No more Black Talon!

I just went to www.coldsteel.com and www.ltspecpro.com and could find no listing of the Black Talon. The Civillian and the Matriarch must feel pleased.

Another victory for intellectual property rights! Hooray!

and found a few more boxes of Black Talon...

Oh yeah, we're talking knives here, not ammo...

Cold Steel,
Nice try but it's been done already, and done better.

Mel :
What caliber Black Talons ?

Really. I am surprised! Amazing how much clone crap there is out there and this one gets nipped! I am not saying I am happy about copies, just surprised it went so fast. Paul

Actually, Lynn and I came to an agreement for mfg rights. Lynn has always been honorable in my dealings with him.

The product was nipped due to Lynn's concern for quality, the piece didn't pass his QC inpspection.

Even paying you for manufacturing rights is a victory in the name of intellectual property. I'm glad to hear that Mr. Thompson is a stand up guy in his dealings.

Ditto what Thom said. Seems like Lynn has some of the Spyderco integrity himself.
