UK Comparison, Workman's to Survival

[Riverkilt]

Just put "drill" in the search box and you should get it. No biggie, just part of it.

I love them survival toggles too...held in helicopter rotar wash for me...sadly, they don't do anything for the back....can't post that picture...but one now exists of what happens to the back of a survival when the wind is just right...

oh didn't think of that. I did do a search though and I actually asked Otto about it when I was at UK HQ and he seemed a bit sheepish about it. I can understand they don't want to do a massive recall on all the kilts with that problem. I can only imagine what the turn around time would be if they had to cut their fabric by hand. Just a consideration to have when buying I suppose. I love my UKs though...

Cheers

I talked with Steven about the drill hole problem when I visited UK HQ in August. He was up front about it.. the drilling is a necessary evil and a part of the fabrication process. He didn't make any apologies for it. It is just something you need to be aware of when purchasing, preferably in person. I have 4 UKs, all size 42, and I cannot find any drill holes of consequence on mine. Maybe I got lucky. I know people that have bought UKs from their scratch and dent rack that had obvious drill holes and they have been happy with their purchase, albeit discounted.

Many thanks, gents!
