Where to buy Albatross and Whale

[longbow]

Anybody know where I can purchase these two? It appears from the forums and on u-tube that some of the Albatross models have the tang cut at a more severe angle, which develops blade play out of the box and some have the tang cut more straight across. Obviously I want one of the Albies that have no blade play. Ok thanks and keepem sharp

So no one has a clue? Has the lock up on the Albatross been fixed does anyone know? thanks and keepem sharp

it just came out so lock up isnt fixed, bladehq had them and sold out they were both just released

I got the Albatros from BladeHQ last Thursday when it came out. Sold out the same day. I got it Saturday and haven't been able to put it down. I've probably flicked it open a thousand times already, and lockup is still rock solid.

Mine is still rock solid as well.But the blade tang is cut so steep that only a corner of the lockbar touches it when en-gauged.I wonder how it will hold up over time.

Great knife though!!!

I want one so much... Hope if I get one it isn't one of the crap ones.

I really like this knife. Check it out..

Are there any overt China markings on the blade?

No "Made In China" markings at all. The only visible labels are Boker and logo, Anso and logo, VG-10 and the serial #.
