Re: Crucarta UKPK?

I'm also interested in a UKPK with micarta scales, I would definitely buy one, maybe two. But I'm not sure if Cru-Wear makes much sense. A UKPK is not a hard use knife, so doesn't need the toughness. I think a steel with higher edge retention and/or high edge stability (so it can support low edge an...

Re: Poll: Which Golden Model Do You Want to See in 15V Next?

I voted for the UKPK. We already have a nice selection of steels available in the UKPK, but no tool steels yet. A 15V UKPK would be awesome!

The Manix 2 in 15V can currently be pre-ordered at Lamnia for less than 176 Euros, definitely the best price in Europe. The next delivery is supposed to arrive on March 8th.
Pre-order? I don't see any button for pre-order, and it now says "Out of stock. Delivery time currently unknown".

Re: POLL: Shape of "Standard Mule" MT28P2

I was disappointed when I first saw the standard mule. I don't like a straight spine, that's the reason why I don't EDC my PM2 much. I don't like straight spines because of a cutting technique I use regularly: upside down where you're squeezing the tip in between 2 materials, e.g. plastic wrapping, ...

Re: MT38P - M398 Mule Team Release!

I can't be online at that moment :worried
I'm not having much luck with these last mules, I was on vacation when the REX76 mule dropped, now I already have an appointment that I don't want to miss and can't reschedule.
I hope I can get someone else to order it for me ...

Beautiful new scales from Hazy Design Studio on Etsy. I really like the feel of these scales in my hand. Excuse the quick snap and dirty mat.

Nice! They look really classy.
Are these scales flat or contoured?

Re: UKPK LC200N

I like yellow more better So my dilemma right now is; do I rush out and get a yellow LC200N while still in stock, or.... does this color harmonizing mean there is a yellow UKPK Magnacut somewhere down the pipeline Here in Europe it seems to be out of stock everywhere. Bummer, I also prefer yellow.

Re: CPM REX 76, CPM REX T15, AND M398 and MT2!

Wow, 4 mules revealed at once. Seems like my remaining budget for the year has been allocated :woozy . I only wish the regular production mule did not have a straight spine. I prefer a slightly (downwards) curved spine which works better for the cutting style I use on some of my cutting tasks. I'm c...

Re: UKPK Magnacut?

I recently got a S110V UKPK and I really like it. I will probably also buy the salt version soon. If it has Magnacut, all the better. I do think that Spyderco should release the UKPK in Magnacut (salt or not) because people that have restrictive knife laws are generally also restricted in steel choi...

Re: What's next for the UKPK, Sal ?

Leaf blade, hap40/sus10, pakkawood (im looking at you KC) That would be an instant buy for me too! Though I think REX45 would be more likely to happen. I don't have a UKPK yet, but over the past few months I've been contemplating buying one and I'm becoming more and more convinced that it's the kni...

20 minutes in and still available. With previous mule teams (except magnacut) they were all gone by now. So demand must be much lower now.
Or the limit 1 per customer is working as intended?
Possible, but then I would not expect the website to be this smooth.
