Slysz Bowie out of stock everywhere?

#1

Post by NickShabazz »

As a prominent Slysz Bowie enthusiast, I've had a few viewers mention to me that it's out of stock nearly everywhere, and one place mentioned no estimates. Any ideas, comments, or insights? I really hope Spyderco isn't going to discontinue it!

Hey, Nick:
It's just backordered currently. There are more to come but I'm sorry we don't have an ETA at this time. Hang in there!

Clearly the entire factory it was being produced in was allocated to Sliverax only production and now they have to catch up. The hype is real I tell you!

Hah. No, I'd just hate to lose a go-to recommendation. CRK killing off the Ti-Lock was tough enough on me, if Spyderco Sliced the Slysz, I'd be inconsolable.

Hi, Foxrock321:
Welcome to our forum. The Slysz Bowie was discontinued in 2018. I can't speak to the future, but we appreciate your feedback. We never say never.

We hope you enjoy your time with us.

I'm not a huge fan of this Bowie but I want it to come back so bad so that nobody can sell the older ones for outrageous prices

It was too small in the grip. Need one closer to the size of the Caribbean.

I'm just waiting to see if this lil' Nirvana materializes. Spyderco needs a good competitor for the small Sebenza.

Thanks for the post Nick. I figured I was out of luck getting one. Of course if it wasn't for you I would not have had to have one...

You do realize that Nick's post was from over 2 years ago right?

And I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it was discontinued and they go for more than new prices on the secondary market.
