DSE 3 #1 February 1, 2008 Is anyone aware of a shorter Jack-the-Ripper style hook knife? I have a 20cm long one, but looking for something a little shorter, same width. Approx 15cm would fit the pocket just perfectly. Suggestions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSE 3 #3 February 1, 2008 Captain Hook looks wider, but the Jack the Ripper doesn' have a listed width. Length of the Captain Hook is perfect, however. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have one of those in my wingsuit hookknife pocket, it's exactly the right size for that ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 3 #5 February 1, 2008 That's exactly why I was asking. I'd contacted the manufacturer, they couldn't answer. An owner of the same suit told me the Jack the Ripper was perfect width, but was too long. Thanks for the help, off to Paragear I go. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
parachutist 1 #6 February 1, 2008 QuoteCaptain Hook looks wider, but the Jack the Ripper doesn' have a listed width. I have a Carbon Captain sewn onto each of my jump suits. It's short enough to fit on a leg without getting in the way, it's strong, has 2 blades. Comparison images: http://www.funjump.com/photos/hknives00.jpg http://www.funjump.com/photos/hknives01.jpg The Captain is a little wider at the head, but sheaths are almost same size, so it doesn't take up more space on a suit.

skyguysq1 0 #8 February 1, 2008 Square One has some new metal knives, shorter then the jack knife. One is called the Aero and the other is called the Capt hook. Between 10 and $20 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 3 #9 February 1, 2008 wish I could have seen those on the Square 1 site. I ended up ordering the knives and some other needs from Paragear. I'll have to peek in the Square 2 store in Eloy next week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
