Are there any Watu fans out there ?

What about a XL version?!?!? Watu Size Increase, or WATUSI for short.

There’s the Chokwe that is larger then the Watu. I’d love a 5 or even 6 inch blade version with a back lock.

Back lock is fine, brown micarta also would fit if not some African wood.

Watu is in my rotation.
I like the simple knife shape, the thin blade, and of course the 20CV is great.

It should look like this right out the box.

Geeeez, that photo looks awfully familiar

Those scales were very nice, Trifect Customs I believe is where I got those from. I ended up selling it to a member here though, I had a few "other" brands that took its place as my fancy knives. The Watu is one heck of slicer, very unique knife, but just didn't meet my needs after a while.

I’m not a modder, but if I was, my Watu would look like this to be as fantastic a looker as it is a slicer.

This particular example is pretty darn special! Love the Watu, even the CF scales.

It’s a great knife for all the reasons described, but gets almost no pocket time because I prefer to edc something I’m not afraid to abuse a little bit (or hand to a coworker who’s not a knife person and is almost guaranteed to mistreat it).

There are a lot of knives that I’d be reasonably concerned about if I asked them to do something they’re not meant to do, but I’d be terrified for my Watu. It’s a fantastic gentleman’s carry, though.

I love mine. As an office dweller, it is my EDC pretty much all weekdays. Zero complaints. Weekends I go a little heavier, PM2, Shaman, or ZT 0562.
