Darriel K Caston of d.caston.design Has taken to Kickstarter to launch his very unique Kadima EDC Blade and Rocket Retro Pencil, with the aim of raising $12,000 to take the knife and pen set into production.
Watch the video below to learn more about the design of the two basic tools every “scholar/warrior” should carry. Pledges start from $150 for the retro pencil or $300 for the basic knife which includes titanium handles with raw or blasted tumbled handles.
$300 provides a saving of the $425 retail price and you can add in a Retro Pencil for $125 offering another saving off the $175 retail price. If the Kickstarter campaign a successful shipping is expected to take place during February 2018.
I design because I must – to create functional art is a core part of me – it doesn’t just open something inside of me but it also lets me see the world with a fresh perspective with every creation – I see inspiration in nature – in high tech – in the imagination of good Sci Fi and in traditional art. –> D Rocket Design – Darriel Caston
The Kadima v2 is functional evolution of the Kadima Flipper. We have made a better EDC pocket knife out of an already great knife. We have improved our methods and processes to create a knife with better tolerances as well as creating a smother flipping mechanism and lock-up.
The Retro-Pencil is a joy to use and carry. It is all titanium construction with that funky Retro Sci Fi look. Something that could be in any black and white vintage Sci Fi movie. It is a simple mechanism with the machining quality that you expect from me.
