Ok, I have found the review dating back to 97, and the company as well online. I wonder if they ship to Canada. I can't seem to find any info on their website.  :think:

Talk to Travis- he wrote the original Bear Jaws review when we started Multitool.org and it was a Hard Hat variant.  You can still see it on the Main Site.

Good- I'm not certain how much more subtle I could have been... :P

Seriously, Travis had gotten the Hard Hat as a product sample for a possible promo deal, which means he is very likely to have access to more.  Admittedly that was a few years ago, but he may still have information if not direct access.  That makes him a good source to start looking, plus he doesn't overcharge for international shipping.

I should be contacting him sometime next week if all goes well. There are many items off their website I am looking for.

Are the Hard Hat versions locking or non-locking?

I believe they are just standard Bear Jaws type tools with a different name.

Sorry, what I meant was current locking version or old style non locking version.
If they're old style I could be interested too. I already have an old 4" and 4.1/2" version anyway, but might be in the market for spares depending on price  :whistle:

They're not exactly pretty, and not exactly refined in construction, but they're the kind of tools you don't mind using hard  :)

I agree- they are very understated tools.  You will have to talk to Travis about what, if anything is available.
