Got it. Just need to wait 2-3 weeks for delivery. Tried to add the Spyderco coin and lapel pin but those can't be shipped internationally?

Is this a no brainer purchase?

Is this the first M4 serrated offering?

If you like the Dodo then yes, you should definitely grab one because it could be many, MANY years before another SE Dodo is released.

Just making sure everybody saw this note: "Due to some unexpected shipping delays, this item will ship within 1-2 business days!"

I really wish that this was stainless, but any Dodo is better than no Dodo at all.

A lot less demand for this one, or a lot bigger run. Still in stock an hour and a half after it went live.

That's what pushed me over the edge. It was brought back from extinction once and it's been 3 years since the last run. As much as I'd like to see a different steel/color and a Caged Ball Bearing upgrade, this may be the last Dodo. Couldn't pass it up.

I picked one up. It will probably be more a collection piece than a user for me, but I'm fine with that. The Dodo is a rare bird. Still showing in stock, by the way.
Because desolate places allow us to breathe. And most people don't even know they're out of breath.

It was a slower seller last time around too. Got one; now I'll have a pair.

Definitely didn't plan to get one, but couldn't resist the FOMO of this rare model with SE M4. Will also be my first reverse S blade shape.

Eric's designs really seem to click with me.

I feel like this one, like their recent M4 Poliwog run, was overpriced for the size of the knife, but I suspect I'll actually use a Dodo, especially a serrated one (I bet it eats cardboard boxes for breakfast!) so sprung for it.

Hopefully, someone will get theirs and post a quick review, before they sell out. I have one of the original blue Dodos in PE and this knife needs to be ground thin like they were. Unfortunately, after receiving the M4 Poliwog, with its relatively thick flat grind, I am less than optimistic.

My gripe has always been the lock. Performance is amazing. Very much like the Karahawk, the leverage you get with a full size handle and a small curved blade is tremendous. A lot of power, and unlike most blades that size, it's quite stout. The CBBL is my favorite Spyderco lock, the uncaged less so. Overall a great design with a lock that could use a small upgrade.

Blew my wad on a very well priced fluted CF Native this week or I’d be all over this. Enjoy guys, you’ve got a good one here.
