Walter History

Walter began around 2010 with multiple prototypes designed. The final Walter was released in May 2013, they were $120. Using the Wayback Machine, it appears there were 7 Walter designs prior to the final Walter.

Chris from CLYW helped with the CAD work, finance and orchestration of the project. One drop did the machining. Sonny from Anti-yo had them blasted and hard coated.

There were100 Walters sold, numbered 00-99 in a black Type III Hardcoat, and a handful of Walters in Blue, Red, Gray and several half swap combinations.
