Just handled the prototype for the new Emerson CQC 14 Snubnose. What a great knife! It should be a THR member was the inspiration for it.

Long handle with a 2.5" blade. Should sell like hotcakes.:)

How's the lockup?

Solid as a rock.:)

I suppose a slipjoint version is too much to hope for :(

[El Tejon]

What's all this then?

Fos, what is a "slipjoint version"? Do not comprende, please explain.:)

[Fosbery]

Same blade/handle shape/material but with a slipjoint instead of a lock.

[El Tejon]

That's great, but what is a "slipjoint"???:confused:

Talk to Mr Emerson and see if he is interested in competing with the Spyderco UK Penknife.

If he is then they might produce a non locking version.

As a company they are at least aware of some of the more restrictive knife laws around the world and have catered for some of them in the past with their shorter bladed designs.

It might be worth an email.

Fritz just e-mailed me. The CQC-14 of his inspiration on on Emerson's website.
