This Skyraider 2 was part of the batch made in 2021, but only now launched as the Mokume cases were made in conjunction with the Artemis. Mokume-gane is a term that translates to 'wood grain metal' where layers of metal are forged and twisted to create its beautiful patterns. This Mokume is created by Vegas Forge, a renowned blacksmith for these layered metals. A total of 100 layers of bronze and nickel were forged and twisted together.
