[QUOTE="sundownz, post: 7796548, member: 549523"] I am not sure what the deal is with the "Ti" frame patent specifically. I am assuming that Tantric has worked out a deal to use them with the patent holders. For an ornamental patent in general -- if I made an identical tool to a covered item and started making them with MY tool I'd still be in trouble. The appearance of the item is protected regardless of how or where it was made or who owns or makes a copy of the mold. I can quite easily order a patented frame from China but I would not be able to use it in the USA where the patent protects it without an agreement from the patent holder -- at least if they were willing to enforce it.
