I figure the odds are approaching zero that 2019 will actually see four reveals. I'm sure it seemed like a can't-miss way to impose some order on the production pipeline when they came up with it. But if your production process is too difficult to predict with certainty, you can't just create that certainty by reporting on the uncertainty more often.

Aww have a little faith, one thing I have noticed during dry spells Spyderco has been working up major bursts of interesting releases.

Now mind you as far as I am concerned the Z Cut knives are a completely different category and while there are many different types I myself speaking only for me consider them as one for various reasons so I do not see them impeding the last reveal.

This year we have seen some pretty good surprise releases from DLT and others and they have tended to be close on each others heals, too close making them hard to afford for some, to few making them unobtainable by others.

Strange year. Still Think they will pull in the final reveal but may be delayed in production of said revealed items into 2020 despite best intentions. Then again who knows 2019 has been the year of the burst mode.

I wholeheartedly agree. I've also quickly found out, that my personality does not blend very well with this new Reveal system either.
It just so happens, that the knife that caught my attention the most, and that I was quickly excited for, in Reveal #2. Is still not out yet. As I continually stand on my tippy-toes, waiting and watching for it. It ages me, after so much time has gone by.

I'm pretty sure now, that I'm going to quit looking at the Reveal's, and just wait until the mention of something interesting, hits my inbox. :rolleyes:

Wait, there haven’t been two reveals yet this year? I coulda sworn there were two, but I guess I’m wrong...
