The CF on the Dice looks to me like the same cubic check CF on the Domino, just lit from a different angle (unless I'm mistaken).

I don't have a Chap 1 or Sage 1 (I know, the horror), so I can't say if it's the same or not, but it doesn't seem to be the same material as say the CF Stretch. What else has the Chap/Sage 1 CF? Maybe I have something else with it so I can compare...

The Terzuola SlipIt and Bradley Folder also use it. Surface looks like a lot of little tufts/mounds each a bit less than 1/8" square. Kind of like the surface of a knit wool garment.

Really? To me it looked it looks a little more like some of the lighting strike designs I've seen...but I could certainly be wrong too. Kinda hard to tell by the pic. The Domino CF scale always reminded me somewhat of a southwestern/style pattern that I generally dislike.

Regardless of the scale...if it's a smaller version of the Domino (hopefully 2.5" to just under 3" blade length range), I think I'll have to get it providing street/dealer prices don't exceed $150 or so.

If the full size street value is around 180-190, I would expect the Dice to be about 160. No chance at all it will be under a hundred. It's still the same materials and technology, just smaller.

I think the Domino could be found for around $150-160

I've never seen the Domino that cheap. $150 would be more than 55% off MSRP. The lowest I've ever seen was about $175.

I was with KW as a guest, and took a few photos.

Aghhhh the Tusk and Firefly are calling to me! The Roc also but if I get one I would probably take the tip down a lot and make it thinner in pocket.

MCM you've done this forum a great service here today. This is precisely what I was hoping for when I created this thread. That must have been fun being there to take these photos.

Out of all those knives the kiwi 4 is what interests me the most. It's a must have.

The Tatanka is gargantuan!!!!

Thanks for the great pics!
I really like the clip on the "Lil Lion Spy". It looks like a huge improvement on the full size model's clip.
The Roc looks very cool, but I wonder how it would carry?
I'm liking the Firefly a lot more after seeing these pictures. It would be nice to see one in person.
The Worker sprint should be very nice too!

MCM, what is the name of the knife beneath the Canon logo in one of the pictures? Thanks.

gbelleh · #55

To answer for MCM, that's the Worker sprint run.

bchan · #56

gbelleh, many thanks for the very quick reply, the Worker is a nice knife.

Able Dog · #57

Now I am very eager for the Roc, the bead blasted blade looks nice! I'll be damned if I'm not excited for that Lil' Lionspy too. There are some great things to look forward to this year.

Based on those pictures, seeing the Dice next to the Kiwi 4 we can draw some conclusions about it's size.

The overall length of both of them looks about the same, which is 6.78 inches listed in the catalog for the Kiwi.

The kiwi's blade looks like it is a little longer and handle a little shorter, the Dice looks a little longer closed. Kiwi blade length is 2.94" and closed length is 3.84".

So, I'm making an educated guess, but I think the Dice's dimensions are going to have a 2.75-2.8" blade, 4" closed length and overall length of 6.8". Shot in the dark, but I would guess about 3.5 oz since the full size is 4.2.

Is that orange slip-it of Caly nomenclature ?
