The RC was a model based on being the opposite of the SMF. The SMF is lightweight with a lot of straight lines, the RC is overbuilt and made up of all curves. The result is a full-sized, overbuilt, and integral bolsterlock Strider that feels like a folding machete in hand. The blade on this one-off build is in Mick's sole authorship damascus and blued to a deep brown, before being blasted. It has a unique Trisula Nightmare Grind blade. The triangular dual thumbstuds with the glowing vial inlay are normally exclusive to the to the TAD collab version. Custom flamed frame.
