Comments: What can you say about Michael Walker and his remarkable knives? Well to start they are among the most rare and most desirable of all custom knives. You can also say they have remarkable design features and flawless workmanship. Better yet, you can say that they look and feel great in the hand.
This rare Vintage Walker has an ATS-34 blade and titanium scales anodized a dark rich black by a process Michael no longer uses. The frame and back spacer are of color anodized Titanium which really sets off the scales.
This is a remarkable knife and Michael tells us that the chemicals used in the process to create the rich dark black anodizing was so toxic he stopped using them!
Naturally the knife opens and closes perfectly smoothly and has the solid feel of a fine Swiss watch. This is the also one of the nicest looking vintage Walker we have seen.
Simply put - no modern collection of hand-made custom knives is complete without one! Go ahead and treat yourself!
