This is the Mike One outdoor knife by Pohl Force. http://www.pohlforceusa.com/ The Mike is the second framelock knife from the Lionsteel Pohl Force collaboration called EOD or Euro Ops Division. Deitmar Pohl is the owner and designer. He has written several books on tactical knives and is very well known and respected. This is a top shelf titanium framelock with Niolox steel. My knife is unique in that it has no serial number. Phil at pohl Force USA tells me this was one of the very first made in production, and used for shows for a while. I've been in contact with Pohl Force through the development of PohlForceUSA and received this knife to give you my thoughts, test, and evaluate. Thanks a bunch to my mate in the UK Fog360 for helping me get the Pohl Force EOD patch before it was available here in the states!) http://www.youtube.com/user/fog360?no... From the Pohl Force website below With the Mike series knives, we have closed two gaps in our product line at the same time. Mike knives are the newest addition to the high-quality EOD series and therefore meet the same precise standards. With a 95 mm blade length and 160 grams weight, they range precisely between the proven Alpha and Bravo series folding knives. Mike One and Mike Two are therefore the perfect size for the everyday carry use. Our EOD product line consists of premium knives for particularly extreme demands. Our renowned production partner Lionsteel located in the city of Maniago, Italy, perfectly manufactures the EOD series according to our stringent design and quality requirements. All EOD series blades are laser-cut from one piece, the ergonomic scales are 3D-CNC milled, and therefore produced from a single piece of material. The D2 or Niolox steel hardened to 59 HRC guarantees absolute reliability and durability even in extreme applications. Various models, numerous functional options and our comprehensive range of accessories allow you to individually customize the perfect knife for your particular needs. PLEASE NOTE : MIKE ONE OUTDOOR IS ON IT"S WAY !!
