Demko AD20S Group Knife
This is the limited edition Demko Knives Dynamics Facebook Group Knife from Demko, as you can tell from the laser etched logo on the show side of the blade. It is an AD20S (slim profile) with a Magnacut steel. It originally shipped with a set of black G10 scales but they were replaced with a set of Original Goat Aluminum MM2 pattern scales.
The Blade measures in at 3.75″ and is made from a slab of CPM Magnacut steel. The tip profile has been dubbed as the Dynamic Drop Point and so far has been exclusive to the Group Knife. The blade is finished off with Demko’s beautiful stone wash for a tough as nails look!
You won’t find a frame lock or axis lock on this knife…it is built with Andrew Demko’s revolutionary Shark Lock which provides maximum strength along with ease of use! The “Shark Fin” on the top of the knife actuates a locking bar that allows the blade to open and close. It is truly ambidextrous and naturally tends to keep your fingers out of the path of the razor sharp blade for extra user safety!
The AD20S is usually equipped with stainless steel standoffs but this version is fitted with an Original Goat raw aluminum back spacer for a tight, finished look. The stainless pocket clip is a standard Demko spoon style clip that is also ambidextrous making this knife a joy to use for right handed people as well as left handed folks!
Manipulating the Shark Lock is natural and intuitive. You can flick the blade open and closed with the lock tab or take advantage of the thumb studs or deployment cutout. No matter how you open the knife, it definitely fun and fidgety to open and close! The solid, bank vault lock up and snappy acoustics do not disappoint either!
Coming in slightly thinner than the full sized Demko AD20, the 20S is right at home in your daily carry rotation but it also is not afraid to do the work of a hard use knife! You get the best of both worlds with the AD20S!
