I don't know if you are referring to my post or not but if you are, you may want to re-read it. I think you're confused. Where did I say the absence of a flipper makes it more like an XM-18?
I actually said I would like to see this knife released as a non flipper. I said that just because I like non-flippers.
Completely seperate from that, I said the knife itself (either flipper or non-flipper, I'm speaking in terms of the overall design) may turn out to be similar to the XM-18.
Either way: Two entirely separate issues. What difference does it make what I think anyway? It's not like I have anything to do with the design. . .![]()
Moved to the Kershaw forum by request.

I kind of liked this thread in the General Discussion area. I know that technically it belongs in the Kershaw forum, but it had such great attention in General area. Is it going to lose some steam now? I think that many of us agree that this knife will be a game changer for production knives and it should be front and center for all to see.
By the way, only 44 days until Blade Show!!!! Hot damn!!!!!!
Plus there is no worries on it getting to page 3 now.![]()
I cant wait to see pictures after blade!
Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems to me that one of the reasons that helped this knife become a reality was the fact that so many people wished the 0551/0550 had a flipper version. Or it could be that manual flippers just plain kick a$$.
Thrill, have faith brother![]()
Don't worry; I won't lose focus. The days are getting longer, but the wait until Blade Show is getting shorter.![]()
Can I get on a list and buy one at Blade?
Or are we just talking about seeing a proto at the show?
Thanks
Thats the spiritit's gonna be fun when we get these bad boys!
Ain't it great? This is one of those perfect marriages - a collaboration between Rick Hinderer and Zero Tolerance. You know it's going to be a super knife!![]()
