I'm looking for K3 hydraulic knees, preferably polycentric, with stance
flexion resistance, but without geometric locking. seems to me this is the
best knee for at least one side of a bilateral AK if they can't get
microprocessor knees: be able to initiate flexion and ride it down as they
sit.

But so far the only knees I'm aware of with the combination of these two
comes from Otto Bock. Does anyone know of any other source for a knee with
these combinations of characteristics?

Thanks!
