Combative Edge X9 ??

Anybody snagged one of these yet? Don't know much about this company but the new X9 looks cool. Any details on this particular knife would be appreciated.

I got one yesterday and I am sending it back, total junk for the money. I bought the X9 custom, very disappointed....

It sure is an ugly thing. Shame to hear a negative review on it as well. What was wrong with yours, Ron? And who's making it for them? I think Fox makes their other folders, right?

I have to agree, the X9 is hideous. The harpoon was totally shoehorned in there to capitalize on the popularity of that right now. The proportions of it just look off to me. And this is coming from someone who is a huge M1 fan.

These are made in the USA, unlike their other folders. I don't think Rob from Combative Edge has revealed who is producing them, but I had the sneaking suspicion it might be HTM. The M1A has the exact sort of cutout for the inset pocket clip as the Gunhammer and some of the other HTM models have. The X9 has the same pocket clip as some HTM's as well, but that's just a parts bin piece.

I do know that the "custom" X9's were just regular X9's modified by Fernando at Lionwerks.
