Drop point D'Allara release date?

#1

Post by sotyakr »

Recently, Sal mentioned that a drop point D'Allara is in the pipeline. Just wondering when it'll be hitting the shelves. With the other revisions to the D'Allara (slimmer scales, more accessible ball lock), I think it could become my new favorite (or, at least equally favorite) work knife (currently a Native). I've been looking at the Rescue line for a while, but frequently need some sort of pointed blade, so this should be perfect.

Sotyakr,
No pictures available yet. I'd say at least 6+ months away. Sal did state at one time he was carrying a proto of it. It should prove to be an interesting blade. I'm curious about access to the ball lock.

I don't know what it is, but every time I want to posts a pic I shouldn't post some filter mysteriously blurs it ... It's so odd since it looks great on my screen.

Worker#9, it's a self-learning filter. After you posted the 'SQUINT EYE' method, it now has automaticaly censored itself...

I'm carrying the proto today. nice piece.

The model is scheduled for about 90-120 days.

Ted, do you have a pic from the Netherlands seminar? If so, you can post it. I don't have a pic, just the proto, darn ;)

BTW, It's not too shabby in Pakal grip as well. Probably our fastest opener.

lol Ted. After the long day I've had, thanks for the laugh.

Now, about what Sal said...
First they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not stand up, because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Thanks Sal! Hopefully, I can wait that long (guess I'm gonna have to...). In the meantime, a photo (from anyone) would be great!
