Has the S110V UKPK gotten CQI?

Has the S110V UKPK gotten the same CQI to the spring, etc. that the BD1N has received?

I like the way the BD1N opens and closes, the feel of it, and the tension level. Anyone know?

I don't have a BD1N with which to compare, but it is radically better than the Gin-1 models I own. The action is not mushy like the older version. It's a very satisfying action to me, with a much more pronounced half stop and crisp "lock up."

Thanks. I appreciate the response. I know the other models have not been wonderful. My BD1N is fantastic and I want another one. (Sal, please give us S30V and a better color than Black)

I have both and while I can't say the S110V has been through the CQI process (not sure what to look for) I can say my BD1N and the S110V look identical and feel identical. The S110V has the wishbone style back spring that is not present on the Italian made Urban. I would love to see sprint runs of this and wish I could pick up one of those nice red G10 ones from across the pond. Would absolutely love one in either SPY27 or K390.

K390 would be my dream knife.
