just how many of us could use that as an 'always' sig line

Looking at the specs on HH, they list the blade as 79mm long, have they made a mistake???

HH whacked it on their website today - Monday, their busiest day of the week - there're often typos on their website, they're a very human bunch of people

Does it really matter? Cutting edge is 68mm so all is well in the eyes of the law.

Ah, thanks, I failed to spot that.

[telwebb]

might be a daft question, but why the extra holes in the blade?

As I understand it, the thumbstuds are removable for places where OHO is a no-no. Chad thought it would look bad with one empty hole, so added the others to form a little pattern. They may even provide a little bit of grip for opening without the studs. A really neat idea in my opinion

[telwebb]

thanks Redeye - I did actually wonder if they might be alternative stud holes, but ruled it out

[Kiri]

Ordered here too! Let's hope it lives up to the expectations.

[Shibafu]

Out of stock already

Damn... I was just thinking I might be able to sneak one in before she gets to know what the last batch of new ones look like :p
