    Yeah They've "almost" been "coming soon" for ages ... then there is the UKPK CF that's presumed to be out in the third-quarter but actually is being listed on some trader's sites already ... it's all very tantalizing but I'd really like to actually have one or two of these now. Assuming they get to Charity soon then it'll take a week or two for them to get shipped out and finally arrive here.

    Then there are models like the Lum Chinese Nishigun CF and the Balance CF that are already appearing in trader's online lists but gawd knows when they will be out

    Maybe they are having/had production teething situations.

    Two or three models have been withdrawn recently, perhaps they are making sure everything is spot-on this time........it'll be worth the wait I'm sure

    I've got a few on order from Charity. But it's the titanium UKPK that I really want NOW.

    I think everything will be OK but it's just taking them a while to assemble all the different colours and blade shapes/styles in Golden.

    Yeah, course it will be OK, but damn I'm impatient.

    Oh boy ... I know that feeling You can keep your Ti UKPK ... I *really* want the CF UKPK

    BTW, what's with this Ti stuff? Why do people like it? I mean, it is heavier than CF, it scratches and it is smooth and slippery

    But it looks sooooooo shexy (Sean Connery voice there), and is a little more chunky too and feels like an uber quallity knife because of the weight. I want the CF one as well, but have just bought the Caly 3 in CF to make up for the wait.

    Smooth and slippery is sometimes essential in this life, I certainly wouldn't describe the Ti UKPK as that though.

    I'd love the Caly3 CF - partly for the CF scales but also the ZDP steel ... I just can't quite justify buying one when they can't be EDC'd
