MT33P - CPM REX 76 Mule Team Release!

[bobartig]

Took about six minutes to place an order from the time it dropped. Laggy, but not miserable. I'm guessing there's less interest in this particular Mule than, say, Magnacut. Hopefully everyone who is looking for one can get it.

And here I am getting nothing but error 8002 on the Billing & Shipping Details page

Are you cutting and pasting any information. I had issues once before and once I stopped cutting and pasting it worked OK

Been trying for the past hour. Same error every time. Same thing happened during Magnacut and it eventually just worked...

Just manually refilled all the fields but no dice

Wonder if it was billed as Rex45 if it would have sold out faster

Mike, please private message me with the email address you used for your account. We can clear that issue. It's our anti-fraud measures.

Got 2, my first mules, thanks
Wondering what's the hardness this rex76 mule heat treated to?

Somewhere between 68 to 70.

that's nice, similar to my maxamet native 5. I read about rex76 has this superior edge retention even at red hot temperatures, it may not be that "useful" as a knife, but still unique and interesting to have ~

[legOFwhat?]

Hopefully they shot for the higher end of the hardness scale on these, my Rex45 para 3 is one of my favorite blades so if it's close this knife will rock for a fixie!

I bought 1x MT33P this morning - my first mule!
Interesting experience, all the hype... yet this model still hasn't sold out hours later.
Does that mean folks don't like the steel - per Larrin, high hardness, mid-low toughness, more likely to chip?
Looking forward to testing and exchanging feedback. Based on the steel profile, might be a good camp kitchen knife.
In any case, first mule to test making a handle - excited to give it a go.
Thanks @TazKristi and Spyderco team for everything.

Well, I am certainly lucky. I try to check as often as I remember to do so. So just now (11 AM) I peek at the mule team forum and discover this is going on. And the limit lifted announcement was there. And I was just able to order two. It doesn't get much better than that!!

[luchycharms5487]

Wish I'd have seen COO before ordering. How's the Taiwanese QC?

[vanka]

Got one. Looking forward for the next 3. Going on a holiday for 10 days, and once I come back and it's still not sold, I might get another one. Or two. If you don't want to read my rant, you should stop here.
I find it peculiar with all the topics asking for the mule team to be active thing again, and yet everyone is very picky about the steels. I know we live in difficult times. But now imagine with all those social media peeps who only buy it for page views and followers and it's still not sold. And we all know what happens with difficult sales. If the mule team goes on hold again it might never come back. I know I'll get everything that comes from the mule program. Because I want to try out steels that I won't find anywhere else. Unless I fork out few hundred for a custom. A lot of people are like - oh, but this steel is very similar to steel X and it will perform similar. That may be true but then again, unless you try it out in your own hands you'll never know. Everyone have different styles in using a knife and use it for different things. Anyways, rant done.
Congrats to everyone who managed to get one or more, and let's hope the next mule will sell in minutes.

[legOFwhat?]

Anyone pick up a Rex76 from the SFO yet? Hows the quality?

[luchycharms5487]

How many were made in this run? I thought they would sell out more quickly.
