Lot of nice knives out there, I'm all for spreading it out a little. Couldn't afford them all at once.

I'd like to see a damascus Endura/Delica with white stag scales and nickel silver bolsters.

It might depend where you are on the list. I'd imagine if you're high enough your knife would ship with the first batch they received.

It depends on the HT; there's a discussion on BF about the ZT 560CBCF S110V knife, but the HT is flawed. The S110V cutting edge is only Rc = 58-59 due to its san mai construction. S100v can be HT to at least Rc 62. I don't think I can post a link to another forum. Hopefully since the forum blade is...

I'm hoping the CF S110V Native comes out before the Forum knife.

It should be interesting to see how the 2013 forum knife plays out. It has had an interesting start.

Anyone superstitious ?

Seems like the Green Para2 and the Green Native will be coming out around the same time. Do you think they'll use the same color green aside from the crosshatch that the Native is getting ?

The South Fork, Para2, and Native should make a nice set of green knives.

Wiha make good tools IMO. How come that goofy looking knife is in your picture of your torx drivers? :) Just kidding. That P2 came with a little side to side blade play due to the pivot screw being a little loose. Of course it was the one under the pocket clip. Didn't have any torx sets at the time...

^^nice piece of history shunsui! Got lots of good memories. It's funny to think these came out back at the same time as the original IBM Personal Computer.

My only real criticism of the knife is that it feels awfully large clipped into my jeans pocket. And the sharp edges of the scales can be a bit uncomfortable on the hand when you are reaching into your pocket to extract it. The edges were a bit annoying. I found running a sharpmaker rod in the groo...

Never even considered one as I thought I was too big and overkill for what I need a knife for. Well, it still is overkill (for what I need in an edc) but wow once I held it I couldn't put it down. This thing is sweet. The camo pattern and black blade really make it pop. The lock is sweet too, would...
