Aloha ALL,
Got home from HELL to find a box from Boker Germany!!! (Ya know, I love coming home to stuff like this!)
Anyway, I am kinda in awe right now...so for now, here is what arrived...
DIREKT PE: Whoa. I gotta say, for a G10 steel lined folder, it is much lighter than I thought it would be. Liner lock is nested deep enough to not disengage when I held the DIREKT in hand opened and "twisted" it. Whew...this was one of my concerns when I found out it was a liner. The ala Carson Flipper is HUGE and this knife flips with authority! The flipper acts as a guard in the open position, and completes the Sub-Hilt design:
Holds well in forward and reverse grip:
I will not be using this one for the fact that I actually scored a DIREKT PE serial number 0001!!!
DIREKT Black...hmmmmmm, if this has three edges, is it a "3E" instead of CE?
Anyway, I will be beating the daylights outta this one, and will thoroughly enjoy testing my "MidWay Edge" concept. I already switched the clip to tip up, and need to place my Grip Strip on it.
EDIT FB: Wow. I love this lil' FB!!! Ligher than the SFB, and this one is also Ti-Coated in black! Love the fob, only thing is my sheath is a bit loose...damn. Gonna use this one with either a Tek-Lok or MercHarness. I just hope it satys put in neck or MercHarness mode.
Okay everyone, enjoy the pics while I go and test out these buggers! Muahahahahahaaaaaaaa!!! Thank you Boker Germany, for allowing me to be the first in the USA to own these!!!
Mahalo MUCH all, and God bless!!!
