WE Knives - WE18046 - Synergy 2V2

Jim O’Young Design.

In 1999, after a 20 year career as a Mechanical Design Engineer in the Silicon Valley electronics industry, Jim O’Young retired from the corporate world to pursue his passions: competition pistol shooting at the highest level and partnering with his friends & shooting sponsors to design, manufacture & market innovative products for the firearms & cutlery industries.
 
Jim levered his knowledge & experience to design & engineer the SpeedTech Synergy using SolidWorks, a state of the art, 3-dimensional, solid modeling CAD software tool. It was the very first knife created using this technology and featured several design elements never seen before in a production folding knife: an ergonomic, fully 3-D digitally sculpt surface handle machined from a single, solid billet of material, a captive floating bearing system and a button lock with increased engagement geometry. The Synergy was truly way ahead of its time and was awarded the Most Innovative American Design at the 1999 BLADE Show by its industry peers.
 
On the 20th anniversary of the original Synergy design, Jim is proud to partner with WE Knife to continue the legacy and introduce an updated & re-engineered Synergy2 to a new generation of cutlery enthusiasts.

Flipper action, ceramic bearings, steel lock insert.

The Synergy 2v2 differs from the Synergy 2 mostly in the blade shape - the Synergy 2v2 has a drop point blade. New handle finishes are available as well such as the tiger stripe model.

      Perfect

      The Synergy 2V2 is how an integral pocket knife should be: elegant and organic design language, an ergonomic and useful tool, and expertly built.

      I have a Synergy 2 and a Synergy 2V2, and I hope there will be more knives in this series.

      Blade: stylish, expertly ground, and excellent cutting geometry.

      Handle: it is as if the handle was sculpted by hand to perfectly fit my medium sized hands.

      Action: a small, very well shaped flipper that rockets the blade out with a satisfying thwack.

      Pocket clip: comfortable, effective, and suits the design language of the knife.

      Fit and finish: perfect.

      Final thoughts: if you want to be a knife designer or maker, the Synergy 2V2 is where you should be Aiming to get. If you can afford a Synergy 2V2 you won’t be disappointed.
