Designer Wayne Walter of "Wayne's Sharp World" says of his new design, "Introducing the Vosteed Thornton. This knife pays homage to my grandfather, Wayne Thornton Walter, along with my love for aviation and travel. The design inspiration comes from a Boeing 737. In addition, my grandfather was a mechanical squad leader for aircraft in the Solomon and Philippine Islands during World War II. The Thornton was designed with love, gratitude and a wanderlust spirit in hopes that this knife will make a great companion for your next adventure or EDC task"
Billed as a “simple and low-key knife,” the Thornton features a versatile and reliable 8.07cm (3.18”) 14C28N sheepsfoot blade, known for its excellent balance of corrosion resistance, hardness, and edge performance. It ensures that the knife can handle a variety of tasks with ease, from everyday cutting to more demanding outdoor activities.
The Thornton boasts a beefy and ergonomic handle made from micarta that offers a secure and comfortable grip for a variety of tasks.
Equipped with ceramic ball bearing system and Trek Lock mechanism, the Thornton can be easily and smoothly opened. The button is intentionally set to be recessed, reducing the chance of accidental closure.
