"Scouting" Special edition Scout knife anyone?

[lowtech]

I recently won a True Utility Multi which i will show in the Cheap and Cheerful corner once i did some pics.

I had to browse their website out of curiosity and stumbled upon a Sub-Brand called "Scouting" selling some differently branded True Utility Merchandise and some other products.

One of them being this knife:

Which i find not only appealing in looks but also quite innovative as it adds a nice touch (blade exchanger) to a classic design.

Does anybody own one of those knifes? Maybe any Comparison shots with a SAK?

It even could be interesting Mod fodder for teh Alox crowd, i imagine.

So anybody with first hand experience? I´d liek to hear something about quality, fit and finish before i order for high shipping costs...

Someone posted this a while back, has anyone bought one?
I think the idea works well, I'm just concerned about quality issues.

That´s my concern, too.
I imagined some of our brit members maybe had a brick and mortar shop nearby where you could have a look and feel of those knives and post their thoughts here.

Tosh, maybe you want to volunteer?!

If I knew who carried it I would. There is actually a scouts shop here in Sheffield and I do do quite a bit of odd-jobbing there. I'll ask next tme I'm down, unless ofcourse someone beats me to it and takes the plunge and buys one.....AL 

Must say tho' it does look very interesting. Brass liners too!!
