The VECP, which stands for Value Engineering Change Proposal, is a concept focused on refining and simplifying a product while maintaining its effectiveness and readiness for its intended purpose. The VECP project by George Knives aimed to adapt the design of the Les George Customs Rockeye folding knife into a more accessible, yet equally functional version. This initiative resulted in a high-quality, durable folding knife that mirrors the craftsmanship and attention to detail found in Les George's custom-made knives. The primary distinction lies in the VECP blades being machine ground, as opposed to the hand-ground technique used for the custom versions, ensuring a more cost-effective yet equally reliable product.
