Sal (or anyone): FRN Urban and Dialex Junior

#1

Post by Gibsoniam »

To Sal, or anyone else with a thought on the matter:

Curious if these two are still in the works for production sooner than later? I'm excited about both the FRN Urban and the Dialex Junior.

Patience isn't my strong suit... Hah!

Neither made it to the new catalog, so it's probably safe to guess later. 6 months or so maybe. Although sometimes new stuff drops out of thin air.

Hi Gibsoniam,

The FRN Urban is temporarily on hold while we watch the strength of the Yen, which is, at this time, much stronger than the dollar, which make the Urban very expesnive, even in FRN..

The Junior we just received prototypes for so it will most likely come out this year.

FRN Urban sounds a great knife :) Even if it was made in Golden with a different steel.
My spydies: Squeak, Tenacious, Terzuola, D'Allara, UKPK CF peel-ply pre-production, UKPK CF smooth pre-production, UKPK G10 orange leaf-blade, UKPK FRN grey drop-point, UKPK FRN maroon leaf-blade, Bug ... all PE blades :)

This is good news for the Junior! I've already got the G-10 Urbans, so I can wait for the FRN ones.

Thanks for the response, Sal!
