Pohl Force Fox1

I don't know it firsthand but it's quality made by LionSteel similar to the Bastinelli Creations Big Drago Tac Titanium Framelock Knife (4.625" Plain) with another interesting blade shape. A real bad boy!

Personally, I have a Pohl Force EOD Mike One Survival and a Bastinelli Creations BBR2. Great robust folders.

I had it narrowed down to those 2, but the Fox won out because the clip could be L/R.
 
I don't have one, but it seems like the easiest wave mod would be making an insert that bolts in place of the thumb disk.
 
I was on the verge of buying it but I didn't because of the tip. Such a big folder without tip... Same size like his cousin, Alpha2 folder and I have an Alpha2, so I didn't buy it. BTW, take a look at Alpha2, it has a good tip, a strong backlock, glass breaker and 4 position clip

I might buy a pair of the lockbacks for my matched set collection.
 
How do you like the Mike One?

Flawless and very smooth not too big with a 3.75" blade of Niolox stainless too steel. It's a more mainstream design. I have the exact one in the video review.

Charlie Mike,

There's also the Fox Knives Citadel Deimos with a 4.5" blade of N690 with either wood or micarta handles. It's a liner lock with a secondary lock. I have the wood one and it's very smooth but the flipper action needs a bit of wrist action. You can also deploy via the hole. Value priced. ExtremAddiction has them.

I was going to get one this week but then i found out that
The cf manix was out and i had to have it.
But I'm sure if you just remove the thumb disk you can wave it.

I like the old school thumb disk, are you planning on removing it?

Yup, unless I can undercut the blade in front of the thumb disk sorta like the Cold Steel waves.
 
Just submitted my order. Gonna be a good knife month for sure!
 
I definitely won't be buying the lockback Alpha.
