Possible DLT exclusive Smock??

#1

Post by TkoK83Spy »

I was just eating lunch and saw KeithKevinKen's video on the K390 releases. I was looking at the comments and saw someone posted randomly that they heard DLT would be releasing the Smock with red scales and M390. Has anybody else seen or heard anything about that?

Seems odd IF it's true, because KnifeJoy did it in 20CV already and that's the only other Smock exclusive to date.

M390 is what that person wrote. Which seems strange anyways because DLT typically uses 20CV when that family of steels is involved.

Both of the red PM2 and Para 3 DLT Exclusives were in M390

I can believe it. DLT has used M390 as well as 20CV in the past, so it doesn't seem too out of the ordinary.

Also, just went and checked the comment you were referencing and it sounds legitimate to me. Didn't mention any dates though, so it's obviously anyone's guess when we'll see it.

I believe it too. I have the DLT M390 PM2 & Para 3 LW. Smock doesn't surprise me. I assume it'll be red G10. I wonder if they'll be smooth or peel-ply? I probably won't buy this one regardless. Since I have the 20CV Smock and more than my share of red handled knives. Sounds like a nice one though

I've been waiting to try the smock and something with red g10... Hmm might try this one... Although the smock blade does look like snag-city to me

It definitely is if you're not paying attention while on a slicing rampage. I've done it a few times, you come to an abrupt halt haha. Regardless, it's still a pretty fun and cool knife though.

Yeah it's not something I'd grab if I was going to do a lot of cutting. It's more of a novelty knife for me. It's great for opening up packages and other light cutting chores. I'm glad I have one but it's not a model I'll likely buy a bunch of different versions of.

Dang, I was hoping they'd do a dlc cru-ple Smock! Red and m390 is a great combo, which I would have bought had I not gotten the 20cv one. But hopefully it'll still do well for them - plenty of people passed on the Knifejoy one because of the smooth g10. Fingers crossed this one flies off the shelf and they'll consider a cru-ple one, too.

Same thought I had. I'm not big on the Smock. But, anything to get more purple >:)

I almost bought the Smock but the store I went to didn’t have a new one so I passed. Then I got side tracked and bought other knives. I would love it in red though.

Same here... It's a good knife... they hit the target but they just didn't hit the bullseye.

Totally agree. It's unique enough to keep around, but not the most ideal for edc. Especially for myself, working in a warehouse. It's a heck of a slicer for me though, it gets sticky sharp right off the browns.

Thirded. I'll buy pretty much anything in that DLC Cru-ple combo. There's about 100 models I'd rather have in that combo first though. :rolleyes:

Haha that was the one that came to my mind, when I was replying originally.

Haha. Great minds, eh?
