Mike Franklin Hawg production knives?

[TRAV]

Went to a local knife show today and picked up a production version of one of Mike Franklin's Hawg folders. Micarta slabs on the metal handles, 440 steel. Box says it's designed exclusively for Joy Enterprises out of West Palm Beach. There is also a horse with the word Mustang over it. Says it's made in Taiwan. It's not great, but it was worth the $42 I paid for it. Anybody else heard of this yet? I didn't know they were being made.

Check out these two styles; the one on the right is the one you got, I think: http://stores.yahoo.com/bestknives/mikfrandes.html

Joy Enterprises has a website, but it doesn't do anything, just gives mailing address, etc.

Yes, Esav, you are right. It's the one on the right that I got. The website says that it is a frame lock, but it's not. It's a liner lock and has a removable thumb stud as well as a clip.
