Ref the Q you had asked Jo:

I think that they will accommodate the first 10 DEKs plus any other ones who wanted to snag another CPK pattern from their Blade Show 2020 potluck inventory. In other words a very rapid bang-bang DEK1 sale and them a nice slow pace for the rest till they marked it "sold".

Congrats on your soon-in-hands DEK1

This is dangerous knowledge, as I am also pondering a third UF... I have two pretty ones and I'd like a user...

Does anyone have any suggestions for a clip to replace a large Tek Lok? I at times wear pants without belt loops, and therefore without a belt, and Tek Loks don't work. I love Spyderco g clips, but the hole spacing is different. I may just end up drilling/riveting a spot to match the g clip, but figured I'd check around to see if anyone here has any other clip suggestions with the holes already set up as needed. This is specifically for my new DEK1.

Edited: autocorrect

Ulti-clip all the way. Exactly what you need.

The UF is my favourite. Can't have too many, and once they're gone I don't think they have the tooling to bring them back.

 

[SIx Magpies]

Now I need one

I have an extra set of UF scales just asking to be sandwiched around another UF blade. I think that's reason enough for me to get a 2nd?

I'm thinking maybe black G10 for a user...

Ebonite

FYI - G10 will move the balance point.

Ebonite

I tried. Also double black. Neither were available a month ago. Soif anyone has a set of double black or ebonite UF scales for sale.... please let me know

I ended up with black linen micarta and am pretty happy with it! It's a little more elegant than black canvas.

 

[Fonedork]

Ah haha I thought you asked for a picture

 

[Daverous]

I think it's pretty unfair you have both terotuf and ebonite for the edc. In order the balance the universe please send me one. Kthxbye.

I absolutely love UF. It's the knife I sleep with. I judge all other knives against it.

This old homey aka JustinFournier is one anal extraordinaire!

wonder if I can add that to his signature? If there is one power I'd abuse as a mod, it would be to edit people's signatures for my own entertainment

I would love a 4.5-5" version. I hope the DEK fills that hole.

 

[SIx Magpies]

I wonder what level of bribery would be required to get Nathan to grind a UF down to 4.5-5" for me

I'm now pretty sure the DEK was designed to make holes

The standard UF is retired. Once the blades I've made are gone there will be no more. The tooling was modified to made the Double edge fighter so there is no going back.

So you could make more Double Edge Fighters? Is that in the plans?

Any plans to do it any different lengths in the future?
