But look at the smurfing price!  Just not funny

[Millhouse]

Yeah, considering the US price is about $90.

[sappyg]

But look at the Colorful Enunciationing price!  Just not funny

OUCH! if my math is right that price is the equevalent of roughly $163. not counting shipping or other taxes that's a bit much.

Just the same as the others - which I always argue was daylight robbery.

[Sean]

Nice blade!  I see we are getting the new frn one's pretty soon and they look great and are
a bargain.

Have they stopped using FFG on the UKPK's?

[nuphoria]

Is FFG the G10 scales?

If so, then no. The FRN version is just a new cheaper option with several colours and blade types available.

FFG = Full Flat Grind; it's how the blade's cutting edge is shaped or started, I think.

Actually the slipits are about as safe as you can get to ship in.  They cannot fit into any of the banned items.

Yet two have been seized as Gravity knives by Mount Pleasant customs

i gotta find that place when i finally get to work at mount pleasent

The FRN rescue version was just released with MSRP of $60.

[Benner]

And then returned may I add (unless there have been more).

In order for it to be a gravity knife it has to lock.  Even they can't argue that one.

So far they are holding firm on one lightweight  just recently   I sometimes visit BB just to check up on what is being seized  

the one in question has had a return letter stating they still believe it to be a gravity knife regardless

I once read a thread on some other forum that a Brit had wrote, basically he got his UKPK confiscated because the officer said that because it clicked into place (like every other slippie on earth) it locked and so he took it. smurfed up man.

That was a few years back and is found with a quick search on the uk blade forums, I  believe the officer who confiscated it chose to seize it as an offensive weapon not as a locking blade as it was carried by a doorman on duty.

The full thread is worth a read but it does get out of hand so have a pinch of salt ready.
clicky

That's the one, never realized it was 5 years ago! I guess things have improved since then?

amazing.... and yet you put up with this. sad... very sad...

[AHB]

Well, the DKPK isn't legal in Denmark so i'm not surprised if the UK knifelaw is screwed up also...

I personally don't put up with the nonsense however to challenge the seizure in court we are quoted upward from £1,500 in costs,most go down asking for restoration route "free" but is unlikely to be successful anyway,so put simply we're shafted what ever we do.
