As of 12:03 I couldn't even place an order, I had it in my cart and was in the middle of entering my credit card info and it lagged and then said there were none in stock. Disgusting to think 90% of the sales made are probably for flippers. Was really looking forward to swapping the blade to my OD Green setup :(

Got one. Can't wait. Had luck and refreshed as soon as it hit 11. Had my credit card info already saved to my phone so it automatically entered.

I was able to get one. I can’t believe they’re gone that fast after two runs of the satin version. These near white scales are meant for the DLC finish :)

Got mine, slowed way down during checkout but it made it through. There was simply no way I could pass up primo steel and store exclusive at that price. It is cheaper than the s30 version on some sites.

I got caught up with some stuff and was 20 minutes after the release start time. Figured it was likely sold out ... and it was!!

Had to come here to the forum to see what went down ... 4 minute sell out ... WOW!!!

For those that got one, Enjoy!

These PM2 & Para 3 drops are getting crazier and crazier. They're not even that enjoyable anymore and I was fortunate enough to snag one of these.

What's sort of funny is that despite the fast sell-out, the mark up on the secondary really isn't that high if you're patient. Right now on BF there's a LNIB PM2 from DLT with the uncoated 20VC for $175.
Wouldn't you think that a knife that sells out in 4 minutes would have more than a 20% premium in the secondary market?
Seems like the flippers are buying these up but the true, underlying demand is not that strong. Probably because there are so many exclusive/sprints of the PM2.

Dodged a bullet on this one. At least my wallet did. Was considering it but ended up stuck in traffic and didn’t even try. Congrats to all who got one.

I think there are probably more PM2 variant collectors buying these up rather than flippers.

Which is worse? Buying them to be a safe queen, or buying to resell?

This happened recently with Blade H.Q. as well total fast sell out!

I am wondering just how many knives are getting made for these runs? I am thinking very few, and wondering why such a conservative approach when clearly there are people missing out.

My darker thinking however will not be posted but I smell a rat!

Both are the worst! Especially when people that really want to use them, can't get one :mad:

I believe DLT posted "under 1000." Think I saw that on IG.

Going to pass on this one on second thought. I am moving more and more toward carrying LWs exclusively anymore. Going to keep my powder dry in case the BBS M390 Exclusive is something like an FRN Dragonfly or Delica. Also need to have funds in case some of those Para 3 LWs start dropping.


Glad I waited! M390 Delicas here I come! :D

800? Don’t they have minimum orders? Where are the rest? Package deals later? Andother drop? Or are they going to sell them on eBay for $300 each? 800 doesn’t make any sense.
