WE Knife 912D Synergy2 Marble Blue Tanto pocket knife, Jim O’Young design

The WE Knife Synergy2 is a stunning knife with a remarkable story. To understand how the Synergy2 first saw the light of day we need to go back in time. In 1999 Jim O'Young designed the first version of the Synergy with the brand SpeedTech. The concept for this design is the result of a challenge Jim O'Young had presented to himself. The challenge was to design a 3D object with intriguing curves in SolidWorks, a design program which, back in the day, didn't have as much 3D options as modern programs have today. At the same time it was a way for O'Young to get to know the program better and test its limits.
