WEK18046D2: WE18046D-2 Jim O'Young Synergy 2v2 Integral Folding Knife - Flamed Titanium
WE Knife Company
The Synergy was designed by retired mechanical design engineer turned competitive shooter Jim O'Young. Jim leveraged his knowledge and experience to design and engineer the SpeedTech Synergy folding knife using SolidWorks, a state-of-the-art, 3-dimensional, solid modeling CAD software tool. It was the very first knife created using this technology and featured several design elements never seen before in a production folding knife: an ergonomic, fully 3D digitally sculpt surface handle machined from a single, solid billet of material, a captive floating bearing system, and a button lock with increased engagement geometry. The Synergy was truly way ahead of its time and was awarded the Most Innovative American Design at the 1999 BLADE Show by its industry peers. On the 20th anniversary of the original Synergy design, Jim partnered with WE Knife to continue the legacy and introduce an updated and re-engineered Synergy 2 to the next generation of cutlery enthusiasts. Now, the Synergy 2v2 is here with the same great feel yet a completely different look.

Titanium Handles
A nonferrous metal, it's prized for its high strength to weight ratio and is often used on higher end knives.
20V Stainless Steel
A go-to option for premium knives. Made in the USA by Crucible Industries, this powder-metal alloy offers high edge retention and excellent stainless properties.
Frame Lock
Developed by Chris Reeve, it functions like a liner lock but the lock is comprised of one of the handle scales. It's an extremely strong and easy to manipulate lock.

Pros: Ease of Opening, Handle Material, Pocket Clip, Blade Material, Overall Quality, Blade Sharpness
Cons: None
Amazing craftsmanship!
This thing is perfect all the way around. The ergos are amazing in hand and thr grinds centering and lockup are all perfect. The action was a little gritty at first but once i added a drop of blue lube to the detent ball it was opening and closing like greased lightning! It is a bit on the heavy side but if thats not an issue for you then most deff consider this knife. The flamed titanium is stellar im really happy i got this version. This is the first WE knife ive bought outside of civivis and im so glad i got one. Ill for sure be buying WE knives in the future!Ol
