Aloha ALL,
The Boker Plus CLB Design SUBCOM-F, aka "Original Biscuit", is still the best selling folder out of all my collabs with Boker.
I was kind of shocked to see that since it's arrival into the knife industry, it has yet to be out sold by any of my later designs. I thought the Trance would have taken over by now, or maybe the variant in the form of the WHARCOM. Nope. The SF was first reviewed by BLADE magazine's legendary writer, Mr. Kim Breed. Then onto a few more legends: Steven Dick, Michael Janich, Ralph Mroz, Jan Miller, Fred Perrin, etc...Jerry VanCook of Tactical Knives called it, the "Tiny Terror", and they all pretty much held it in high regard. Then folks started modifying, or "pimping" their SF's to their liking, because it is not only "easy" to do with the SF, but the price point of the SF makes it a fun knife to customize! Most known on the forums is potterma for doing such "pimp jobs", but there are a great many others doing their "own thing". I have seen some incredible "pimped" SF's out there.
Makes me very happy to know that the SUBCOM-F is still being sought after and used by both knifenutz like us, as well as "non-knife" nutz. Guess I just wanted to say mahalo much to all of you who have either experienced the SF, use it, own it, gave it as a gift, etc...I gotta admit, it is a lot of knife for it's size, very easy to maintain, and it is very urban friendly. Out of all the "SFV's" (Subcom Folder Variants) I have been carrying the hawkbill version known as the SubClaw mostly, but today...I think I will carry my "Original Biscuit". (Boy, I wonder if famous knife designer DiAlex knew what he was starting when he nicknamed it that! LOL!)
Mahalo much everyone for making this lil' one,"The ONE"!!!
God bless and take care!
Chad
PS: I wonder though, with this new law, will it remain "the One"?

(there will be a nice "forbidden" hole)
I liked my Subcom.
