ASP SAKalike?

Anyone tried one or know anything about this? A friend of mine is in law enforcement and I was thinking about maybe getting him one as a gift. Would be cool with the handcuff key.

I only have experience with ASP tactical batons, but they are of very good quality, and I would think that the NEW! Blue Line Edge Knife (Handcuff Key) knife would be of equal quality.

I wonder if Victorinox is making the knives for them....one of the other models. the Advocate Knife,  has the exact same mini phillips screwdriver, nailfile with screwdriver tip, and scissors that are on a Vic Mini Champ.

The tools looked familiar so maybe they do, if so the quality should be very good

anybody try one of these yet? I like the locking serrated blade, but seems a little pricey. The company rep in the video on amazon says "unlike cheap pocket knifes, our scissors have the spring mounted in the frame" Way to take a shot at the product you copied, sheesh, I thought that was kinda lame, but it seems like an interesting rambler clone.

They are made in China, so I would say Victorinox has absolutely NO involvement in their production. I've been looking at the Advocate, which does not have the Handcuff key. ASP has them on sale for $20, but the shipping is just ridiculous; and I see no need in buying 5 of them (free shipping threshold is $99) just to avoid an $20 shipping charge  My problem is that the scissors look exactly like the "cheap pocket knife" scissors on a lot of Classic copies that are pretty much just decorative and don't work at all. Used reasonably, one should not have to replace a scissors spring in their lifetime (I have a Ranger from the 1950s still with the original spring). But, for me, the serrated blade is the main thing going for it.

Interesting idea with the handcuff key given that their audience would be LEO and the like.

I like mine. Very close to a Classic, but a little less refined.
