Salut,
je viens de recevoir le document PDF de lancement, mais je ne sais pas l'intégrer dans un post. c'est dommage car on voit bien les améliorations techniques.
Ce n'est pas le m^me document qu'a posté Sébastien au début du post.
voici le texte: (il y a m^me l'écriture phonétique pour le prononcer, quelle classe CRk !

"Umnumzaan
The long awaited new folding knife from Chris Reeve Knives is finally here!
Umnumzaan n (um-num-zahn) [Zulu]
Sir; Mister; Boss (colloq.)
In every sense of the definition, Umnumzaan is a knife deserving respect. Developed from the 20+ year
heritage of the Sebenza, this bold, innovative folding knife is one to be reckoned with for its inventive
design features and ability to get the job done.
For Blade Show 2008, CRK presents 20 prototypes, each with “Umnumzaan” engraved on the handle
and numbered 1/20. We anticipate these will all sell at a premium price. Once in production, these two
features will be omitted, making the prototypes even more collectible. We are planningproduction of the
Umnumzaan to begin sometime in September so finished knives should start shipping in October. We
have not finalized the price yet but expect retail to be in the $400 range.
A ceramic ball creates the interface between the blade locking
surface and the integral locking arm surface. The ball doubles
to drop into a detent on the blade to ensure the blade does not
open accidentally.
Typical of CRK, the pivot strength is more robust than other
folders. The large pivot screw and pin are supported by large
thrust washers. These perforated phosphor bronze washers
reduce friction and double to retain the fluorinated grease for
longer lubrication thereby extending the life of the knife.
The thumb lug doubles as the stop pin, ensuring a solid lockup.
Around the lug is a polyurethane o-ring that acts as a shock
absorber to cushion the impact of the lug against the handle.
Never wishing to copy other designs without giving credit,
Grant and Gavin Hawk originated the shock absorber concept
in one of their many innovative designs. We appreciate their
consent for Chris to use this adaptation of their concept.
