You know I did see a pair in some online catalogue. Unfortunately I was looking for something else and I forgot which site it was. I will keep this in mind next time I go searching.

SOrry Jamie, can't help you there.
However, I will search just like SaiFightsMS, and if we find anything we'll tell you.
And just for my nosey-ness, what type of weapon art do you practice, or are you just interested in kama anyway?
C ya

I just had a quick look for you on a search engine to no avail, but you may have better luck.  |

Well I went searching and found some traditionally made kama. Made to be right and left handed, they even had wooden covers for the blades. Really cool and really expensive.
Then I wandered into a site talking about whips and got very distracted. Spent a long time there reading.
So no folding kama yet but I am having a good time.

History arguement  ? Did I miss something? 
Does not matter to me the why or how of what type of kobudo someone studies. Or the reason. Just as long as they enjoy it. And maybe are willing to talk about it. I really enjoy comparing things. Now remember I said comparing not arguing.
