This showed up a little while ago...

And this is the assembled product...

Solid knife--worth well more than what I paid for them. Still have to go out and pick up some loctite and a round file to adjust it a bit, but I love it.

Yup--got the five pack discount price, can't beat that price. Unfortunately, though, all five do not belong to me. Two are being shipped off on Monday and 1 is going to a friend as a graduation gift. And I haven't decided if I'll be giving the other one to my friend for her birthday or not--depends how nice she is to me...

By the way, I like your new banner.

Thanks Zen!
I hope she is real good to ya!

Here is my parts pic. Oops, just realized I forgot the carbon fiber inserts. Doh!
They probably would have looked like Smith Bros. licorice cough drops anyway.

5.0, did you order your kits from Knifekits. They seem to be on back order for now.

FivePointOh · Post by **FivePointOh** » Tue Jun 10, 2003 8:22 pm

Yes, it was a pre-order and they were all filled.

I think more will be available after the Blade Show.

cool construction site for the typhoon... I eagerly await the end of the blade show.

And I just checked and they are taking orders again for the typhoon. Got 2 on the way
