Man, I feel bad for you. It must be near impossible to get any of these exclusives and sprints at first run prices way out in Hawaii.Bdubs808 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2019 6:56 pmWow. This whole thing is a big ouch. I was waiting patiently for over a year for this re-release. I sold my Yojimbo sprint to fund the purchase. Stayed up until 6 am to buy one. Waited an hour and 15 minutes for server to come up but I literally could not stay awake; 11 more minutes would have got me there. And now they are gone

Big fan of M390

Jason said on bf that this is likely the last run of this knife before the drop, but maybe things will change after seeing all the demand for it.

For the love of Pete NO...lol. Another run of these would just take away from any other model that needs an exclusive run. A new CQI M390 Military, a G10 Native, a Manix XL, Manix Backlock, SE Dodo, etc. PM2s and Para 3s have been done to death. Other models will sell out just as fast for dealers like DLT and BHQ. And if other dealers would work on their hype game they could sell out their exclusives just as fast. DLT and BHQ do the best job of creating a social media fever pitch.
CRU-CARTA THE SEKI MODELS! AND BRING US THE DODO-FLY!

Even the PM2 is a little too big for my liking. But now I have one to go with my Hennie Haynes UKPK. UKPK for the pocket, PM2 for the pack.steelcity16 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2019 10:46 pm

Why must it be M390?
Do you think CTS 204P or CPM 20CV would have sold as fast? (Sorry I haven't been paying attention)

Wise words, well said Connor. :cool:The Meat man wrote: ↑Wed Jul 17, 2019 9:23 amLet's not go overboard on this, guys.
Remember the outcry back when the BladeHQ Exclusive Shaman was dropped? There was a lot of complaining about the "flippers" who bought 3, 4, 5 knives or more just to sell on the secondary market. It turned out that 90% or so of those sales were people who only bought 1.
And since when has buying something to sell for a profit been a crime?
With limited quantity items, there will ALWAYS be people who missed out. Period. Even if every single person just bought one to use, there will still be plenty of people who didn't get one. That is life. It's just the way things are, and you can't change it.
What the secondary market does, is ensure that those knives will still be available even after the dealer is long sold out. Think about it. If every person bought just one knife, to use, the poor people who missed out initially would never be able to get one. Those who wish to outlaw ebay knife flippers are actually doing a disservice to the people who missed out, by denying them a second chance at buying the knife they wanted.
I maintain that having a knife available at a $60 markup, is better than not having any knife available at all.
Just my controversial $0.02.

Wow, ordered Wednesday after a chaotic launch, and still arrived Friday before 9am - nice work DLT!! Man, this is a gorgeous piece, and I just love the compression lock on these. And it sure doesn't hurt that it matches my favorite Chacos. :p

Re: PM2 Red G-10 M390 at DLT Trading?!?!
Yes, very well said! And let that be the end of it! Ha.. not likely, unfortunately. It's just about every "collection based" forum's most favorite thing to complain about, and it doesn't ever change anything. With how many sprints are released (not to mention the re-stocking we have been seeing from some dealers) you would think people could get over it, and look forward to the next release. One thing I do when I miss an exclusive, is buy two of the next hot knife and offer one as trade for the knife I missed.
We need to see things how they are, and not let ourselves get so hyped. This is all just my opinion of course.

Just got mine today as well, DLT and Spyderco did an awesome job on this knife. I just wish though a Spyderco sticker came along with the knife.

The G-10 on this one is even more aggressive that the 20CV! Dead centered and smooth to open as usual. It is not drop shut out of box but I can take care of that no problem. Looks great in person. Look forward to putting this to use.
