Andre De Villiers Knives MINI APLHA-S Serrated Zombie FRAG
ADV Tactical
The Mini Alpha is the smaller second button lock model from ADV, although judging from the name, it is quite possible that Andre came up with this design before the Pitboss. Regardless, we must say that he absolutely nailed both the aesthetics and ergonomics in each and every way. Pushing in the rectangular button releases the blade, dropping it freely closed as fast as it flies open, and the inlay is just icing on the cake. The pocket clip and ergonomic handle shape 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 handling the Mini Alpha an absolute treat and the ergonomics are fantastic for small to medium-sized hands. It features a partial titanium backspacer with an integral lanyard hole, right-hand titanium pocket clip, and the inset pivot that put Andre on the map for us. This is another excellent ADV knife and, in our opinion, one of the best designs he has ever delivered.

ADV TACTICAL MINI ALPHA-S SERRATED ZOMBIE FRAG
Light weight, well balanced, smooth action open and closing, very fast action, very well made, it appears that it will last a long time. S35 VN steel is a very good knife steel. I can hardly wait to start using this knife where I work.
