Clip Point variant chosen (Shark Foot is 3 in / 7.5 in). Blade thickness 3.2 mm converted to 0.126 in. The maker page rendered both variants as sold out on 2026-10-14 while the shop's product feed marked both available; the SMKW listing (https://smkw.com/demko-ad20-5-20cv-clip-point-g10-black/) showed it in stock at $265 and states opening 'via the thumb hole or thumb stud'. Demko also sells the AD20.5 in 3V and MagnaCut, so the steel is in the SKU name.
