The Urban is really an effort by Sal and the Gang to adapt to changing laws and feelings toward knives. They are making a knife today that will be legal in 10 years (I pray that
all of our favorite knives are legal in 10 years, but we have to prepare for the worst.
).
Someone had proposed the idea of a "Suburban" (Love that name :p ), which would be an Urban with a lock. I think that if the Urban project takes off, then it could be a very real possibility.
Speaking of possibilities...
It's been said that the Urban has 4 blade shapes planned for it: Leaf, Wharncliffe, Serrated lambsfoot, and "Safety".
Well, I'm very much hoping that there will be a hawkbill version, as well. I realize that Hawkbills aren't the most sheeple friendly blade shape, but I feel that they are an indispensable part of an EDC, and I sincerely hope that the Urban Project can help to make hawkbills seem less "evil" to the eyes of NKP's.
Boy, 4 planned blade shapes (hopefully more... :D ), 2 known colors (hopefully more... :D )... this is going to be an expensive release! :D :D :p
