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!

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.
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.
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?![]()
Claw Fan Here...Mine, like the man himself CLB is riding shotgun in my shirt pocket as I type, Great Knife but wouldn't expect anything less from the Genius Designer, Sword Wielding, Hula Dancing, Volcano Climbing, Daywalking,Cane Cutting,Star Wars Watching, Master of Hell with Bars.....Doc![]()
Ya Doc,
You forgot BMX for oldtimers.. lol
Next to a larger blade this one or the wharcom always in pocket you bet!!:thumbup:
Just got my first subclaw today - like it very much!
