JD Smith Pics/Updates for C41CFP & C114WMP

#1

Post by TazKristi »

As promised, here are a few images of the new JD Smith (C58GPFG). Sorry, nothing fancy, just "quick & dirty". (They really don't do it justice, my ATR is going to have company) ;)

Updates...

C41CFP - Native4 - I do not have an ETA at this point, so that puts it 45-60 days out. When I have more info, I'll of course post it.

C114WMP - Viele Phoenix - We just received our initial shipment of these. This first shipment will go to Collectors, so I wouldn't look for stock with Dealers for another 30-45 days. We should get another shipment in October, those will go out through our normal distribution chain.

My impression, too, but I think I actually prefer the saber grind. It maintains more of the character of the original. I hope this is the production model.

There are similarities but several differences as well. The handles, while "similarly" shaped are contoured differently with the Smith being a bit more ergonomic. The clip on the Smith is 4 way. The Smith's blade is a bit pointer and it's PE.

I'm not saying the differences are like those between a Dodo and a Military :eek: but I don't think they are less than between, say, a Sage and a Caly 3 (overall style/size/shape, I realize they use different locking systems.)

I like it.It looks old school yet modern.It sort of has a bowie style blade look to it, like the chinook 1. I wish I could find a chinook 1, I just like the blade style better than the new ones.
