Things are different here in Denmark, the knifelaws, and the ensuing penalties stem from the politicians trying to look as if they act to protect the public, they get tighter and tighter every time someone uses a knife for a criminal purpose as if this deters anyone, but a criminal who is willing to ...

Welcome Grejs76, good to see that i am not alone, so far we have three danes in this thread (as far as i know).

The DK penknife is a great and "rare" design, we do not have many knives available too us with good steel and craftsmanship, and i guess thats why we would go to all this trouble getting ...

My interpretation of a DK model.

Took my liberty at photoshop, and i dont think the result is all that bad, offcourse it does not look like a standard Spyderco, and i would understand if Sal didnt think it followed their established design.

But what does the man himself think about this franken-knife?

That is "Vor frue kirke" (Church of our lady) in Kalundborg, a city in the north west of Seeland, the biggest island in Denmark. I have worked there back in my scaffolding days. Funny to see it in this forum ;-)

This thread has really taken off, and it seem that some really competent people have sprung in to action, and we even have a "local" (ngraudal) who might have some inside strings to pull, so i am feeling optimistic, but as dbcad mentioned, this is neither the time or place for politics, so i would ...

There is a more radical solution, one that worked for my Mother's parents, they immigrated to the US. :)

I have been thinking the same thing ;-) my boss is living there now, he sent me a picture to show off his collection, and i might just have spotted a Starlingear Strider amongst his ...

The danish knife laws are not influenced by much logic, they have been changed in order to respond to the criminal use of knives, disregarding the fact that the vast majority of users are using their knives as a tool and not as a weapon. The funny thing is that i can go in to a hardware store and ...

Welcome Gyssedk, enjoy it here, lots of good folks.

The C94GDK looks a lot like the Urban. Just measured the Blade length on mine and it came in at 2-1/2". A plug for the Spyderhole might take some custom work though. I don't know if Soyderco has contemplated anything like that.

In the meantime ...

A plea to Mr. Glesser.

Hello there, i am a new user from denmark. Denmark is a cold place in northern Europe, and on top of high taxes on everything that is fun or usefull, we also have one of the strictest knifelaws in the world.

In short:
One-hand opening knives, balisongs and autos: No-Go
Locking folder, regardless af ...
