Condolences for your missed deals

[Toucan]

I got all the black friday deals I wanted but completely missed the online seconds sale.

I ended up with a DLC Yojumbo and yellow Pacific Salt in the mail. Should be here today!

Where had the yellow pac salts? That was one I definitely woulda sprung for (been one of those "bucket list" knives for me), but I didn't see it anywhere.

I know the feeling of missing out on a rare model.

I found a Tropen for a good price on KSF, but I slept on it as I wanted to see what deals were available at other retailers. I figured that no one else would be interested in the Tropen because of the exposed blade issue. Surprise, surprise, when I checked back the next day it was OOS.

Hey Mikey. KnifeCenter has the Tropen in stock and on sale for $209.95 right now.

Personally, I had hoped to see the wharncliffe PM2 go on sale.

Thanks for the heads up. Tempting, but my wallet is already begging for mercy lol

If the wharnie PM2 stays in stock until next year, maybe CS will lower the price as they did with the XHP satin Native Chief.

If you're still looking, National Knives has the yellow PE in stock, discounted a bit at $108 if you have an account:

I know these aren't the BF deals, but if you're really looking for one these are some of the stores I stumbled upon during the weekend when I was searching for discounted H1 Salts, there might be more selling yellow Pacs.

Knivesshipfree was the MVP (MVR?) for sales this season. I kept a few tabs open all weekend and really ruminated on a couple of knives. Ultimately, I decided to pass on all of them. But it hurt. $107 for a Spy27 Manix and the 90-something dollar LC200N Pac Salt were the ones that almost got me.

They really were. I thought I was getting a killer deal on a Drunken for $405 shipped. Then KSF lists the Drunken later that day for $355 . I still got a dope knife at a good price, but dang that one stung quite a bit.

I'm tickled with the rest of the prices I got throughout the holiday weekend.
