What knives have made the change to BD1N?
Does anybody have a clue as to which models have actually made the transition to BD1N?

Also, it’s my understanding that it’s a rolling change so if you’re looking for a model that it supposed to be swapping over... ask them to look before sending it your way.

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
I want a M2LW, but not blue because I already have that color in BD1. I’ve been tempted by the UKPK somewhat. The Cat will likely not be as nice as my old one with the jimping so I’ll pass on that one.

Z-CUT is, but not transitioned from anything.

Not sure if one would call it a transition per se, but the Para3 LW is another.

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
I’m really looking forward to seeing what this steel can do. I wish there was a pocket knife for me to use. Maybe I’ll get a Cat just to work it out.

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
I understand wanting something different. But if you like the manix LW already then I say get another in BD1N, give you a really close way to compare to BD1 in the same knife.

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
I will. I’m waiting on another color.

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
This is truth.
In my recent search for a Manix LW in BD1N, it became apparent that some retailers weren’t aware of the change over or which version they had in stock. So it pays to ask even if their website is advertising BD1.
Also, I only got hits on the translucent blue option. It may be the case that this colour is more popular than the others, thus has a higher rate of restocking compared to black and black/DLC. Time will tell.

Me too. It may have been a post of yours that lead me to message Jeff. He didn’t know about the change so you must have gotten lucky?prndltech wrote: ↑Sat Nov 02, 2019 9:14 pmI got mine from cutleryshoppeTims wrote: ↑Sat Nov 02, 2019 9:09 pmThis is truth.

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
Does anyone know if the Polestar made the change to BD1N?
Never had one, but looks like a great and very pretty little knife (if you're ok with linerlocks), but does not seem to get much attention.
BD1N might give it another chance??

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
Agree, they are a pretty knife. I’d likely get one, Alcyone too if they go to BD1N.
Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
Any reports of the hardness they're getting from the BD1N?
Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
There was talk in the past about the Polestar/Alcyone getting switched, but they aren’t as popular of models so I’m unsure they would get the switch. I recently became very interested in them though, so I hope they do see the switch.

Re: What knives have made the change to BD1N?
I heard it changed over. I wasn’t looking for BD1N specifically. I just wanted a manix 2 LW because I gave my old one away. It was a pleasant surprise.
