CUDA 1 lineage

[Little claw]

I have noticed that the Camillus CUDA 1 looks remarkably similar to Bob-T's ATCF (particularly the handle design).

Is there a relationship and if so why is it not credited?

Just curious...

 

[Michael Bennett]

by CUDA 1, do you mean the CQB-1? Bob Terzuola designed that blade, too. Hope that answers your question.

No, I mean the Lev-R Lock folder, with the spearpoint blade. Apart from the opening gizmo it looks very similar to the custom ATCF (Advanced Tactical Combat Folder?) that was (is?) offered by Terzuola himself.

Sorry I wasn't clearer on that.

The CUDA 1's were influenced by Terzuola's ATCF model, Do a search here using the word Terzuola and you'll find all the answers.

The Lev-r-lock is a different design and mechanism than the CUDA.

I can't wait to buy the new CQB-2, when it comes out.

Isn't the cqb 2 out yet.

The CQB2 will be debuted at the Blade Show in June with production being ready shortly after.
