Yes, two plus the MT19 minus the discount came to $170.

I tried joining there awhile ago and had issues. It did not allow me to because it didn't like any of my email addresses for some reason, and I tried 4 of them, two of which I've used for nearly 2 decades now, lol.

[GoldenSpydie]

Interesting. I had no problems joining... :confused:

[Lugi]

Yeah...need that code and that knife, tried to join that site...and it aint letting me.

Hi, I was able to join the USN yesterday and they approved my account this morning. You have to use an email address that's not from one of the big online providers like Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc, you need to use an address from your ISP (if you have one) like Comcast, TWC, Charter or what have you. You need to provide one you have direct access to since USN will then send you a registration verification email with a link to finish your registration (they will then approve you or not on their own schedule). Hope that helps. There's been lots posted recently about not just posting their discount code on this forum, and I must say I have to agree with those folks (so please don't ask me for the code! ).

With that said, snagged one of each blade style today. The SE blade is destined for a grey G10 Jester frame that's just been itching to hold a DLC hawkbill H1 SE blade! It's going to be one beast of a keychain knife! Cheers and huge kudos/thanks to the USN for making these babies happen, Radioactive :)

[Lugi]

Oh yeah....thanks to you know who!!!!!
I just ordered that bad boy...in the SE!

[bearfacedkiller]

Couldn't resist. I love black and yellow together and black and toxic green is just a little too zombie operator operating zombie like for me.

Oh my, I like that Darby, I may just have to try that with one of my SE.

[bearfacedkiller]

Thanks! I have just always loved black and yellow together. Now it is my killer bee. Bzzz...

[SpeedHoles]

Slick! I like that much better.

[NaturalMystic]

I was following that USN thread from day one, can't believe where the time's gone but I'm glad I've finally got one of each on the way. The $25 shipping to Canada was a bit high though.

[Lugi]

Nice...its funny you did that I was telling the wife how much better it would be to switch the handles.

Great job Darby, but I still love the green: lime green, dark green ......
Will PE see more use than SE or no chance? What do you think?

[bearfacedkiller]

I got the regular SE version back before Christmas for super cheap ( $20 from Red's gear :D ) and have had it in my watch pocket ever since then and love it. I plan on carrying both of them a lot and definitely got this USN exclusive as a user to try out PE. In general I prefer PE far more than SE but this little hawkbill has been kind of an exception. I keep repeating this but I call it my watch pocket chainsaw.

I guess only time will tell which one gets more carry. :)

[farnorthdan]

Well as usual I have zero will power, went ahead and ordered 2 more last night, just couldnt resist maxing out on this one. I have a feeling this one is going to be highly sought after down the road.

[gbelleh]

That yellow and black one is giving me ideas of doing a blade swap with my orange Ladybug...

I think you can be excused Dan, these knives have a high coolness factor. Just hope you don't get into trouble with the Mrs. :D

I'd really like to get the serrated one but I must be strong and save for a Mule this year :)
