Speaking of EDC Kershaw....

Wanted to grab a few of their folders....

THEN i notice.... speedsafe assisted opening... nearly all their folders have that...

Now this one i abit worried... wondering will it be intepreted as "assisted opening" under our switchblade law....

Anyone have some feedback on this?

Assissted, flick opening either by hand, spring, or by gravity, or centrifugal force is a big no iinm

Here any knife is considered a weapon though. But as usual depends on polis discretion based on carrier appearances

Ya... damn....

I was about to click buy until it dawned on me... sigh... there goes my kershaw edc..

quote++

1. Any knife, sometimes known as a flick knife, which has a blade which opens automatically by hand pressure applied to a button, spring or other device in or attached to the handle of the knife.

2. Any knife, sometimes known as a gravity knife, which has a blade which is released from the handle or sheath thereof by the force of gravity or the application of centrifugal force and which, when released, is locked in place by means of a button, spring, lever or other device.

i thought our law is similar to uk and by that extend we're not allowed to carry a knife with a locking blade

right?

frame lock?

Anyway, Police is king in Msia... its up to them to decide what's legal or not, the actual law matters little...

hey guys. Those tactical pouch is looking mighty sexy. Recommend one for a bro here please. Looking for something waterproof so that I can hang/strap it to the outside of my camping bag for easier access and something with inner straps.
*
These tactical pouch are mostly MOLLE types.

There are alot, mostly not branded and you can find in many of those shops in KWC, Petaling Street, etc...

Semi branded ones would be FLYYE, PANTAC (these 2 types i personally use), while more branded would be the 5.11 etc... they are rugged and use premium stuff liek YKK zippers, 1000D cordura, etc etc

Some of these MOLLE tactical stuff are used by real soldiers goign to war... meaning some can be very very expensive.

U can browse eagle for some example...

give some tips to clean it up please

want easy just take a sponge and soap then dry it.

Want do it nicer, soak it in turpentine, scrub it, then soap it, then dry it then use WD40 kasi spray nice nice to make sure water not trapped.

That's what I do to mine, mind you mine is not CX, not sure u can soak the carbon/clear coat in turpentine

its not from thomastool issit

i once dream of getting a kershaw skyline

but at that time it was around 400++

I got it for under $50 usd....

I usually pick them up during my trips to US

Isnt the skyline using sandvik steel? I think those prone to rust.. especially our environment.. (which the shallot also shares..)

Hati sakit a bit been carrying my darling Kershaw since last week but notice a lot of rust on the inside part.. Will a spray of wd40 clean it? Spray then leave or need to wipe or scrub or how? No need to detach anything right?

Rust u need to scrub.

What kind of rust we talking about here? Just rust stain? patina?

Or fullblown rust rust?

If u cannot dissasemble the knife, just dip it say thinner.. then spray some rust remove... try your best to scrub it abit... dry it off out in the sun.. or use electrical contact cleaner... remember to grease/oil the appropriate parts again.. i usually use singer oil or teflon spray

Kershaw usually use sandvik steel.... prone to rust de... my Kershaw Camp 14 is 65Mn (which is rubbish steel), while my shallot is 14C28N basically as good as it gets for Sandvik ( http://smt.sandvik.com/en/products/strip-s...ts/knife-steel/ )

Congrats on ur new sexy purchase

I like the Kershaw what's the blade material? and it ticks my interest on the schrade. But I dun have any heavy or hardcore tools myself blush.gif
*
The shcrade axe is made in taiwan using SK5 steel... thats equivalent to the 1080... nothing to shout about but good enough for an axe i reckon.

The "kukri" is 1095 CroVan... much much better material
