The Sustain was my favorite new fixed blade design at this year’s Amsterdam Meet. It was a nice large tactical type blade that was also very thin and light. I really liked the ergos, and even though my suburb environment doesn’t provide a clear ‘practical need’ for this design for EDC, I’m still going to get one. I’m sure I’ll find something cool or useful to do with it!

I am very much interested in the Stuart Ackerman Sustain and would like to know how I can purchase one. Is there a forum or an alert lust that I can subscribe to?
