TomTom, That's quite alright, the knife is hard to understand just by looking at a picture. Now if you had one and had used it, and still felt it was an inferior knife, I would be very concerned. It has been a long hard road to get where we are now, and my number one concern is to try to help people that may have doubts about it's function or usefulness realize that it is not just another gadget or gizmo.
It's not easy to introduce a new knife idea or concept into this experienced and educated knife world I have learned. But by people testing and using this knife in the field, it really helps. As the article written about the idea in my hometown paper said, it has never been about money, I made a promise that I would focus only on quality and real life function and usefulness, after all, if it did not work when the user needed it, it would be another useless idea.
By the way, I collect knives of all types, folders and straights, love them all, (just ask my wife
) so I am glad to be here now so I can talk about all these knives. I have felt just like you many times in the past, the truth is, you did nothing wrong, you just need to be convinced by facts and evidence before you believe, and sometimes it takes a while to prove a new thing really works as well as our tried and tested ones do.

P.S. Did I mess up this thread by posting in the wrong place originally ? Gosh, that would be terrible for my first post, I am sorry if that happened, maybe someone can explain where I need to click, it seems to be different than the U.S. forums in the way it displays after post.
