Glad to see this one didn't sell out immediately. Well done Spyderco and BHQ. Congrats to everyone that got one. Doesn't seem like this will be a flipper's paradise.
On sale 12pm EST, sold out around 5:30pm EST

So this one took how long? A work day? When did they go live?
Either way I snagged one. Every part of it that isnt snot green is blacked out. It will definitely stand out compared to most of what I have. Now I just gotta see how those rex45 sprints go down.
They went live/became available at precisely 9am PST / 10am MT

Well it does match my native 5. Giving the shaman another chance to put a spell on me. Pretty expensive considering simple design and materials used.

I managed to snag one on my lunch break, really excited for everyone that wanted and got one.
They lasted a LOT longer than i anticipated. I actually planned my lunch break around the sale just because I remember how quickly the cru-carta sold out. Spyderco and BladeHQ nailed this one. Thank you guys

Still an incredible sell out time when you think about about it. But glad it wasn't gone in 5 minutes. 5 hours is much more reasonable.

I started collecting this configuration from the first Jade/DLC offering (Manix), Ive got em all. It’s the only Spyderco line I’ve collected and I’m ready for it to be done. BHQ has definely made money off me, and that’s ok cause I love these knives. I’m glad I was able to nab the Shaman. I’d guess the Dodo DLC will be coming at some point, but I’ll be happy to see this series come to an end.

It's still available just shy of two hours... the email I got from BHQ last week said they ordered allot more this time than their first Shaman Exclusive run, so I'd wager that has allot to do with it lingering much longer than last round. I like M4, I don't love it, but it is good steel in my experience, not super difficult to get reasonably sharp, I have the DLC M4 Manix2 and it's been a solid performer for me... Has anyone heard anything about St. Nick's (or anyone else) doing more 4V?
St Nick's has been hinting at a PM2 being next for a while now, haven't seen any 100% confirms or any ETA's though.
Does seem like the bigger boys have already started going larger on Sprint orders, DLT para 3 lw m390 also lasted hours, and also allowed 2 per person, and are still generally priced around cost when sold on the secondary. My guess is we'll continue to see smaller runs with high competition/secondary prices and poor launches for smaller companies, at least for the near future, but it is very nice to see the money going to Spyderco and dealers and flatten out the secondary market on this one.
Not to derail the thread, but on the topic of Exclusive PM2's from St. Nicks, the pics for the new PM2 Exclusive from REC look fantastic, I *REALLY* hope both the REC and St. Nicks Exclusive drops can have anything remotely approaching the volume (or time/duration) that this drop had, I do realize both of them combined are not half the size of BHQ, but if they had the quantity, I would expect the demand for either of them would be as high as the demand for the BHQ DLC Shaman today....

USPS tracking says I should get mine no later than Saturday 8pm, based on where it is I think it may come tomorrow.... I had my order complete within the first 5 minutes of the drop...

Got mine today with regular free shipping. Everything looks good on mine: centered up when closed (though I don't find exact centering to be anything that bothers me); nice, even edge; blade swings open easily; and all the finishing seems nice and smooth.

Ok well I gave it at least 400 Mississippi's and they were still in stock so I guess I'm getting one. I previously bought the KnifeJoker Shaman as a replacement camp knife for one of my pm2's but the Shaman has really grown on me lately.
