SPD Invictus-IBL - L-Micarta OD Green

Overview

This SPD Edition Invictus-IBL features OD Green linen micarta scales which will taken on a unique patina over time as the knife is handled by its owner. This variant of our signature Invictus design features a handle machined from a solid block of titanium. With the addition of scales to the solid block handle, this Invictus is described as an "Integral Bolster Lock" type folder. Each bevel, curve, contour, angle, chamfer, area of jimping, component and part has been meticulously detailed. It is the most production intensive version of the Invictus we have ever built and reflects an apex of our purpose driven, refined, functional tool aesthetic, design and production ethos at Prometheus Design Werx.

This is a precision made, EDC folder at its finest. We used titanium billet in the handle, pivot collar, and the pocket clip. The Böhler M390 stainless steel alloy blade runs on ceramic bearings for a smooth action. Dual thumbstuds with dive watch grade glow-in-the-dark inlays deploys the blade quickly and decisively. Rounding out this Invictus-IBL are the OD Green linen micarta scales which are hand fitted to the handle. No flashy, big logos or graphics or marks, just a subtle logo laser etched on to the pocket clip. For those who adhere to the philosophy of form follows function, find beauty in finely made, useful tools, and demand precision made mechanical objects, the Invictus-IBL is made for you.

Due to the complex, lengthy production process, the extra hand finishing work and associated costs required in the making of this particular variation of the Invictus folder, it is unlikely we will run this version again. This was a labor of love, perseverance and patience over 6 years to see this through to its final, satisfying conclusion. We hope those of you who choose to own this folder will appreciate the time and effort in its creation, and confidently enjoy the results.
