Hey what’s up with that?? My Hap40 Stretch has SUS410. That’s 10 more SUSes!
If I get one I might acid stonewash it.

I would have preferred a HAP-40 Lum Chinese in the larger size.

Yeah, I’m excited for it as well! If I can catch it in time I plan to snag one. I’ve always thought they were amazing looking, but I doubt I will carry it much if I’m honest with myself.

I’m pretty interested in this too. It looks like their sales price is going to be $220. Seems high, but the knife looks good.

Yeah, should be interesting. The M4 Jade PM2 sellout was when there wasn't much else out there. So much choices now in so many great steels and so many models. It's overwhelming. The Manix and Military Jade M4 were available for quite awhile. They even offered the M4 Military with a free Squarehead at one point and it didn't sell out. Then they offered it with another smaller Spydie (a red Tenacious? I can't remember), and that is when I think they finally sold out.

Also, while this is a "must have" for many, including myself, there are plenty of people who hate the Jade G10, and plenty who aren't interested in Tanto style blades, so this one is going to be unpredictable. Heck, the Red DLT PM2 was available for a few days. I don't know what it would take to get a single day sellout in this amazing time of nearly unlimited options.

I am not generally a fan of Tantos. I’m curious how thick the blade stock is. Either way I like long blades and with a 3.5” cutting edge. I’m in. Love the design and HAP40 is nice. I have really enjoyed my Pakkawood Endura.

Looks pretty awesome. It's cool to see HAP-40 being used for Exclusives/Sprints. I'll probably pass as I already own the original titanium version, but this is certainly a great-looking knife!

That's beautiful! Too bad I don't like tantos or linerlocks.

Wish they would start using any color other than "jade" g10.

A very appealing knife for the G10 & Hap40. Liner locks are not my favorite, but I have been very satisfied with Spyderco's execution on my Military. My only real hang up is the tanto blade - seems like it would be awkward to use and an aggravation to sharpen.

Can anyone comfirm if its a concave or a convex grind for the tanto part of the blade? I cannot tell from the pics.

Thanks.

Its gotta be either flat or convex to get that cool radius look where the main hollow grind meets.
