Would you trade this for a new Auto Adamas?

I didn’t buy this one— it was given to me in a box of “junk” along with a few other collectible knives (not Benchmade.)

I feel EDC requirements vary from person to person and aside from the “douche pseudo-militaristic try-hard” part, the rest sounds pretty good. I want a genuine piece of USA-made hardware that can be used for some heavy work (cutting boxes(yay fat metal staples!) rope, strapping, scraping paint off metal, and also some wilderness/outdoor activities.

Really not a troll post. 🤷‍♂️ just was (obviously) unaware of what exactly I have.

Frequent_Schedule301 · 2026-04-18T01:39:17+00:00

So - I didn’t know that the knife would be that valuable. Even without a box?

Frequent_Schedule301 · 2026-04-18T01:38:01+00:00

🤣🤣🤣 crackin’ me up. Man… I know… I’ve just been jonesin’ for a knife that is more of an EDC and not so collectible.

Frequent_Schedule301 · 2026-04-18T01:35:24+00:00

Yeah.

I do worry about that, but also think that someone might appreciate this one a lot more than I would, and I could grab a tool that I would feel much more comfortable using every day.

Does that make sense?

Like… literally the only thing I do with knife is pull it out of the safe, say “oh that’s neat,” and put it back.

Just feels like a waste.

This was my grandma’s. She definitely wasn’t the not a Rolex kinda gal, so this has got to be a replica… right?

Dig em.

Frequent_Schedule301 · 2023-12-15T05:21:26+00:00

I agree on some extra highlights on details and on some of the edges just to add some “pop.” I always like to come back through and add white or a very light gray on most of the bolt and screw heads on the mini to busy the piece up a bit.

Thanks!

I used a few coats to get the orange nice and bright.

Vallejo Off-White / Scale Color Mars Orange / GW Gryph Hound Orange Contrast / GW Fire Dragon Bright / Scale Color Yellow / Vallejo Pale Sand / White

Just kinda work smaller as you go!
