Caelum Blade Designs Ari Prototype - Small Details Review - Titanium Carbon Fiber Bolster Lock Knife

Today we have the pleasure of checking out the prototype of a new knife from a brand new knife brand: the Ari by Caelum Blade Designs. I know the market can feel a bit flooded with micro-brands from first-time designers and overseas OEMs, but the Ari is one of those rare designs that cuts through that noise. This is an incredible design that you really ought to pay attention to, *especially* if you like slightly bigger knives! I believe the pre-order will be in mid-September, but sign up for the mailing list to make sure you don't miss it! You can find find Caelum Blade Designs at...
