Don't forget caged ball lock LOL :p But seriously though a small gent's knife needs the care and attention that differs from the criteria that tactical knives require. I still vote for Green Kauri !!! Go for this one Sal !!! And Paul... you really need some of this for a Kiwi. I'm thinking of gettin...

Good job Cam !

I wish I lived closer to the SFO. I might have to get you to do some shopping for me (for FBs and smaller folders only due to stupid Oz knife laws) especially come annual sale time :)

Catch you around my old friend

Hi Christian,

Are there Australian distributors for your products as yet ?

I'd be interested in trying the lubes out with my knives and firearms amongst other things.

Like Blondie :p my gents knives of choice are the Kopa and Kiwi and the Caly 3 CF makes a regular accompaniment in my suit pants. Usually people who are NKP aren't too fazed by the smaller knives of 3" or under. I have noticed that blade shape does also affect opinions in certain people. Eg: th...

Good point Paul, Didn't think about the machining/ milling out of the recessed clip. That would certainly be an offset to the additional sprint costs of the scale materials if that is indeed how it is constructed.

Blue G10 Lava sounds great !!! I'll be polishing it as soon as I get my grubby hands on one... Much nicer when it's a touch smoother when drawing in and out of pants pockets. The burgundy micarta pictures shown in a previous post above with wire clip are mine. Mods done not by STR but by Brad Southa...

I'd love the "All God's creature have knives" TShirt and would wear it proudly.

Sprint it :)

No politics, no religion, no BS. It's about the company logo and motto from years back. Sprint it, print it, wear it !
