Walt's CUSTOM 23cm Picklock “Side-Lock” 2026 Elite Series. Tortoise Shell features a warm, translucent amber and golden-brown base interspersed with darker, irregular patches of deep brown with a slightly glossy-polished finish enhancing its warmth and elegance. Kirinite is a versatile, innovative, and durable acrylic material that combines a smooth appearance with a solid grip even at the highest polish. Accented by Kirinite tortoise shell scales with ivory and mother of pearl accents, matching release button, tribal vine file work, and embellished liners. This is a unique piece.
“Side-Lock” Elite Series features our 440C Half grind blade, solid nickel-silver bolsters, and 1.2 mm thick brass liners. Designed with a pin-less construction offering a sleek, uninterrupted profile. Unlike traditional designs, the scales are screwed on, allowing for easy maintenance. A side-lock is a mechanism where the blade is secured by an internal locking bar that’s released from the side of the handle. This allows for smooth, one-handed operation while delivering a firm, reliable lock-up you can both feel and hear. It deploys faster than ever with a solid lock-up you can both hear and feel, thanks to the new, STRONGER and RUST RESISTANT 5mm back spring.
The blade features familiar LATAMA over Italy and Walt's stylized cat tang stamp, complemented by a Polish Clean lock tab, creates a bold contrast on this unique piece, a must-have for collectors.
