Any news from the Benchmade/Aeormedix camps on the status of Doug's knife?

(...OK, call me a kid on Christmas eve...) <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I justed called them and they say the knives will probably ship next week.

I just received my shipping notice from Aeromedix. Should have them in my hands on Monday.

I received my three RSK1s last night. One for me plus one each for Father's Day and birthday gifts for my dad and brother. Very nice.

The handle shape is quite comfortable, much more so than my CUDA Dominator. The thumb rest gives a great feeling of control. I haven't tried any heavy cutting, but the blade shape looks very useful. The mechanism has a good solid feel and the blade finish is excellent.

Received mine in the UK on Monday morning. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I thought lock blade knives were illegal for private citizen possesion in the UK!?

Locking folders are considered fixed blade knives in the U.K. and fall under their carry laws. If you are engaged in an appropriate activity or trade for using a knife it is legal. If your dressed like a droog from Clockwork Orange the constable is going to ask you to "come along now, thats a good lad."

Just got mine.

Very pleased.

Very sharp.

...............#!%$^& Going to E.R. now.

I hope you are not going to use it on the neighbors two chubby kids you posted about earlier.

Chris:

I do believe you are stereotyping the "Bobbies".

The last time I saw a "Cops" segment in England, it seemed more like "Move again and you're going (Insert appropriate angry peace officer verbage who just chased you in fear for their and public's life.) so that your own mum won't recognize you".
