Love my Waka!!! If you haven't sent Elias back the knife...YOU NEED to front flip it!!! It front flips like a Dream!!! My favorite deployment on the Waka and Shiru Besides middle finger of course!!! Also a thing to note is Sharknivco's spa service is top notch!!! Thanks for the vid Dirk!! #213 👊🏻
I really like this knife and been tempted many times but proprietary hardware and extremely inflated pricing always stops me. If i ever come across a user at a more reasonable price id definitely get one. For the people that like this knife id highly recommend a Cody Eutsler Duk over this for a more reasonable price, better attention to detail, and amazing action.
Just my experience. Very underwhelming. Got a Holey Waka on a drop from the guy (name escapes me) who handles his drops on FB. It came with lock stick, no COA, and all the edges were a bit rough will milling marks and a very point (sharp) pocket clip. I reached out for a COA and never got one. I sold the knife for a loss. Cool designs etc, but spend your money elsewhere. Positives: Cool design, blade was nice, and it flicked easily, centered and overall that part of the experience was like butter. Should be an $800 table knife in PJ.....$999 for Holey Just one person's .02
Sorry that was your experience! I've handled a lot of Wakas and never found one with lockstick or being rough milled and Ed and Mariela don't outsource their drops. So I wonder where you got it from, and they always come with a COA.
@@elias_nichols His name is Andy Leonard. And yes, he handles their drops for the Holy version (maybe others too - not sure). The COA was missing b/c of simple human mistake ( so no big deal). But after reaching out many times over the course of months, I could never get one and eventually never heard back. I dropped it altogether and sold the knife.
I am the keeper of coin 204 and beautiful barked waka that gets absolutely used and loved!

Overpriced, overrated.
