Some of you may have heard that Kit is coming out with a mid tech version of his popular Model 4 folder for quite some time now. Well, Kit finally got the prototype finished, and he sent me pictures and specs on it and said it wasa OK to get the word out.
These folders will be assembled and fine tuned by Kit, Mike Obenauf, and Jody [Kit's son].
Here are the specs, in Kit's words:
Pricing and availability have not yet been decided on, so please refrain from inquiring about these, especially if you email, er...bug, Kit about this
He will have the prototype with him at the Blade Show, for those who are going and are interested in checking it out closely.
OK, I know you're wanting me to shut up and get the pics going, so here they are. The line to get one forms behind me
