I love to play cards. I appreciate a good deck, the feel, the glide and the look. These are very nice decks. They are designed by me and are truly Emerson originals. They are 300 GSM stock laminated with a linen finish built to the highest specs as premium casino cards.

They are as good as the best playing cards on the market.

We have both deluxe boxed set decks in clear plastic gift boxes and decks in cardboard window tuck boxes.


And we have one deck, a very special deck that contains a very special card, “The Golden Ace”. This card is a Titanium Ace of Spades that is polished and anodized to a very special Gold color. In the spirit of Willie Wonka, the lucky person who buys the deck that has the Golden Ace wins an Emerson Grand Prize. The grand prize will be a hand-ground prototype full checkered CQC-45 Knife and a whole bunch of Emerson Swag and goodies that we'll be adding to as we go along. The prototype knife alone is worth $1,000.00.

Someone out there is going to be a very lucky card player and is going to take home a very sweet pot.

If you are the one to get the deck with the Golden Ace, just get us a picture of you, the ace and the special code on the back of the card and all the prizes will be yours.

Who will get the golden Ace? Who will it be?

Good Luck,

Ernest R. Emerson

Found the following information on this site...http://www.10-8performance.com/index.html

Emerson M-Wave...A custom collaboration between Ernest Emerson and Hilton Yam.


A design collaboration with Ernest Emerson, legendary knifemaker, this knife was conceived to meet the grueling demands of law enforcement and military service use. The optional serrated blade provides an aggressive edge for cutting tough materials such as rope, flex cuffs, webbing, seat belts, and evidence packaging while maximizing service life between sharpenings. A section of plain edge toward the tip allows the knife to accomplish finer cutting tasks. The jumbo Wave (tm) makes for extremely fast and positive opening as well as providing a solid thumb stop during vigorous cutting. Dual lanyard loop holes extend the versatility of this rugged folder. Compact and easy to carry, this knife can accompany the user on any mission in any conditions.

Specifications:
•Blade Length: 3.50"
•Overall Length: 8.25"
•Blade Thickness: .13"
•Blade Material: 154CM
•Lock Type: Liner Lock
•Weight: 4.6 oz.

These knives are a limited production item. They are currently working on a run for availability in mid-fall.
(3) Limited runs...keep an eye out guys...

This has been available since July 2009...

Description
BRADAUTOCOMMBT: Auto Commander
Emerson Knives

No compromises. That was the single principle we started with. The Auto Commander is the singular result. A joint project between Emerson Knives, Kershaw Knives, and designers Grant & Gavin Hawk, the Auto Commander is built with extreme precision from top-of-the-line materials. An S30V stainless blade - the current state-of-the-art steel for all around performance. Non-reflective matte-black Tungsten DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating. The famous Commander curved blade shape. And automatic operation.

But with automatic operation comes the need for security. The Auto Commander delivers with the CrossFire Auto Lock, designed by Grant & Gavin Hawk. Toss it on a table, snag it on a seatbelt, mandhandle it on a duty belt - there's no chance the blade will accidentally deploy. Why? Because the unique CrossFire lock require two motions to work. First slide the lock toward the knife's spine, then pull down toward the butt. Only then will the blade deploy with a satisfying click into position. Even with gloves. it's fast and easy to deploy. And when the blade is open, the CrossFire serves as a secondary lock.

This is a limited run of an exceptional knife. Get yours now.

Specifications
•Steel: S30V - Tungsten DLC coated
•Handle: 6061-T6 aluminum / anodized - with G10 overlays
•Lock: G&G Hawk CrossFire Mechanism
•Blade: 3.75"
•Overall Length: 9.00"
•Proudly Made in the USA
