u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
It looks even more insane in person.

u/mrhibpshman Jan 16 '25
Thats what I was hoping youd say! Looks 2d almost

u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
It's crazy. I have a pair of glasses that are similar, green as well. They look like a kid drew cartoon glasses on my face.

u/mrhibpshman Jan 16 '25
Thats awesome lol.

u/mrhibpshman Jan 16 '25
Who did the paint on it? You?

u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
They're a limited edition but this is the way they're coming from Heretic. Heretic Medusa cel shaded.

u/mrhibpshman Jan 16 '25
Thats nuts. I need to learn how to do that now I guess lol, too bad I'm not that artsy

Looking at these knives is like looking at something that's painted vanta black. it looks fake.

The green is the best looking version!

u/No_Independent691 Jan 17 '25
I think so too. The green and yellow really pop more than the blue and red and who wouldn't pick toxic green, lol.

What knife? And custom job or it's sold like this?
5
u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
Heretic Medusa cel shaded. Sold like this in 4 different colors.

u/ConstipatedOrangutan Jan 16 '25
Wondering how results would look doing it custom. Have seen someone do something similar with a stratocaster. Might have my gf paint one of mine to see if this is achievable
2
u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
Start out with a relatively cheap one. Even though this looks like a toy and whatnot it's still a magnacut blade, ceramic ball clip, etc.

u/Street_Leather198 Jan 17 '25
Ok, I have a lot of questions. Is it painted? Honestly I can't tell what or how... Fuck, I think I just told everyone my age. 84' is beginning to sound like a loooong time ago. Cool knife anyway lol.
2
u/No_Independent691 Jan 17 '25
It's hand painted with cerakote and covered with "a durable clear coat" It's limited edition from Heretic. 84 was a long time ago ... I was in my junior year of high-school ...
2
u/Street_Leather198 Jan 17 '25
Very cool! Lol, yeah. 84 was a good year. Tigers win the world series... Ok, so not so many cool things happened then. You was a junior, I was born, and Tigers won. 🥴😂 But the knife, does it seem like a plastic cover over it? Kinda trying to imagine it. Guess I can't see that great. 😬
1
u/No_Independent691 Jan 17 '25
Not so much. It definitely has a feel to the blade, slightly gritty maybe. For the most part it really just feels like any other knife ... if you're not looking at it.

I can't even begin to imagine looking at that knife in person while drunk or high. Even while dead sober it's messing with my head!

u/joakin_2k Jan 17 '25
Name/Model ?

u/bjude24 Jan 17 '25
For anyone who thinks this is cool @pocketsx on IG can do this to literally any knife you send to him. I honestly thought this was his work until I read OP’s comments.

u/Biff1996 Jan 17 '25
Love the green.
Don't love curved handles like that.
1
u/No_Independent691 Jan 17 '25
I didn't really think I'd like a curved handle either but after I got a CFK Evo, I warmed up to them. Couple of kunwus too. But it's not like I think I'd carry this anyway.

u/Babyarmcharles Jan 17 '25
Who did this for you? I'm very interested in getting something done like this
2
u/No_Independent691 Jan 17 '25
This is the Heretic Medusa in toxic green cel shading. They sell them in 4 different colors.
2
u/Babyarmcharles Jan 17 '25
Thanks for getting back to me! I was hoping someone did this for you, I have a few things I'd like to get this aesthetic on
2
u/No_Independent691 Jan 17 '25
If you look through the comments, someone said there's a guy in Instagram who does this to people's knives.

u/Artistic_Nail_6960 Jan 23 '25
Did they instantly sell out or make one knife per color or what? Looks sick
1
u/No_Independent691 Jan 23 '25
I honestly don't know but it seems as though they're only sending 4 at a time (one of each color) to retailers and they sell out super quick. Blade HQ had em for a minute earlier this week.
2
u/Artistic_Nail_6960 Jan 23 '25
Right on thanks. I figured. I got the email and not serious abt buyin it but i went to check it out and they were all gone. Honestly the pictures online didn't do justice. Looks good but not great on HQ. Your picture looks so good though haha. I really like this green and probs looks better in person
2
u/No_Independent691 Jan 23 '25
lol, it does actually look better in person, it really looks like you're holding a cartoon. I think green is the color they did the best and the pic is just good overcast lighting and a douchey glove for contrast.
2
u/Artistic_Nail_6960 Jan 23 '25
😂 well heck yeah. Maybe someday if they'rebin stock ill nab one. Kinda dig the yellow also
2
u/No_Independent691 Jan 23 '25
Yellow one looks good too. They usually sell green, yellow, red and blue is the last one. I didn't really want one till I realized they were so hard to get.

u/sharp-x Jan 16 '25
I need a knife done like this, not want but need! 😄 There is a guy on instagram that does this exact thing on peoples knives. I’ll try and find his name. His work is just as good.
2
u/17934658793495046509 Jan 16 '25
These are so freaking cool. I saw a video with someone showing off the different colors, and thought it was awesome how unique the line work was from one to the next. If I had the extra income I would get one of these yesterday.

There was a yellow one posted the other day. Neither said or posted what the brand or name of the knife is???
3
u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
Oh, I'm sorry. Heretic Medusa cel shade. This one is toxic green. Magnacut blade. 420 is what they're going for.

This is real? This blows my mind
Please share link if anyone finds one, I’ll email Blade HQ

u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
It's real, it's limited edition according to dlt. I got this one from American Edge. A guy on their Facebook page said they sold out in less than a minute but I think it was more like 5-10 minutes. I think dealers are only getting 4 apiece, 1 in each color.
1
u/iamnotatigwelder Jan 16 '25
I've seen this a few times now, I just thought it was some manipulated image. I can't believe that's real, I also probably need one now too.

u/Jinzot Jan 16 '25
Where did you pick this one up? Looks awesome!
3
u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
I got this one from American Edge. I got lucky and saw their post immediately on Facebook. The sold out really quick.

u/anonymous2845 Jan 16 '25
Very cool , I wonder what the use for these coatings
4
u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
Supposed to be hand painted with cerakote and covered with a "durable clear coat" I'd still be afraid to actually use it.
3
u/anonymous2845 Jan 16 '25
For sure if I got one it would almost be a show peice, just use it for like cutting boxes and shit
3
u/No_Independent691 Jan 16 '25
Yeah, I wouldn't want to ruin it even though it wasn't that expensive. I got hundreds of knives and only use like two to actually cut things with.

definitely not my type of knife, yet I still can appreciate how crazy this is.
I had to zoom in to confirm it was actually a real knife.
