Shaman Rex45 Sprint - General Discussion & Support thread - (not alerts)

The notifications are not guaranteed. Like today I didn't get an alert, I just stumbled by here and seen it was in stock, and it was there for several minutes, longer than normal.

Yeah I wouldn't give up. I mean I grabbed one last week but came across another one today. I obvs didn't but it but just so you know they are out there. Just keep up with your notifications and make sure you subscribe to this thread.

They were in stock at bhq for at least 2 hours.

In person, it is a nice pumpkin color!

I agree! It's much different than the frn or regular G10 scales. I'm digging it!

Can we get some more piks of the burnt orange with other models? I would like to see the difference.

[SpyderGrill]

Nice, Thank you! I have a Native 5 G10 and a Manix G10,, i wondered how the Shaman color compared

[Signalman1]

Finally I got a Shaman Rex 45 coming.

Somehow I’ve been striking out with all the alerts on this one.

Thanks for the photos bbturbodad.

This is my first Shaman - so I didn't know if I'd hang on to this one or not, but I took it out of the box and gave it one look and a flick before it went in my pocket. Love it! The smooth G10 is great, but the edges are almost as sharp as the blade. Sure wish they'd smooth them out a bit. That'd be my only real gripe.

Hope that helps!

I received mine today, from the pics I've seen I was hoping it would be a match for the original Rex45 Sprint, like the Manix2 or Lil' Native are, but it's sorta in between the FRN and the first Sprint . . .

I think its because its smooth g10.

It takes less than a minute with some 1200 or 600 grit wet/dry silicon carbide paper to "dehorn" the edges.

Huh, that had not occurred to me, I wouldn't think it would change the colour that much but it's the only smooth G10 of the lot, so I suppose it's as good an answer as any.

Colour aside, fit and finish are great, action is perfect, excellent edge out of the box, just stropped it and it's on point, and I almost always sharpen any knife first thing.

That’s what I’m planning on doing, just wish they’d do it for me

'Tis a great addition to the family...

[Eric*the*Red]

Awesome collection JMM. I like that it is balanced
(4 DLC and 4 Satin). It soothes my OCD. lol

But what if he lined them up alternating dlc and satin for each knife!?!?

A very nice lineup, JMM!
Thank you for sharing this picture with us.

I just wish you would have backed the camera up some. The Cruwear/Micarta on the far-right. Got cut-off. We can't see it in this picture.

Thanks for this pic, JMM.

I see three clips, that I have not tried yet.
From left to right. #2, #4, and #7.
If you would please, and when you have a spare moment. Send me a PM with details on those. I'd love to give them a try.
