S110V UKPK ETA ?
S110V UKPK ETA ?
I am so excited about this one.I purchased a CTS-BD1 UKPK a in 2016 and I'm amazed by its ergos but the steel is not quite my cup of tea.I suspect the S110V variant will very fast enter my daily rotation since it has all the atributes I like: great spydernomics and a bulletproof steel.So, do we have any idea of the ETA ?
Re: S110V UKPK ETA ?
Haha, I'm glad you asked so I didn't have to. :D
BBS had my hopes up when I saw they listed an eta of Feb. 2017, but then February passed and now it says "Scheduled for ____ 2017." :confused:
I guess it will get here when it gets here... I've nearly caved and bought the black one a few times b/c I want the newer ffg model with the stronger spring, but I've been trying to hold out for the dark blue.

I carry my S110V version quite a bit. It's the original proto. As mentioned it's simple, light, bulletproof and very effective. We'll be building 50 pcs / month beginning in April. We should have enough to begin shipping by the end of the year.

Re: S110V UKPK ETA ?
Well, at least the unanticipated Urban K390 helped slake that thirst. The announcement of the UKPK S110V stoked our enthusiasm early, but some late-to-be-announced knives seem to have cut in line for production.

Thanks very much for the update Sal.
That fixed it for me, ordered a black one from Cutlery Shoppe for now and threw in a pink Ladybug for the wife. :)

Phew! My Spyderbudget is pretty exhausted by recent and unmissable impulse buys (Pattada, N5 2013 Forum Knife).
Re: S110V UKPK ETA ?
Sad to hear this, have had a pre-order in since last year :-(
Re: S110V UKPK ETA ?
I guess I lied. I looked into it over the weekend and they should begin shipping this month.

2 k390 knives coming and a Mule should be sufficient for a month though.
Re: S110V UKPK ETA ?
Doing a happy dance now! Not bad for a guy with no hips.
Been looking forward to this release for a while now.

Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!
Re: S110V UKPK ETA ?
Awesome!
I'm really excited about this one. It's a perfect gift knife for some of the guys who work for me in Europe.

What??
I've been hornswoggled!!!
Just kidding, this great news. :)
For good measure I also ordered a gray serrated drop point so I'll have all of the old frn scale colors. Knifeworks still has a bunch of the old serrated and combo-edge drop points in stock.
