Hell Yes Chad.

I always carry this baby as a backup to another bigger knife. I can even clip it to my underwear /swim trunkies lol.

It performs excellent as package opener or other nasty jobs were an acute tip is needed. Splinters clamshells zippies nasty Bra closings .lol

Now where is this babys tiny brother... Keycom needed asap..

I carry mine as a money clip, helps disguide it. Very hadndy little claw.

The subclaw is one knife I always carry with me. It fits into the watchpocket when I am wearing jeans or otherwise just goes into my pocket and hardly can feel its there. I love the Trance too but the subclaw is is my favorite.

Now if there was only a subclaw fully serrated. That would be awesome!

Mine is on me everyday. Best little utility knife I've ever had. Pure genius, Chad. Uh,..... No, I don't carry it on my cap.

I have a subcom that is still NIB because of the Subclaw. It is always in my pocket. My wife even likes it. I have to buy her one also. Thanks Chad.

Aloha dragonram7,

Naw, thank YOU and your wife for your support of the SubClaw! My wife likes it too...She rotates hers with her Pottermized Polypearl Original 420J2 SF, and Red Rescom.

God bless and take care!

hey Chad, the Ti coating on the Hyper is very abrasion resistant, using it on the Subclaw sounds great.....beadblasted Aus8 should be much more "stain proof" eh? :thumbup:

Cool pics man.., very Andy Warhol IMO!

I got my SubClaw(and a Subcom) on a whim when I saw they were for sale here on BF. I thought they'd be nice little blades and for the price I couldn't pass them up. I wasn't expecting much though due to their size and price.., boy was I dead wrong. These things are really awesome. I can't get over how well they fit in my pocket AND in my hand! I was a little worried about the grip since they're so small but you can actually get a pretty nice grip on these!! Now I've gotta get a Trance and Hyper to go with these two and my M-type!

Good job CLB!! Keep up the great work!!

I picked up a Subcom from the same sale. I also wasn't expecting too much but this little knife is growing on me. It fits in the hand nicely and is SHARP.

It has come to my attention a while ago, that the Arbolito has a line of fixed blades with simular blade shapes as the CLB Sub-series, especially the Subclaw.

El Amigo 7.2 cm vs WharCom 4.1cm

http://www.boker.de/index.php?c=3000&a=02BA533H&s1=amigo&s2=0&s3=9999&p=&pp=0

El Pescador 6.8cm vs SubClaw 4.8cm

http://www.boker.de/index.php?c=3000&a=02BA534M&s1=pescador&s2=0&s3=9999&p=&pp=0

El Hormiga 7.3cm vs SubCom 4.8cm

http://www.boker.de/index.php?c=3000&a=02BA532H&s1=hormiga&s2=0&s3=9999&p=&pp=0

As the Arbolitos have longer blades, they can afford curvier curves (bad word combination, funny nonetheless)

I bought a SubClaw a couple of weeks ago and for some reason it just didn't click for me right away. I thought it was too heavy for the size and it was very hard to open and close. I decided to carry it exclusively over the weekend to give it one last chance before a trip to the "for trade" list. I oiled the pin which fixed the stickiness and stuck it in my pocket. Pretty soon the weight became a non-issue and I really liked how the width of the knife kept it from torquing around in my pocket like most clipped small folders.

Yard work was the order of the day so the SubClaw went to work on numerous bags of mulch, did its fair share of pruning, and was seriously abused opening some root balls. It performed great, fit well in gloved hands, and cleaned up easily. It has fully redeemed itself and is still in my pocket today awaiting more abuse. This is one of those knives that's meant to be used and I'm glad I decided to let it prove itself.

At last my first Boker and CLB design

What a sweet little knife, fits perfect in my hand.

Thank's Daywalker for such a cool design!

Agreed in every way, shape and form :thumbup: .

Coat a partially serrrated 440C, or 154 CM blade, stick true to the orginal plans for G-10 and then PM me for first dibs when when it becomes available .

 

[Maarten]

Great Pictures everybody. Keep them coming.

That El Pescador is looking nice too. I wonder when these new Arbolito's will be out. I also wonder bout there steel. Is it just 440A or 440C?

:thumbup:

I need a Claw!!! Guess I'll have to wait 'till my next batch from Fred or across the Atlantic. Planning to suprise my girl friend with a pink one - will the zytel hold aerosol/graffiti paint?
