How great is that!?! I have been saying for a while now how I would like to remove the blade from the artifact in order to make it legal EDC in the UK. Looks like there is a better solution.

Looks like there is a better solution. so even a microscopic blade like artifact´s,is illegal cause it locks?how about removing the lock instead of the blade:) ?

I doubt that this will actually hurt the Atwood brand too much, but I'm sure it will, um.... iritate.... a few fans. I could be wrong, but I doubt people who would actually fork out the $$$ for an atwood would settle for these, and people that would be happy with these wouldn't dream of shelling out the $$$ for an atwood.
It's an interesting thought though- how far would we go for quality, or a Made in the USA label?The Shard is a Chinese manufactured tool, but it has no moving parts. It's a slab of solid steel with some fancy cutouts and some black paint. I am guessing it will retail for around $10-15.The Prybaby is US made, has no moving parts, is solid steel (or titanium) and has some fancy cutouts and occasionally some kind of coloring, and I rarely see them for much less than $60, and often around $100.We often berate the "cheap Asian knockoffs" around here, and yet here we are appreciating a Chinese manufactured tool that could be construed as a copy of a respectable US brand. It seems so unlike us that I have to wonder a) where we draw the line and b) are Atwoods thought that lowly of amongst people who actually carry and use tools instead of people who buy them for collection/investment?Vellly intulestink....Def
I still got to get one of thise. For some reason my order never went through.
