I've checked 12 sites, including these and no one has any.

The Knifeworks link shows in stock for me. Not sure why it's not working on your end. :confused:
It let me add to cart and go to checkout.

My mistake, got one ordered from knifeworks.
Looks like there may only be 2 left in stock there now.

Incidentally, is this the first true satin-ground Maxamet we've seen from Spyderco? All the other ones were polished stonewash.

Have to admit, I still see my Sage 2 whenever I see this Maxamet version lol.

Just ordered mine from Northwestknives. I’m glad it was offered in the Sage line as it’s my favorite and I just wasn’t going to buy a knife I don’t like just to try the maxamet out. Really looking forward to trying it out and seeing for myself if it lives up to the hype.

PM2, PM3, Manix, Native 5 have a light stonewash, maybe helping a bit considering it's not a stainless steel
This does not seem to be the case for the Sage
Is this aesthetic, is it a cost reduction measure, is it to keep consistence with the Sage line, just asking...

Mine came in today.
Screws are tight, blade perfectly centered, lockup solid, no play, and I think the best sharpened edge of any new knife so far. No sharp edges or points on scales or inside of liners. The opening hole has a slight bite, but not sharp. Grind and bevels look perfect. The g10 texture is very shallow, fine, and grippy. I suspect it will wear down fast with my use, but that's ok.
I prefer the polish stonewash like golden models, but this satin is barely detectable when running a fingernail across it. I think it will age well.

It all looks perfect to me... going to be a hard decision whether to modify it or not.

10 years ago I was telling people we would never see a production knife in a steel like this, especially a folder. I was wrong of course.

Many thanks. I feel the pleasure is all mine, Sir.
