MY UKPK arrived today!! This is a fantastic knife!! WOW!! I am really impressed. It is a GREAT size for EDC. G-10 and an S30V blade. Great knife!! I am so glad I bought one!
 
Well done and, I can't wait to get one myself. I almost purchased the DKPK which is available locally but, decided to hunt down a UKPK due to its larger hole and, slightly larger blade. Post a picture of it if you get a chance. It strikes me as one of those understated Spydies.
 
I'll bet TKC's looks something like this. :D

Very nice, but I'm holding out for the locking UKPK...are they calling it the caly 3 now?

If I study in England, I'll definitely pick up one.
 
They have been released for sale in the US. I saw one at the Spyderco Factory store the other day. I think that is was marked as the UKPK.

What a nice knife! I really like the low profile clip that's on it.

I know the knifecenteroftheinternet is carrying them now. I got mine from Hieine Haynes. I LOVE low ride clips, and the one on the UKPK is fantastic!! Yes, the locking UKPK is going to be the Caly III. And I will get one of those too, as I love Calys. Artfully Martial: If you land up going to the UK, don't you want to get one before you go there?? I know I would.

Get this, you can also legally carry that bad boy in Boston!!! :D

I like that, and am VERY excited they're going to stop marketing the UKPK for just the UK. It'll make the best Boston knife ever!!

Boston has a 2.5 blade limit, and the UKPK(it has a 3 inch blade.) is too long. My Atwood Solar Arc is the knife I carry when in Boston!
 
I love the UKPK carried one as my EDC for a year now and wouldn't be without it. The best slipjoint for using I have seen.
 
No, the Boston statute is blade that is 2.5" for a LOCKING folder. Since the UKPK doesn't lock (according to the lawful description of locking folders), its legal.

Okay, conflicting reports. Can someone point me to a website that carries the locking UKPK if they're available at all? I thought they were beginning to be redesigned only rough a week ago.

I will buy the locking UKPK in a heartbeat.

Unfortunately no.

45 PROHIBITING THE CARRYING OF KNIVES OR SIMILAR WEAPONS.

Artfully Martial: To the very best of my knowledge the locking UKPK, which to MY understanding, is going to be the Caly III, is NOT out yet!
 
MY UKPK CAME TODAY! It is a awesome little knife. The F&F are perfect. The edge was sub par for a Spyderco but tuned up easily. The low ride clip is exactly what I have been wishing for. I can now carry a Spydie in Gentile (Sheeple) company. Except for not having a lock this knife is the perfect EDC. When the Caly 3 comes out it will be the absolutely perfect EDC. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :D
