Kiwi (stag handled slipjoint variant) review

#1

Post by Dagon »

Hi all,

FYI I just uploaded a concise video clip discussing the Kiwi slipjoint with stag handles. I also compare it with the original backpacking Kiwi:

In addition, I recently posted my opinions of the many protypes I was able to examine at the Amsterdam meeting in a thread here, and here is the link as well for future reference:
