But it seems like we are at the point to where you've got to make an effort to find one in stock somewhere with either edge type.resonanzmacher wrote: ↑Fri Nov 04, 2022 7:15 pmThe Northwest page says 16 PE in stock.Buddafucco wrote: ↑Fri Nov 04, 2022 10:05 amPlainEdge:

It would appear that the SE units are selling about even with the PE. Or it would seem so. I'm sure glad I added both edge types to the original request. The SE pattern on this Cruwear Ayoob is a cutter's dream blade. Only the AUS-8, full SE Catcherman has a pattern about as good IMO.
But I would say at this point if anyone still wants a Cruwear Ayoob they better pull the trigger ASAP.
Sal said a while back that they were receiving them in batches. I'm thinking Spyderco is doing their thing and then shipping them as they get them from Japan.
I also still think that a bunch of dealers, that should be getting them, haven't put up either edge type for sale yet.
The real question is, how many more of the SpyderEdge are we going to see? My observation is that the initial shipment was about 50/50 PE vs SE. Then the PlainEdge started showing up again at some places. And now the PE is popping up at more dealers. It's looking like the majority are going to be PE.
I haven't really been searching directly for the Ayoobs for a while. There could be more out there now. I'll try and do a sweep through my dealer list tomorrow.
I really like the PlainEdge but the SpyderEdge just takes it to another level. My replacement SE is due to arrive on Tuesday. I'm excited to have it back in the rotation!
