Sorry, no pics yet. I'm gonna try to get some from them, but at this time no real pics are available.

Cray - nice try, buddy!

CRKT is definately the one to watch with exciting new designs. I'm really looking forward to the e-lock and Grant Hawk's K-AT.

Jan '04?

Hey wait, that is my Birthday!!!! CRKT, in honor of my birthday (that will be #60), please sent me a Hissatsu!

 

[Crayola]

Man, I hate it when people beg for free knives on the forums....

Dear CRKT,

I hope Dexter passes this message to you! Please send me a Hissatsu for January 24th. That will be my 26th birthday. You may get a similar request from this Esav fellow. If you have only one January Birthday knife to give as a present, please sent it to me! Esav will be 60 and thus he has fewer years to enjoy the wonderful fruits of your labor. As I will only be 26 in January 2004 I will have much more time to appreciate your hard work with James Williams, your own design team and your manufacturers. Please give Dexter a big pat on the back for his hard work at being a great intermediary between knife nuts and knife manufacturers like yourself! In fact, I believe he deserves a free knife of his own. Not the Hissatsu, of course, as that should go to me. Anything else. If you have 2 of anything else, please send one to Esav. If not, don't worry. He's almost 60, but he'llg et over it

I can't wait to get the E-Lock. I hope for more Elishawitz collabs in the future.

Hoping to see some actual pictures of these knives. The Hissatsu is very interesting. I quite liked the original.

For those of you that like me had never seen or heard of the "original Hissatsu" Here is some info and some pictures.

A review (bad)

handle on Hissatsu looks cheap. Design is nice.

So Ancient Edge is going top sell them alongside CRKT. I e-mailed them to see what the materials are for their version. At $80, it should be close to what the CRKT version will sell for online($99 MSRP) May not have to wait til January after all.

Dex, it's been 2 months, seen any pics of any of these yet? Esp. the E-lock?? "Are we there yet? Are we there yet?"

Although... on the M60 SOTFB page, why did a knife company let their technical writer get away with saying "Knifes" and not "knives"!?! Thats bad form guys I'll still buy the knives anyway

If you look closely at the text, you will see that there will be two versions, a spear point and the tanto shown.

He's pointing out the spelling error, not an issue of plurality.

Have I ever pointed out that I was born in a black hole?

That's why I am so DENSE. : )
