New US OTF

Post by Bill DeShivs »

A US knife company just announced an inexpensive D/A OTF.
I'll try to order one tomorrow for a review.

I know Hogue just came out with one but I don't think it falls in the "inexpensive" category.
It's all relative though.

Do you have a web address where we can check them out? I'm not having any luck locating one.

Will be interesting to see if Colonial has copied a Chinese product. Now that would be a switch (pardon the irony filled pun)

I've been carrying a colonial M-724 for a year, and I love it. Very handy knife, and it gets heavy farm use with 0 problems. I'm very curious to get the review on the OTF!!!!
