The Quest for New Colorways
The Psyop is back, and it is now available in two new colorways: deep steel blue and misty dark purple.
To achieve these two new colors, we compared various color palettes and anodizing color charts, experimented with different voltages and anodizing durations, and utilized a range of electroplating solutions to test consistencies. After hundreds of test runs, we finally achieved the results we desired; both colorways look amazing and showcase rich, everchanging hues under different lighting angles.
During the manufacturing process, we meticulously prepared each handle part. From desmutting and de-oxidizing the thin titanium layer to degreasing any residues with ultrasonic cleaning machines, and from polishing all surfaces of each part to carefully replicating the optimal electro-anodizing conditions, every step was executed with great care and our deep passion for knives.
Simple yet Sophisticated Style
Elegant, unique, and ultra-functional, the Vosteed Psyop strikes a great balance between its sleek minimalistic aesthetics and its high functionality.
True to Geoff's design concept, Psyop is filled with surprising small details: the show side pivot and collar are flushed with the Titanium handle; the 3D milled Titanium pocket clip is fixed onto the handle with hidden screw sets.
This backspacer also has a dedicated lanyard attachment hole. Furthermore, to enhance comfort, the inside of the Titanium handles is CNC milled for weight relief.
Workhorse for the Tasks
Milled from a 0.157”(4mm) thick Elmax steel blank, the blade of Psyop has excellent wear resistance, good corrosion resistance, and high dimensional stability. The 0.137” (3.5mm) thick (finished) Elmax blade has both a generously ground belly for effortless slicing and a pointed tip for accurate piercing. Whether you're slicing through packages, performing detailed tasks, or tackling outdoor activities, the Psyop is up to the challenge.
Intuitive and Fun Action
The Psyop features a button-operated Top-liner lock, which combines intuitive operation, high sturdiness, as well as fun fidget experiences.
The oval-shaped Titanium button is easy to access and fits the overall knife style seamlessly. Equipped with a ceramic ball-bearing system, the Psyop can be smoothly deployed with both a front flipper and thumbhole.
Especially, the height and angle of the front flipper are precisely engineered for ultimate thumb swipe open action. Once the knife is deployed, the front flipper will merge with the continuation line of the handle to form an eye-pleasing sleek profile.
