Re: Texas Knife Laws
I don't see anything state-wide that disallows a balisong. Local ordinances are in effect as the preemption law failed to pass so you will still have to be aware of those. The big ones to watch out for is the ban on locking blades in San Antonio and the 3-inch maximum blade length in Corpus Christi....

Re: Spyderco Tomahawk?
Well, looks like the Tactical one is coming out first... the Szabohawk. I'm very intrigued by this one and am wondering about the utility of the faceted/bearded cutting edge and whether it would be good for EDC cutting/chopping. Being as this has been in the works almost forever and a day, I think ...

Re: Janisong not available in US?
Thanks for clearing that up with us, Mr. Glesser. I had a pretty hard time imagining such a great design simply falling through the cracks forever due to import shenanigans.

Re: Janisong not available in US?
Benchmade sells US-made balisongs all the time. Make it here in the States and it's a non-issue. In fact, Texas just lifted the ban on switchblades so Spyderco would probably have a good market for a balisong-type knife you can play with without risking your digits quite so much.

Re: Ok, what did you see in the new catalogue that you need?
The Reverse and Ronin 2 for me. Honestly a bit leery of the 2mm blade thickness on the Ronin 2 despite it being a high-speed/low-drag steel. Quite certain it cuts like a demon, though, being so thin. I'm also not really understanding why Spyderco would want to have to buy separate orders of the CTS ...

Reverse Fixed blade: I’m not sure if I got the name right, but there was a fixed blade in the case sporting a 3.5” (aprox) wharncliff/ hawkbill hybrid blade identical to the P’kal folder but slightly longer. It’s a joint collaboration between Southnarc and Mike Janich, and what makes this blade so ...

I was pretty much gobsmacked by the price of the Enuffs. $25 *higher* than a similar semi-custom in S35VN for a VG10 *production* knife? Now, I fully realize that street price will be lower, but that's still mighty steep there. Guess Japan is worse off for costs than I thought post-tsunami. A bit bu...

Not surprised by the Puukko at all. Gorgeous knife. It has the hole which turned a whole bunch of people off, the steel was a bit 'iffy' due to to it's high machining costs and relative difficulty in sharpening except at home, and the cost was simply out of many folks price ranges for a Puukko-type ...
