TalkBlade.Info Knife Forums

Just found another one in a case I haven't opened in a while. This one has a "red dot" on the safety.

That's probably why they stopped making them. But despite the eventual failure mode, I love this knife. It opens strong and fast and locks up tight. I have three of them.
