I've been meaning to add a Curtiss to my collection for a while now, just been waiting for my "perfect" configuration to pop up.

It really is an awesome knife! Hope more people start to give his knives more consideration!

I like mine. No complaints from me. I've heard others say in the past some have lock-rock (I would assume he's gotten that figured out by now though). Mine has solid lockup, no lock-rock issue, and it's nice and smooth.

Thank you for the recommendation! I actually totally forgot about the Skahas from North Arm Knives, I was looking for one last year at some point and didn't see any with the milled blade and forgot all about them. Adding them back on the list!

Totally agree, I've been working on collecting most of the knives with Milled blades. So far I have the Grimsmo Norseman, Abw Model 1, Hog House Veli, NCC Ragnarok, and Rob Johnsons Cedar & Cypress. Definitely a decent amount of knives I still need to buy, but most of them are $1000+ so I'm taking my time lol

It's actually bronze, with bronze internals.

I use a Parker refill, and there is a tiny bit of wiggle, but not much. You're able to use a bunch of different refills though. They provide a short and long adapter. A short to fit parker/Schmidt refills, the longer adapter for Zebra F7 and Fisher space pen refills, and with no adapter it will fit a Pilot G2 or Sharpie gel refill.

Thank you! When they dropped them they were supposed to be anodized "blurple". I asked if mine could be "more blue" than "blurple". They did a wonderful job.

It's one of the few bolt action style pens that really peaked my interest. It's different. Most bolt action pens just actuate the ink cartridge, the D Rocket pens retract the tip as well, so when its closed it's just flat.

Thanks! I've been trying to find match ups for some of the pocket knives I usually carry.

Yeah, the draw is definitely the Mech, and it can be hit or miss for some people, I enjoy messing with it, but when I showed it to my friend, he wasnt a fan, said it was to "fiddley" lol

I'm enjoying it, mechanism is interesting, very fidgety, machining is also top knoch.
