Does the 0551 have a stop pin and use the thumbstuds also as bladestops? It looks like that in the photo.

The 0551 only uses the thumbstuds as the blade stop.

there is more than one video, this is the first one i found.

the lock simply slips off the blade tang and the blade closes.

So those people get brand new replacements. I want to thank those folks that bring any concerns to our attention. And as always we want you (and me) to be happy with your purchase.

try

allaboutpocketknives.com It comes up as Cumberland Knife Works

Nice. Thank you.

Hmmmm, you are right. May be down for maintenance. Bill Horn is the owner and I know he also had them for sale on eBay. Try there, unless you already found one. Good luck

Oh OK. Thanks. I checked Ebay, and they had them for some inflated prices. Not a fan of that. Thanks again.

At first I was out off on the hest/f because of the whole RYP thing.


Now I REALLY want one of the regular production runs. Does anyone know when dealers like knifecenter will have them available for purchase? Anyone? RYP?

Still waiting to hear about those custom colored scales. RYP?

I missed that. When did he say that?

i am going to be at IWA in Nurenburg next week and discussing the cool new options for the existing HEST/F. We also have some cool dudes in the US that can do some stuff.

The goal is not to toss off scales in the normal color range but do something cool.

Any word on when the second production run will be hitting dealers?

I just had one sent to my house from Chestnut Ridge. I thought I had canceled the order but I guess I had ordered two and only canceled one. I didn't really want the knife. The longer I looked at the knife the less it appealed to me and to top it off I'm out of the country until the end of May. I hope no one steals it off my front door step.

What is the story with the whole RYP thing? I missed it. I have seen it mentioned a few times now but have no clue what it's about.

We're not doing this here.

Search W&C for DPX or HEST/F or Lionsteel or just check RYP's old forum.

[bchan77]

Can anybody tell me how to remove the glass breaker? Do I need to remove the scales first? Thanks.

 

[jacktrades_nbk]

use the cross hole in the skull tool ?

Thanks for the very fast reply, boy I feel dumb...

Just want to share a few of my first impressions. I just receive the knife from the postman. The handle feels great, very grippy and yet not abrasive, very comfortable. Very solid construction, blade perfectly centered, no issues of the tip being exposed etc.

I seem to recall that the knife weighs more than 5 oz.? It doesn't feel like that in the hand.

Bottom line: I like this knife!
