I have to go up to the mainland in Miami this week and will look up there. I am always up for a good new beer, thank you for the heads up.
Today's pair. The Chief is an outstanding design. I rarely care for folders this large but the Chief will see plenty of pocket time. Slim and trim for its size.
Because desolate places allow us to breathe. And most people don't even know they're out of breath.
Took a pretty bad fall yesterday, and besides some nice bruises and cuts on arms and legs I dislocated my index finger and thumb. Managed to snap them into place again, but the thumb keeps popping out and its base is blue and three times thicker than it should be...
So I taped it tightly to my hand... no righty thumb flicking at the moment... :rolleyes: :p

Hang in there my friend!! Hope you feel better asap.
Get well soon! I hope that, in addition to those "home repairs", you went to see a doctor. Often injuries that do not heal well from the beginning become chronic. And better to be cautious than to take that risk ...
Get well soon Wartstein! Time to learn the ring finger and pinkie spydie drop opening
Thanks to all of you my friends, I am actually almost a bit moved how caring this community really is! :)
But I have to say again: I am perfectly fine, this is really nothing. I generally have some minor bruises more often than not, and only shared this as a background story to my todays knife pic (I like to give a bit of background and context in this thread generally)
So no worries,, but THANKS again! :)
@Spydergirl: I made two quick vids: One handed opening and one handed closing without using the thumb at all (I ask for indulgence, these are each the first tries and what I spontanously came up with when starting fo film )

Get well soon.
I hope this small problem is not difficult.
You will write for now and open the knives with your left hand. Time to learn something new!

Had to.. :o
With this "thumbless" opening "method" the knife ends up in a reverse grip - without thumb a little throw is the most convenient way to transfer it to a regular grip..
Perhaps I´ll figure out something better - this was just what I did instinctively when trying to open the Endura "thumbless" for the first time...
