Joe Watson OT - Stonewashed/Cord Wrapped w/Menuki

About the OT Model: Folders are great, but the fact is that they are nowhere near as quick and surefire to deploy as a fixed blade. The OT is a step away from Joe's normal designs, that of super lightning fast, no-nonsense defensive knives. That's not to say that its not both lightning fast and no-nonsense, but that the design definitely has more of an all-round utility blade design in mind. The drop point blade is excellent at all sorts of tasks. The thin stock paired with the hollow ground edge makes for a blade that has superb slicing and cutting capabilities. The larger handle is easy to control in multiple positions, yet sized to be carried all day. The handle profile feels more akin to a utility knife/chef's knife. Comes with an ambi Tracker Dan kydex with with IWB clip.

The Blade: Hand hollow ground drop point profile with satin flats and stonewashed grind. 

The Handle: Two tone black and red cord wrapped handle with copper menuki.

The Sheath: Ambidextrous Tracker Dan kydex sheath with an IWB clip for a low profile and secure carry.

About Joe Watson: Joe Watson is like the stealth Bomber of the knife making world (back when it was classified). There tend to be knife collectors, and then knife users, and by users we mean guys doing serious stuff that train with a blade as a way of life. If you have heard of Joe Watson, they have probably come from these users. No flash, no hype. Just clean, purpose built, hand crafted defensive tools.

Note:  A slight 'scratch' is present from the sheath and can be visible in the right light (see pictures).
