New lionsteel integral slip joint

I think I’m going to have to get a blue ti one. I’d wager the thrill will probably win them another award at the next blade show.
 
I may get one of those when they show up here. I haven't looked, so it's entirely possible they are already here.
 
Very interesting indeed. Probably a bit rich for me, but I appreciate what they're doing there. I'll have to see what the orange aluminum costs one they're in US dealers.

BHQ and GP knives have them listed in the "coming soon" but no prices.
 
Very nice design. Sadly the clip isn't reversible. I think I'll be going for the BestMan instead:

Looks very interesting, I’m going to keep my eye on this one. The blue titanium looks great.
 
I do believe I need me one of these in orange. I've been searching for a while now for an orange anod'd knife to accompany my Omega Planet Ocean with orange aluminum bezel, and I wanted something with plenty of orange sticking out of my pocket so this one's clip makes it perfect. Plus, I just find it to be a very intriguing design. Very interested to see the action of a slip joint on bearings.

EDIT: Just noticed there's a video on YouTube with a prototype from Blade Show.

Just too square cornered for me. I like nice rounded ends and radius on edges. The integral clip is fascinating and I’ve wondered if they would ever come out with a good design that would be sturdy.
