The Blade HQ x StrapHabit Dessert Warrior Watch strap is constructed from durable nylon in a military-style dual-pass-through design. The official Dessert Warrior pattern is printed on the nylon. You'll find the Blade HQ logo laser-engraved on the buckle, and StrapHabit on one of the keepers. All of the hardware is PVD-coated in blue, inspired by the blue blades on the knives.
If you own the AWWC or Standard H collaboration straps, you'll find these familiar.
So what are these things?
Recently, photos of knives with a rainbow sprinkle pattern and blue blades started popping up on my social media feeds. The pink frosting pattern printed on a utilitarian tool was such a fun juxtaposition that I wanted to know more! The idea originated at popular knife seller Blade HQ, which sold a knife called the "Desert Warrior." People loved them, but autocorrect took over, and Blade HQ started receiving inquiries for the Dessert Warrior. The brand loves to have fun and decided to run with the funny error. It turned out to be even more popular than the original knives, with the pink knives often selling out upon release.
As far as StrapHabit's involvement, it pays to have friends, as it was a collaborative effort across several channels. Random Rob first suggested the idea, which I thought was super fun! Rather than create a sprinkle pattern strap, I wanted to collaborate with the originators. I reached out to a long-time friend of StrapHabit, Levon of the Knife Nuts Podcast. He helped bridge the connection with Blade HQ, and the rest was history!
