This is an exciting knife and I'm eagerly awaiting it, as well. Spyderco is such a great company - think about how many different knives they produce in a year and how many of those are "must haves". It's a pretty amazing percentage for me. Most companies I purchase a few items from and often times my experience is so-so, hit or miss. It's just what production and the modern world has turned into. But with Spyderco I get true craftsmanship and value in very appealing products. It's amazing when you think about it. What a great company.
The latest video on the southfork, at the Amsterdam meeting, sal said something like late summer..Some websites
say spring,but only someone at spyderco can give us a definite answer.
Just saw the pre-order for this model popup on a large online vendor saying estimated delivery of April. So unless it's April 2013 I would say that is an overly optamistic estimate.
I thought I'd read that it was due in the fall. I guess it doesn't matter a lot whether you (or I) order now or later, since it's a production knife. Oh wait, where are those Yo2s and Para2s and a few other production knives??? :o :D

no worries, just means its about time! Im also REALLY craving a Szabo Folder after handling it at the blade show. Thats a winner right there. If only I could fuse the two and end up with a s90v szabo!

Hah! What a joke, $400 plus $12 shipping....... :eek: Other one is reasonable at $330 shipped free. Hopefully Howe's didn't sell too many pre-orders on this and I'm not too far along the list.
