They have arrived
Now DW and DD want one

Two quick questions:

How secure are the tin lids? Will they stand up to being stuffed in a cargo pocket on hiking pants without opening, or would a rubber band or the like be a good idea?

Also, anyone know who has these in stock yet? I usually get stuff from Knifecenter, but they're listing them as backordered still.

The tins are similar to an Altoids tin. The lid is restrained from opening easily, but I would say they are just a tad easier to open than an Altoids tin.



Sorry, no idea, but should be very soon now.

Thanks

Just got mine 2 min. ago and it's all kinds of awesome. I didn't expect the tin or the nice instructions from Doug on rolling your own survival kit.

Thanks for the very cool Design Doug.

AG Russell has them, I just ordered mine!

I havent heard back from CRKT yet...starting to get antsy, and a little upset...

I just got mine from AG Russel about 15 minutes ago.

The knife rocks, for such a small blade, the curve of the handle makes it sit in your hand great and it's razor sharp.

The sheath is OK, but the fit is way to loose. As a blade cover in the tin or a PSK, I guess it's fine, but I had planned to wear it as a neck knife, but the blade rattles around in the sheath and if held inverted, falls out very easy.

Gonna look at some ideas to tighten it up and see what I come up with.

They were fast with mine, you should contact them.

AG Russell is cheaper and also fast so perhaps you could cancel your order with CRKT.

Good luck.

I emailed them two days ago-giving them till tomorrow. Then I will cancel & go with AG Russell. thanks for the heads up on that!
