SS K390 Stretch Anticpation Thread

[Catamount123]

Who else is eagerly awaiting this one?

[MFlovejp]

I am but I keep getting sidetracked by other stuff that pops up haha. I’m glad it’ll be production and not some sprint I have to scramble after. I just ordered a drop point Moran that might change how I’m approaching this hunting season, which I’d originally planned to include the K390 Stretch. I’ll definitely be picking one up eventually.

If it were to come out in the normal curved spine Stretch blade shape, but between the straight spine and me not liking the Stretch 2 as much as the original FRN Stretch (Which is possibly my favorite folding knife pattern)... eh, I might pass.

Still waiting patiently. Only spydie on my absolutely must buy list this year.

[Cambertree]

My most anticipated model since it was announced.

I’ll be disappointed if there’s no drop point version though.

I use my HAP40 one often, in preference to a fixed blade while hunting, and the K390 will be even a bit better for those tasks.

Got some custom contoured desert ironwood scales patiently waiting...

I'm very patiently waiting and also home they eventually do a drop point version. Cambertree I'll bet those scales are stunning. Please post the when finished product when it all comes together.

Still checking daily on Bladeforums and here.

I sure will, Bemo. :)

The desert ironwood scales have a nice straight striped grain to them. I specified a dark red G10 backspacer for better structural integrity.

Of the German shops I am in touch with has availability date set to 16th of April (I asked about the knife week or two ago and they quoted this date and then updated their webpage)

I got a feeling it’s still a ways off.. but we’ll see.

I've been at the edge of my seat for this one since it was announced. Can it happen a little sooner, please?
