I think these classic colors are perfect! No bright colors for me on this big mamma jamma!
Understandable. Thank you for the answer, Sal.
That’s true.
I image the majority of sales for this knife are non LEO even though the intent might be different.
A DLC Stainless Partially Serrated in Black FRN would be an awesome must have for me. But I doubt there is enough market since DLC and especially ComboEdge are not big sellers. I still kick myself for not getting my Comboedge Military with a black blade.
Using a steel backspacer would also increase the weight!sal wrote: ↑Mon Sep 17, 2018 1:17 pmWe're making an FRN version to get the cost down. A steel back-spacer is a considerable up charge for a custom piece that has to be individually worked. It is always surprising when customers say they want G-10 or steel back-spacers and then when we deliver on these requests, we're told they're too expensive.
The current Police 4 has it all. A large blade, good geometry for cutting/slicing, A super steel for edge retention, Machined G-10 scales, steel back-spacer, 4 way clip, etc. Then I hear it's too expensive. Then the "make it in China like the tenacious", Then I hear, no China, make it in America but for the same price as the Chinese made version.
I guess the only solution is education, which is what I try to do.
