I have plans to make the entire Endura family in K390. BU wasn't planning on making an more K390 until October so we're just waiting on material.

Well, now you have my attention! This is fantastic. When are you looking at a release date? Perhaps late Spring or early Summer?

Well, I’ll be... Looks like my Endura family is going to grow. K390 is one of my faves.

I’m curious what had to happen in Seki City for European steel to be allowed into Japanese-made knives.
The EU and Japan recently signed a trade pact i believe
Don't know if this has anything to do with it or not, but BU is now part of voestalpine and they claim to have 56 companies in 11 southeast Asia countries now, including Japan, not to mention 500 companies in 50 countries in all five continents (& California) :eek:
K-390 on hand: Mule Team 17, Police 4 G-10, Endela (burlap micarta), Endela backup, Endura (canvas micarta), Straight Stretch (now blade-swapped with G-10 Stretch), Delica Wharncliffe, Dragonfly Wharncliffe, & Dragonfly Wharncliffe shorty mod
Note to self: Less is more.

I'm very excited about this! Would these be a sprint run or a regular production option? If K390 went into regular production for the Endura family, that would break my bank account... :eek: :D
