I have made a couple of trips to Vagrant's site and picked up a couple of pretty nifty things and I must say dealing with him is a pleasure and he and his products are top shelf all the way! 8)

Best I can suggest is to keep an eye on the for sales and auctions, they turn up occaisionally.

Ah! Hahaha!!! :lol: Yes, now that I know it is a photomod, I can see it! Good! I like that blade; in fact, one of my Parkers is like that one (I don't know what that particular style is called - Turkish?).

I like to figure things out mechanically...but without looking at one, it's difficult to understand how that coil spring fires the blade...some kind of cantilever setup??? :shock:

They are all different, the pics at SG, but one thing they all have in common is a general resemblance to the profile of the AK...and the clumsy, cluttered look... :D

Basically the spring pulls the blade open. It locks open with a stud on the blade tang going into a sort of tab - similar to an Italian stiletto in principle.

Now we either need to get back on topic or Vagrant is going to have to get some of these in :wink:

I think I see...when closed, the spring is stretched, not compressed??? And when open, the spring is more-or-less "loose"???

Kind of bass-ackwards... :roll: ...but interesting...
...or Vagrant is going to have to get some of these in...
I'll take one! Maybe more...(depends on pricing)...

Whatchu say, vagrant??? :lol:

Vagrant squared me away in a deal for a Leverletto. The whole thing went effortlessly. Thanks Vagrant. You earned another customer for life.
