Got to check one out the other day and found it to be very well made. Tight lockup, smooth action, sharp and centered blade. Felt good in the hand and I really liked the overall look. Anyone have one? If so I was wondering how it's held up over time and if any issues have surfaced? TIA

P.S. I did have one complaint \ concern and that involves the pocket clip. I thought it was awfully small, looked kind of odd given the size of the knife and the fact that it's tip down only. At least it should carry pretty low in the pocket but I'd prefer tip up.

Thank you. I'm fine with 440C but being able to carry tip-up is a winner. I'll be looking for the newer version. I like the looks of the bullpup.
 
It should be available soon.

Boker Germany is about 6 months ahead of their American office in making the new models for sale.

I agree with you on tip-up carry. It didn't make any sense why they skipped it on the first version of the Squail, along with some of the other Boker Plus models recently. They had several models before that offered both.
 
Any word on the new release with adjustable clip? Everything I'm seeing online still shows tip down carry as the only option.
 
I have found a dealer that has it listed in stock.

Unfortunately, I am uncertain as to if they are a supporting member here.
