ADV Tactical Pitboss 2 | GIANT button lock TACTICAL knife!!!

The Pitboss 2 is a redesign of the integral Ronin model but with a button lock instead of a frame lock. This is the first button lock model from ADV and we must say that he absolutely nailed it with this one. Pushing in the large rectangular button releases the blade, dropping it freely closed as fast as it flies open. The pocket clip and large handle allow you to easily grip the knife with your fingers clear from the path of the blade so you're never in any danger. It makes fondling the Pitboss an absolute treat and the ergonomics are fantastic for medium to large-sized hands. It features a partial titanium backspacer with an integral lanyard hole, right-hand titanium pocket clip, and secondary safety that locks the blade both open and closed. This is a knife that is built and priced for a deployment and one of the best values Andre has ever delivered.

Andre is a great guy. He gave me a butcher at Blade show one year because I helped him out with a few questions.

Awesome knife, I have an adv alpha and love it.

[@WhatsthePOINT_EDC]

The serrations look sick and I’m not too much of a serration guy. Sweet knife man.

[@RookCAF]

[@voodoo7008]

A folding survival knife. It’s a hoss.

[@edc4fun]

What a beast! Agree on the aesthetic stuff, so I guess it’s just not my style

[@satudave]

I usually hate serrations but those actually enhance the look. Are those Veff serrations? Badass ADV bro.

[@edged_mindset]

they seem very similar to veff for sure

[@kraakvmaar1505]

A bigger fuller and flipper tab would be my preference. I would prefer a stonewash for the whole knife.
Generally talking design language it sounds like you suggest he should make a boring looking mainstream knife like everyone else. Im not sure if this is what the knife world needs. Another knife that looks the sanme like 20000 other knives. What would this be good for.

Really like that one. Those teeth are nasty!!
