Rhino
Re: Rhino
Any news? or at least rumors? I need one for my nephew soon. It is almost Christmas.
Michael,
You have to do something about this. If Spyderco cannot deliver, you have to start producing customs. I need XHP 2 mm FFG stock blade. Bolsters and stag please. I remember that you did a good job on stag for your father in law :)

Re: Rhino
With it's modest size and attractive price point it would be great if this one dropped before christmas. I would need a couple for gifts myself.

A digi-camo like on the pm2 on the Rhino would be so awesome...Cogito wrote:Can you imagine how cool the sprint runs on this model would be? Burnt Orange G10, digital camo G10, DLC blade. . . etc!
OMG this model has so much potential.

Re: Rhino
Hello friends,
Thank you for the kind words. In talking with Spyderco recently, it sounds like we are getting closer to seeing the Rhino on the market. I too cannot wait to see the Rhino in person. I have a feeling it will be worth the wait. :)
Kind regards,
Michael

Michael,
Good to see you back, especially as a barer of the good news. You I need two and I need them way before Christmas :)

Re: Rhino
Glad to hear it's still on the way! Spyderco is really ending 2016 and starting 2017 on a high note with all the great models lately.
Re: Rhino
Compelled to echo all that Dan said. Fine Christmas gift, for sure.Besides the unique design, no doubt a wee bit of great karma will have rubbed off on every Rhino as well.farnorthdan wrote:Hi Michael, haven't seen you post up for a while, hope all is well in your world friend :)SpyderNut wrote:Hello friends,

Re: Rhino
I wonder if the delay has anything to do with the announcement of the PM3. A Rhino, PM3, and Sage 5 would be three ~3" blades with a compression lock in the last several months. Maybe they're trying to not oversaturate the market with that form factor.

Thank you, sir, I really appreciate that. I am doing well and still breathing. :)
I am also quite hopeful that we'll see the Rhino before the end of the year--if not by Christmas. That would make my Christmas a very merry one indeed. :)

Your kind words made me smile. Thank you for that, my friend. :)
Thank you, Liquid Cobra and Clovisc. I can't wait to hear your feedback after the Rhino arrives. :)Liquid Cobra wrote:Don't forget FFG!clovisc wrote:This knife will be the best ever gateway drug to Spyderco; FFG, compression lock, FFG, great steel, unique trailing point, and a NKP-friendly size.
That is an interesting point, Mr. Danger. I never thought of it in that way before. On a side note, I am very much looking forward to the PM3. I already have a feeling it is going to be on my short-list whenever it arrives. :)Mr Danger wrote:I wonder if the delay has anything to do with the announcement of the PM3.

Re: Rhino
It looks we will not be getting Rhinos in 2016
Any updates? Gossips? Rumors?
