We've thought about it, but cost becomes a hurdle. the Urban was disco'd because sales were slow which we believe was because of the high cost. An H1 version would cost even more. sal Sal - would it be possible to use the FRN UKPK as a base model and replace the metal-work with H1 components? Would...

For just a simple EDC knife that you could use for cutting twine; opening packets and other light tasks I'd go for the Squeak or Pingo. They are cheap and highly functional knives so they will do a lot of tasks with ease and if you lost them then it wouldn't hurt as much as a Ti UKPK ;) I carry my F...

Really, without the facts we can't judge because you can spin that story in many ways. He could be a grade-A student who had some cough syrup in his bag and his grandfather's old whittler in his pocket. Or he could be a kid who is going off the rails caught dealing a precursor to methamphetamine and...

I think there are a few reasons why Sal doesn't want sales on the forum: 1. Not competing with your supply-chain - the same reason that the Factory Outlet doesn't under-cut the price of the retailers. Manufacturers spend a fortune setting up good supply-chain business relationships and it is busines...

Now, that's a photo I'd like to be able to take :D

Nice photos guys - so that'll be *another* Spydie on my wish list!!

Yay - glad I checked the forum today - have a really good one Paul! :)

Thanks for the review - that's one lovely knife :)

Looks a great city-friendly knife - can't wait to get my hands on one :)

Sounds great - I'd get one :)

It's have to be ZDP-189 or VG-10 ... or something similar to those for me :) A light folder like the Caly Jr deserves to be razor sharp and require the minimum of resharpening.

Looks lovely ... in a slippie format it would be a great successor to the Bob-T slipit :) I have the Bob-T and the one thing I don't like about it is the concave grind and the shape - the Air is spot on - Wharnie and full-flat :D

The fact that Buzz Aldrin was approached by a man asking him to swear on the Holy Bible that he had been to the moon and he very hatefully declined. There's just a lot of things about the moon missions that just don't add up. I kinda get Buzz's attitude though ... I mean, if you had spent your care...

I put the FRN UKPK in the right rear jeans pocket - the least conspicuous and most comfortable place. Whenever I have tried front pockets the knife either digs in or lifts up/out and becomes unclipped when sitting down. Cargo pant pockets just dump everything out as soon as I sit in the car or any l...

+1 ... what he said :D

I hear you, but I always seem to be holding the thing I want to cut in my other and. I could put it down but one handed just makes everything easier. It isn't fast, flashy or threatening in any way, just convenient. Absolutely agree ... all other things being equal I would choose a knife capable of...

What makes a locking knife so much more dangerous in the eyes of lawmakers anyway? The reasoning of the Court [the Crown Court of appeal, Harris v. DPP (1992)] was that, when the blade is locked open, a lock renders a knife effectively the same as a fixed blade and therefore a more effective stabbi...

Yeah, smooth/fast OHO with such a small knife is a bit ambitious I think - like the Kiwi. I'd be happy for it to be two-hand-open and that might be more acceptable in cities around the world. It just seems to be a model of knife that would never be used point first, has a great finger choil and woul...

I love the look and the concept ... the only thing that stopped me getting one here in the UK is the fact that it locks. Such a small knife shouts out to be EDC'd and just dropped into your trouser pocket every day, but that'd get folks into trouble over here. If a SLIPIT version could be run off th...

What it must be like, to have the pick of the entire catalogue ... I can only dream :D

Reported - a clear Chinese fake.
