CR5704: 5074 Nucleus Flipper - Carbon Fiber

CRKT

Unleash your imagination with the Nucleus, a testament to custom knifemaker Princeton Wong's genius and creativity. Known for his imaginative, captivating, and supremely unique designs, Wong has crafted the Nucleus to stand out. Inspired by the mecha from his favorite childhood TV show, Mobile Suit Gundam, the Nucleus features aggressive angles reminiscent of a stealth fighter. This upgraded version, made in Italy, boasts CPM-MagnaCut blade steel, offering an unbeatable combination of toughness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. The Nucleus not only captivates with its unique appearance but also impresses with its exceptional functionality, allowing for three different opening methods: front and rear flippers and a finger hole in the blade.

Disappointing

One point for design, one point for materials, minus three for workmanship. The knife looks great, the materials are top-notch, and their finish is very good, but the fit of those materials and the construction of the knife is so poor that the knife is unusable. I own several other CRKT knives. They are of mediocre quality, but they were not expensive, and their quality fits their price. I bought this one at a bit of a discount, and it is still some of the worst money I have spent on a knife.If you are a collector and looking for a Princeton Wong design to display in your collection, one that you never intend to use, you may be satisfied with this one. Mine is in the junk drawer. I am very disappointed with this purchase and am frankly embarrassed to own this knife.
