Just got mine in today. Figured there would be some fresh vids out. Mine actually came from the recent drop on blade forums. Blade is magnacut at 62.7 HRC. Real nice blade.

@andyprice4696 How are you liking yours, is this your first Carothers? I saw that drop mentioned but then spaced it, how fast did it sell out?

[@andyprice4696]

@@EDChero in my opinion it’s one of the top semi-custom fixed blades you can buy from a USA maker. Yes it is my first Carothers. I’ve tried numerous times in the drops and this time I was #40 in a 40 spot drop. Had my comment placed in 3 seconds. Crazy to see 40 knives gone in 3 seconds. Well worth the price they are asking. Now I need to get one in the delta 3V as well.

Nice video. I have the same model , but with the natural micarta. I believe yours is a newer iteration. Mine has the Delta 3V logo and the Carothers branding on the side of the blade. It’s a no frills hard use tool. A great knife!

[@EDChero]

I'm a little jealous I'm not gonna lie, I like that logo on the side 🏆

@@EDChero Hehe! And I like it on the spine, like yours 😛

[@ImageLoX]

It was our little corner of the universe and now it sells out instantly haha. Nathan is the true evil genius. Enjoy it.

[@EDChero]

@ImageLoX It is truly functional art, love it so far!

[@LT4me]

Can you spark a flint with this knife?

[@EDChero]

@@LT4me Definitely, I just tested it for you and it works just fine. There's a very small chamfer running down the edge of the spine but it ends about 1.5 inches from the tip and its a 90 degree edge down there so it will strike a ferro rod no problem.

@@EDChero I just saw your comment and had to check mine. Sure enough you are correct. I mistakenly though the whole spine was chamfered, which was the only thing I didn't like about the knife. Now I'm super happy. Mine has the IPC (international paper micarta) scales and I just got it last week.
