    Watching your video , it occurs to me that perhaps the fact that you can open the knife single handedly, it could still be illegal.

    I have a Leatherman super tool 300m mod I am most definitely not to alternate it to please anyone I am not destroying my Leatherman tool so I can make it dangerous for me to use, if the blade slips I will injure or cut my fingers off when using it, it could happen, this why is the safely mechanism on there to prevent this happening. The law need to look people using kitchen knifes.

    Very interesting video and you have gone to great lengths to comply with the law, and I sincerely hope you are never pulled up for carrying it. It is ridiculous that you have to mutilate and disable these tools so much making them quite dangerous to use for the designed job by making them non locking and able to trap ones fingers when using them

    I have also removed the locking mechanisms on Leatherman. I have a Squirt PS4 and agree this is more a curiosity than for day to day use, just for attaching to a key ring. I also have a Leatherman Juice XE6 which does not have any locking system straight from the factory. It is my understanding that the Juice is legal in the UK.

    I know I'm late to the party, but I have two of these. I have an M390 and the Damascus version, both in titanium. They *definitely* used red threadlocker on mine. I was going to swap the blades, and discovered... I pretty much just can't.

    Might be easier just to ask Leatherman to make a range of EDC UK legal tools, it's not just the UK with somewhat restrictive knife laws, there are other countries as well so there must be a market for such tools.

    I was interested until Made in China. Is this true? If so can anyone recommend a UK legal product that is made in England or Germany etc. Not worried about price.

    I recently picked up a Bestech starfighter. Overall im very impressed with the materials, fit and finish that this knife has for the price. Far more knife than id get from spiderco or benchmade for the same price. I'll be looking at what Bestech, WE and Civivi have to offer a lot more now. Great video!

    You been keeping ok mate? Miss seeing your videos and style! Your one of the best of not the best! This one is my cup of tea, but I don’t hate it. I’m also in two minds about these knife less multitool’s. If the tools on them after designed to be used as knives how can they do you for it? Would it stand in court? And on the ones with non locking blades which are in between the handles, how is that locked? Locked would be locked in one fixed position or angle. So because a SAK can’t close when your holding it for them make it a no? It just doesn’t make sense.

    Just got one of these, the spring resistance is very strong now? compared to say a Junzi which is a pleasure for one hand. The Luna titanium is a different beast and x10 the effort and not enjoyable or fidgety at all. Still like it though but was hoping based on this review that it could be my go to fidget etc. Waiting on a Hoo V3 to arrive, say no more.

    Could you add a bronze washer or would the thickness affect the knifes action? If not is there another material available other than the teflon? Teflon (PTFE) is not known for its durability - high degree of low friction with high degree of wear. Seems like not the best choice, especially considering the cost. Thanks again for the review, I was about to purchase because I have a few higher end Fallkniven and love them. But considering its pricing is double a decent slipjoint and as much or more than an excellent slipjoint like Great Eastern Cutlery, it’s very disappointing. Unless they have changed somewhat since this review I think it’s going to remain absent from the collection, EDC or not.

    got this one used from a local knife store, action was okay but it needed a cleaning. tore it down, cleaned off everything and regreased and now it wont go back together properly/it is grinding awfully... I have been fiddling with this knife for 2 hours and it is frustrating me. not sure if there is any tip or trick to this knife? literally have lubed every surface inside the kinfe at this point and the action is HORRID. super confused as I've never had an issue tearing down any other knife

    Thanks for doing that, I'm thinking of putting some ebony scales on mine. I know the steel is not the best but it's really uk legal, unlike some of my favourites where the ricasso and the edge come to more than 3" which has been thus deemed so I have heard. Pity you can't expect the police, magistrates and judges to know the finer points so that I can carry lots more knives, not all at the same time!

    It's designed and made by hand by 1 knife maker who will create the original design then you can customise to you're taste ..... equipment is expensive and the time taken to make is a lot more than a production knife ....,these knives are rare ... Beauty is in the eye of the beholder👍
