im sure you have sold this knife by know. but if you ever want to keep a copper knife. You can take the scales off and spray them down with clear coat. You can find at any auto store. The scales look and feel the same and no smell or color change.
Man yeah, that with micarta, G10, CF, or hell, just do it just like the Bareknuckle and make it an aluminum frame with 14C28N and Kershaw would have a bestseller. Idk why they wouldn’t. Hopefully they’ll do something like that at some point and if they do I’ll be all over it for sure. Thanks for the video LTK. Stay safe.
Agreed. Sandvik 14, Micarta or even N690, Micarta and I'd jump on it. Not a dig or jab at D2 at all but... I like sandvik and 690 as well and I can get $25 D2 blades all day. I have the (SMKW) copper mini Archaeo and the bronze Tradition. The Tradition is a beast of a hunk of lead. Haven't weighed it but it's heavy. @ $50 I STLL like it though.
The seam down the middle of the backspacer made me think molded plastic. All your observations were spot on. I'd add that the constant trips to well to get another bucket of ZT0777 has got to stop.
Totally agree with everything you said against this knife, LTK! The Natrix overall is another Kershaw FAIL, especially the copper versions! If they made the entire Natrix series the same way they made the Barrknuckle models, I’d buy all of em! All the recommendations you made about CF or G10 scales with either 14C28N or even 20CV are SPOT ON! The Bareknuckle models are FAR SUPERIOR to all Natrix models! Thanks as always for a complete and honest review! 👍🏻
I'm like you LTK, if it had G10, carbon fiber or micarta (ooh yeah, micarta) scales and different blade steel (and for me, a 1/2"shorter blade) I'd be really digging it. As it is, it's not my cuppa tea. A half pound pocketknife that makes your hands stink like pennies?!?! No thanks.
Not only Kershaw, but ZT has also fallen by the wayside for me and friends who used to think they were must-haves as a collector. Haha, I have a Smoky Mtn Brass (1) pound Proponent, a great paper weight, sharp as hell too.

Sweet! I’ll do it. I like mine. Don’t mind the wieght.
Just a heads up guys! Smoky mountain knives has the copper / bronze / brass artisan cutlery knives at a steep discount right now! $35-$40 for D2

Finally someone mentions the damn smell of copper. Not for me either hahaha
Micarta & M390 I'd might buy one
One pro to the copper handle is that copper is antiviral antimicrobial. Yes it kills the Corona virus too. The smell is kinda a downside though.
Now that's a deep carry!
Agreed. Sandvik 14, Micarta or even N690, Micarta and I'd jump on it.

Hey Lee ,
I have the little one which looks cool but just is not a good flipper.
Kershaw want Snobs into buying Bearnuckle and ZT 0777
Dam nice looking knife
Please get Kershaws D2 tested!

Had the mini- but wasnt impressed by the action.
