thanx

I had one for a short while, IMO a decent little knife with an interesting and different design.
They made it in BG-42 and also in 420 BTW. If you got the BG-42 version, congratulations.

I'ts a framelock AFAIR

I think it the Lake & Walker lock is very clever on paper, but in real-world execution so far is kind of ugly and just gets in the way
Don't really need it on a framelock IMO

its to keep my other schrades company-i did a search and it looked interesting enough to grab for $25 delivered

I was fortunate enough to get both the SLW1 and SLW2 at a price that I thought was well worth it.
