Bill Harsey пришёл поздороваться ещё с самого утра :)
А к вечеру я попала на стенд Chris Reeve Knives, с которыми Bill сотрудничает долгие годы. Он мне показал их душевный новый нож. Который уже через пару часов забрал приз и звание Best American Made Knife 2018.
( про цену говорить не буду, чтобы не мешать любоваться моделью ;) )
As a slip joint and non-locking knife, the most important part of the Impinda is the relationship between the blade and spring.
The Impinda manages pressure at every point of contact, using a differential spring pressure.
The balance creates a smoother opening, safer closing, and positive engagement in the fully-open position.

Impinda:
Our vision was to make a modern slip joint and to do it well.
One with sleek lines and a functional blade for the outdoors.
And so smooth it clocks open, but closes safer than your grandfather's jack-knife. Introducing, the Impinda: a Reeve/Harsey slip joint made to cut, fold, and repeat.
