Not showing in stock at the SFO yet but I'm sure it will be any day now. Release of the year for me (until they reveal the swayback this fall :p ???)

I saw the notification and was seriously considering it, but I can't afford it AND the Rex Lil Native...

I think the Watu will lose that battle

Not sure if I want to pick this one up right away or keep waiting for the Rex45 Lil Native Sprint. Definitely gotta grab one of these at some point though!

I'm thinking the same thing right now. :D I think I'll prioritize the sprint run over the regular production model for the time being.

Yep, that's basically it.

I also have a strong desire to get a Lil' Temp 3, but again, for $10 less I get the LN...

The worst part is having the money to buy all of them, but having to be responsible and keep a large portion of my assets liquid, in these wonderful times. Just in case!

It's showing in stock now at the SFO. Since I don't get that sweet OpFocus discount, I'll be waiting for my usual dealers to get it at MAP. Can't wait to start seeing photos of this in the wild though (hint hint).

Good looking out, thank you. I've ordered one, and I'll be sure to get some pictures up once it arrives. :D

Thanks for the heads up. I was too slow, hoping I can grab this at DLT or knife center to get bonus points, but honestly I'm very excited (and a little surprised) that this sold so quick! Would love to get a Sprint on this guy, so strong sales are my best friend :D

What blade and handle material would you want for a sprint? I'm pretty excited to get such thin blade stock with a FFG in 20CV from Spyderco.
