Don't think I can mention the site, but think of CENTER of the universe and KNIFE. Looks like they have it for pre-order along with the 660 folder.

Looks like sheath "Includes a heavy duty nylon sheath"

Lanyard and thrown in my back pack, tough choice on packing the folder or the fixed blade.

Why not both??

 

[Makael]

Both fixed and both folders.

I love that pivot is adjustable. Wish they did that on more models.

Why? If it's adjustable, that means it's also unadjustable and what good is that??

so it can be taken apart and parts lost or not able to be put back together of course...

 

[jstrange]

Not sure if you two are joking or not, but for those of us who don’t like to adjust side to side play, or blade wobble, with a hammer or vise, having an adjustable pivot is a very nice option. Especially if a knife comes loose straight from the factory, which some are prone to do. For the record, I have never once taken any of my knives apart and still enjoy an adjustable pivot.

 

[jstrange]

Just checking it out on some sites and it’s a bit more expensive than I thought it would be.

Looks like the guts are the same as the Spitfire?

Do they have the lock rock issue sorted?

I dont believe its the same guts and yes they sorted the lock rock.

Could you say more on how the internala are different?

From the pictures, it looks like the same exact pivot screw used on the Spitfire and of course the mid lock position looks to be the same. That suggests the same pivot bushing and same basic lock bar configuration. But that's speculating from pictures.

Do have specific knowledge of how the internals differ you could share?

 

[jbmonkey]

lock bar couldn't be the same on the 659 as the spitfire. they are different sized knives. same mid lock design maybe, but not a parts bin part.
