Fate of the spydiechef
So it's been months since I've seen the Chef in stock. Has anyone heard anything about it coming back in stock? Is it going to be discontinued?
Re: Fate of the spydiechef
We have been told here on the forum that there will be another batch by the end of the year.

It's a very popular model and when its in stock it usually It sells out fast. I would expect that there are more being made.Marulaghost wrote: ↑Wed Sep 18, 2019 10:15 amSo it's been months since I've seen the Chef in stock.

Unless there is Spydiechef 2 coming out, I seriously doubt it would be discontinued already.

Taz Kristie of Spyderco and forum admin here, herself has confirmed there are more coming so stay tuned to this same Spydie Channel daily when they release I am certain members will make it known here.

I don't think the Chef is going anywhere anytime soon. It seems to have a very strong following. I imagine the demand for it remains pretty high given how quickly the incremental batches of it seem to sell out..
I'll admit, I didn't really "get" the Chef at first.. but I was interested in it enough to give it a chance and I'm very glad that I did. I carry it quite a bit compared with some of the other models that I own and it continues to impress me with its performance as an edc knife.
I also recall reading something about a new batch by end of year. Hopefully, everyone who wants one ends up getting the chance to own one! Great knife!

Re: Fate of the spydiechef
Fair point..
Admittedly, the Bowie came and went before I really got into Spyderco or joined the forum, so I don't really have much of an insight as to how it sold compared with the Chef prior to being discontinued. That said, I can't imagine that Spyderco would stop selling a knife that seems to be doing so well right now, but I understand that there are other factors and logistical concerns that go into the decision that we are not privy to.. and you may very well be right! I still think that the Chef will be sticking around for the foreseeable future. :)
