Re: Clip Preference

The lack of a wire clip on certain models, is definitely keeping them on my wishlist, and not in my hands.

This, liner-less please.

And I wouldn't complain if the blade came in LC200N. Wire clip is a MUST! More wire clips!

Will be waiting for your impressions. I want the Bradley Bowie, but not sure I want to spend the cash for a knife in that price range.

Many times I've come so close to pulling the trigger on the Air, but really need stainless steel for such a folder.

How about an Aqua Salt in K390, with a more appropriate non-corrosive name of course. :O)
