Gen-2EL.....you want a BIG flipper? :)

All of those parts have come in handy! There's the first one out of this batch..... I'm calling it the "Gen-2EL". It's a BIG flipper, with a 4" blade of CPM154, a closed length of 5", and an open length of
8 3/4". It has a bearing system pivot, with titanium screws and stand-offs. It's finished out with a combination of Gun-Kote, texturing, and multi-color anodizing.

I like that a lot. The textured finish on the handle is wonderful.

That's great looking.

I really liked the black "cracked" finish Gen-2 flipper you had up a while back.

Reminds me that I need to get in touch and see about getting one myself.

Nice job Ed, tell the doc you want another false alarm or two to come up with more neat stuff. Really interesting effect with the combo of finishes.

Go get 'em tomorrow, Craig

Excellent fit and finish as always Ed , I love the design and color many times we need a short break to help us think about just why we enjoy Life and the things we love most .

Thumbs up spectacular!

I love it, Ed! I think this is my favorite to date. That is going to sell easily! Hope I can see it soon, in person .
