Kershaw Lee Williams OD1 Proto

[kneedeep]

14C28N is Kershaw's exclusive new steel.
It is slated to replace 13C26 in current Kershaws starting Jan. '09.
Some new knives like the OD-1 may launch with it.

One of the key characteristics of it will be better corrosion resistance than 13C26.
Thomas has also hinted that it may run a bit harder, but he doesn't want to talk about it.

Yeah I know, I am horribly impatient though. He meant the third quarter of this month right? So they should be available the third week oh June? Haha.

GEEZ!! Coach, just how many beggars do have to deal with on a daily basis!?!?!?

 

[darthsoaker]

When's this sweet baby comin' out?!?!

 

[Thomas W]

Well, this baby is going to be a while longer...I know, I know. We're having to wait on a few issues outside the knives, prior to cutting parts.

I'll say that they should ship before 2009.

Oh stop it, I don't need to hear talk like that!
