What does "HE" stand for?

 

[redsparrow]

mbkr Not exactly sure but I do know it has a pen blade not a spey.

Thanks. I hadn't noticed the "HE" designation before. A quick bing search turned up a surprising number of HE knives, but no explanation. If I figure it out, I'll post it up.

Edit: Well duh I should have just went to AAPK in the first place. You were on the right track. According to AAPK the "HE" designation means that the knife has both pen and sheepfoot blades.
