To Amacks:
I make it a rule to never say never. To answer your question, I have talked to Darrel about his new fixed blade Impulse and it sounds very interesting. I expect to receive one soon to review. From a production standpoint it takes a minimum of one year from when a production design is finalized until you complete the first production knives. We expect to receive the 4" blade Impulse next month and the 3" Impulse in Spring of 2000. If all goes well the Outdoor Edge Apogee framelock version should become available soon after.
As far as the fixed blade Impulse, it is open for consideration however no decision has yet been made for a production version. As always your comments on a production version of this knife are welcome.
Thank you for your attention.
