Re: MT35P - CPM MagnaCut Mule Team - Release Date

Last I heard, my Mules were on a conveyor belt in Kansas City looking for a ride towards Atlanta.

They were hungry too, wanting some fire hose with cardboard for dessert..

Re: Not happy about quality or warranty repair.

Maybe try "rolling" the tube repeatedly under a plain edge with some pressure?

This might simulate pipe cutter operation?

Waiting for my Magna Mule...

Re: Mule email

Yay!
My debit card was charged today and UPS tracking shows "on the way".

Predicted delivery is Tuesday.

So hang in there...

Edit to add:

As of tonight my Mule order is in Lenexa KS, on its way to GA :)

Re: Is my Ti Millie Real?

I found this knife on ebay's "sold" items. The seller, knife, and box look good to me.

Fireman and Doc Dan, I thank you both.

Being only three lines, these are something to ponder in one's head when trying to get to sleep, etc.

Re: scales and sheaths

My first Mule is on the way, too. I ordered Spyderco G-10 scales and a sheath ahead of time, so I could use it right away. But seeing all the different handles people are making has got me wanting to do that too, probably after the first of the year. So thanks for these threads, all very interesting...

Re: emotional support thread for those who missed MT35

My only complaint is my MT35 hasn't shipped yet (I know, I know, it's the weekend..).

But UPS says my previously ordered G-10 scales and sheath are on the way.
