Not black, so it doesn't scare sheep as evil. It's safety orange, so it is friendly and helpful.

They're still in stock...I know for a fact that at least one got ordered yesterday...So they could have as many as 9... Smile

I understand why he has done it but I'm not so into the new tip.

I'll trust Ernie on this one, there must have been a problem that had to be corrected in the design. Myself, I like it...

Oh, I totally trust him of course, and I understand why he did it. I just prefer to wait for a Tanto blade Karambit Wink

So you're waiting for the CQC-7 Karambit? You know, I haven't really figured that one out...or the Bullnose Karambit. I haven't seen them in video demonstrations, so I can't quite figure out how you'd use them...

Yep, you hit it on the head. Smile

How to use it? I suppose it would be like the event this weekend when I pulled out my gypsy jack to cut something. My friend asked me, "what do you use something like that for?" I replied, "anything I want to". Everyone laughed.

Great! The OBS section at the Emerson Website sort of went into a holding pattern since 2011 when they moved to the new facility and expanded...Ernie's been maxed out for a few years because of all that.

Are you in USN? The OBS section at the USN seems to be a bit more active.

Are you going to try to get an OBS Knife?
