Month: April 2021

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

Firstly we would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has pre-ordered the Hoo Knives V1, we are extremely grateful for your support.

The prototypes of the Hoo Knives V1 are nearing completion.

The expected completion of both prototypes was the end of this month April 2021.

Unfortunately, we must report a small delay before completion of between 5-7days due to a Chinese national holiday slowing down the blades heat-treating process and postage.

The prototypes scales and structure are completed however we are waiting on heat treatment of the two M390 blades. Our blades are sent to Yangjiang, Guangdong Province for heat treatment, due to there being a highly skilled professional heat treatment plant there.

I would like to personally apologise for the delay in relation to the prototypes but please know it will not affect the estimated completion time of four months for the first batch.

We will be sure to keep you fully updated on this.

Thank you greatly for your continued support and patience.

Kindest regards,

Hoo Knives.

Dear Readers,

Just a very quick update to let you know the Hoo Knives V1 has been updated to allow for the pocket clip to be changed from right to left-handed tip-up carry.

We hope this change will allow for the V1 to accommodate everyone despite knife hand preference. ?

We are expecting the first Prototypes to be finished by the end of this month.
