Hi fellow listservers,
I have not had a huge response to my enquiry regarding the Acphapend knee
but thought it was time to give you some feedback. To date I have had 4
responses. 3 of these were requests for me to pass on any information I
got. When these landed in my in tray I got quite excited thinking there
might be some juicy info in there. Dirty trick:- you know who you are!!
Anyway, the other response follows for your delight and delectation.
Enjoy! Needless to say if I get any further responses I WILL post those
to the list so you don't have to ask.
Grant, I too have had very nice results with that knee. I have 3 or
4 people on it that had been breaking Tehlin knee regularly. It is
easy to maintain and very easy to adjust. I do not like the socket
connection system that they use. The little locking screws on the
sides strip out or do not hold tight enough.

PS For those of you who don't know anything about this knee I have found
the manufacturers web site which may be of interest:

I suppose I should give the ritual disclaimer too. Hand on heart I
promise that I have no connection (that I know of) to the makers of this
knee:-)
