Mr Harsey:

Looks like you have a new title under your name.

Please check your emails.


All:

Below is a flyer on the New Wave, retail is about $87 each, should be out in July or so. Greatly improved on the current model, which was the best.

If you want to see it, I may post another pic of their top of the line tool.

Questions?

Mr. Harsey,

Do you make or design a non-linear lock folder? I have looked far and wide (well as far and wide as google and dogpile can provide) and I haven't been able to find any of your designs that are a non-linear lock folder. I understand the linear lock is a great lock but I'm left handed and whenever I grip a linear lock knife I dis-engage the lock.

Joe

Uh-oh, checked emails but haven't downloaded the files yet. Nice pic of someone destroying perfectly good logging equipment. Bill

Smokin Joe, All the folders I make are liner locks but I bury the release in a well (no big cut out opposite the spring) so that it can't be released by the gripping you mention. I'm very familiar with what you speak of. I also make dedicated left handers as does Chris Reeve.

I don't know how I missed this one ALL DAY, but it happened. Welcome aboard Mr. Harsey. If I can help in any way on here, please give a shout.

Have you ever heard of a Knifemaker by the name of Van Sickle ??

Take care.
Martin

Ambush Master, Thanks! It's an honor to be here. No I have not heard of the knifemaker by that name but that doesn't mean anything, we have some GREAT knifemakers that I haven't met yet. Where does this knifemaker call home? Bill

Thank you Mr. Harsey. Now I need to start shopping.

Any personal favorites or recommendations on a left handed folder design with about a 4-6 inch blade w/ half serrated blade would be greatly appericated.

Thanks again for your help, information, and craftsmanship.

Joe

I see Tim (Leatherman) is using names on new products like "Blast" "Charge" and "Fuse", has he been hanging out with The Reaper?
