Microtech & Vallotton Chameleon D/A Double Action Folding Automatic Knife (4/96) – #460

A true collector's gem, this Microtech & Vallotton Chameleon D/A is a rare and highly sought-after piece from April 1996, numbered #460. This collaboration blends Vallotton’s masterful craftsmanship with Microtech’s precision engineering, creating an exceptional double-action folding automatic knife that stands the test of time.

The AEB-L bead-blasted blade features the Vallotton logo on the reverse side and opens automatically via a discreet release button located beneath the tip-up titanium pocket clip. The handle is crafted from black aluminum with rubber inlays, providing a secure grip, while bead-blasted titanium liners enhance durability.

This knife includes the original box and papers and remains in near-mint condition, having been stored safely since its purchase from Microtech. Minor scuffs are present, with a faint mark on the grind area and a light scuff on the blade near the Vallotton logo. The leaf spring exhibits slight rust, which is expected from a 30-year-old component. Despite its age, the action is fully functional, making this a remarkable collector's find.
