Ruger may have the last laugh in court, though.
Congrats on your collectable. |

Sorry but it is not "Political Correctness" to attempt to recall illegal, dangerous, or mis-manufactured knives. It is sensitive to legal action but not political correctness.
Political correctness is calling a "Black Jack" a "Sap" as to not to offend African American. How long before some fool cuts off his finger and then sues Ruger because the knife was automatic and "I didn't know it would just open like that". |

Quoted: I recently purchased two of the new Ruger all weather knives. Apparently the maker of these knives, Paragon, violated their contract with Ruger by making these knives in automatic configuration. When I called Ruger customer service, the girl said that they had entered into a contract with Paragon to make a manual opening knife, but Paragon made about 1000 or so automatic opening knives. When Ruger found out about this they told them to cease production. She then offered to BUY THEM BACK FROM ME for what I payed for them! I of course said 'no', since they are now an instant collectable. In other words, the politically correct Ruger has their name on a switchblade knife! Hahaha! Gun Broker has a few on their auction site. I'd snap one up if I were you. [img]http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1604840&a=12235587&p=57339353&Sequence=0[/img] |

Maybe not the case here, but dealers can also modify manual knives to "auto".

Maybe Ruger smoked Paragon on this one. Ruger gets their name on a fine auto knife AND people will think they are collector's items. Great advertising.

The same reason YOU go to anti-gun McDonalds, Burger King, etc... I pick and choose my battles where I see fit.
