I have a few of the ESEE knifes and just love them and the IZULA Folder looks orgasmic, so what's the release date on this girl?

IZULA Survival Kit & Concealed Carry Knife

Last I heard is that there was no release date, it's not in production yet, and it probably won't be a frame lock. It is still an ongoing project, as well as an RC-3 folder.
 
There has to be a word for what that cheeky Jeff Randall has done to many of us with his Izula folder idea... showing pics of such a good-lookin' prototype then telling us the release date is "TBD"... giving us 'blue-pockets'! What a tease! :D
 
They did the hest folder instead, and "delayed" this better looking knife.

DPx Gear and ESEE are entirely separate entities now. Since pre-HEST/F release. ESEE did not delay the Izula Folder for the HEST/F, DPx gear just decided they wanted a folder before ESEE decided they really did too.
 
I talked to Jeff at the blade show and he didn't have any idea when it will be released. It seems like ESEEs priority is their gear line right now, but I'm sure we might see it in a few years. Its a sweet looking knife, and I'm sure will sell like hotcakes.
 
I would buy it with zero hesitation. Very nice indeed and I agree that it would literally fly off the shelves.

Oh well...maybe one of these days.
 
The trouble with getting these and the esee3 folder made is finding a us manufacturer that isn't already at maximum capacity and is willing to make the volume of knives while making it a high quality folder. The esee3 folder prototype had alot of design issues and was basically scratched for the time being. The izula folder hasn't made it even into the prototype stage yet and won't for the foreseeable future.

take it easy

That's a bunch of bad news. Wonder if they will stay with the idea of esee3 folder first still...??? I would be all over the izula folder like white on rice. We'll se what year it lands...in the meanwhile I would volunteer to evaluate the one in the photo if they need! ;) :)

If it wasn't just a rendering, I am sure they would let you :p ;)
