It cannot peel, wear smooth, or come loose, and it breaks up a blacked out handle without adding color to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWalter Brend\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWalter Brend spent decades building fighters and hard use knives by hand, and the grind and profile work is what people buy a Brend for. Pro-Tech putting that design on an automatic chassis is how most people will ever get to carry one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Mosaic Pin Button\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mosaic pin is built by bundling rod and wire into a pattern and then slicing it, so every button face comes off the same billet and none of them land identical.
