provides a full feeling with minimal beak, leaving the end open for bigger hands.
The 'taco' style sheath is very minimal with EDC in mind and is compatible with aftermarket attachments like TekLok, UltiClip and more. The sheath is fitted with a rubberized nylon strap that can be carried multiple ways.
