UKPK question

#1

Post by awa54 »

I have seen legit looking Foliage green G10, leaf bladed UKPKs both with and without serration/jimping on the forward finger choil. Are the smooth choil knives genuine? if so when did the change happen and which version is the CQI?

Hi David,
it's absolutely legit! I bought mine in 2008 (no jimping). The CF version I own has jimping on the choil. I think the CQI was done 2009 or 2010.

Thanks for the info! There's one on eBay now with the serration (my preference), but I think I'm going to have to let it go, since I just ordered a Caribbean...
