That Enuff 2 is very appealing. Especially with the K390. Preorder placed. I guess this shall be my first fixed blade.
I trust those scales are removable and not pinned?
I had an Enuff: Scales were screwed and so removable, don't think this will change with the "2".
But if it comes to ergos: For me no need to switch to different scales, the Enuff feels great in hand as it is!!
Still: Of course something like Micarta might be nice or you're just thinking about being able to check that K390 under the scales or rust.

How often do people really need a backup? Or is it to allow them to not pocket princess a knife and have 1 they can?
I genuinely buy backups to replace users but all of my knives are users, and I work outdoors using knives all day for my profession. Rather frustratingly all of my favourite work knives are sprints, so once they’re worn out they’re not easily replaced. I hope this year will be a good one for sprints - I would be so pleased to pick up a few new Millie 2 in 4V, k390 or Magnacut. If it could be a tanto blade then I really would buy the limit - they’re the most fantastic tools.

I just really want to play with some 15v, since some of Shawn's videos got me hyped on high performance steels and edge geometry in the first place back in the day. His logo on the blade is so rad for Spyderco to do.
That being said, the scramble for sprint runs is hectic and stressful and usually unless something is decently available I try to forget about it. And I already have enough pm2s and one shaman, which is really too thick in the edge for me.
If they would make 15v a production steel like they did with maxamet that would be a sweet thing for us nerds.
I have yet to own and carry a native 5, that would be my buy in 15v if they did it in the brown g10, I don't care for frn haha.
Took the words out of my mouth. I respect BBB very much as a knifemaker and steel connoisseur, and believe me, aside from Sal and Larrin, BBB is one of the gentlemen that has educated me a lot with regards to edge geometry, carbides, sharpening, and other esoteric knowledge on metallurgy. It would be an honor to own one of his 15v heat treated pieces.
But to be honest, the way sprint runs work especially for this steel really burnt out a lot of knife afis who just wanted to try how 15v performs. It's really not fun chasing around for the umpteenth time only to see the next dealer sell out in a few minutes or less. Plus with how this knife is being hyped on social media especially Facebook groups, you're competing with literal hordes of people who want this knife just so they can flaunt and post on Facebook and IG.
I can only imagine how much drama, anxiety and stress the Shaman and PM2 sprint drops will bring.
Before I sound like complaining, I know how the sprints and exclusives game work for many years now. And for every knife drop there will be a lot of whining and crying. It's pretty much a cycle.Just putting it out there that these 15v sprints are going to bring out the worst in people, and I won't be actively chasing these ones out. I'll probably try for the Shaman and Mule, but that's about it, unless a 15v Lil Native comes along.
I got a manix on the first day by pure luck, but was unable to nab a second one as a backup. But looking forward to the mule though, I would like the steel in a nice fixed blade. Here’s to hoping that 15V becomes a regular production steel, and that BBB collaborates more with spyderco in the future to fine tune HTs for other steels as well. I am
super stoked just to own a piece of BBB’s handiwork.

I wanted a spare so I could use the first one hard to see it’s capabilities, and not be so sad if I broke it.

Literally as I hit send, I realized I lost my knife. Luckily someone found and gave back after I asked them.
If we spent as much time trying as we do doubting, we might have already accomplished it.
I wonder why KC lists MSRP as 320, does that mean there was an error in the reveal price guide? Spyderco.com still shows MSRP at 240.
I’m sure Spyderco will correct the MSRP of Enuff2 K390 this week or next. There’s no way Enuff2 K390 is priced the same as Enuff2 VG-10.

No, I eagerly await them showing up on the Spyderco website. Truth is, those and the Counter Critters are about the only things in Reveal 12 that I'm interested in.

Our apologies, there was a typo in the system, which led to a typo online and in the price guide. We've updated everything this morning. Thank you for understanding!

There is nothing more important than this one day.

Yep, now the K390 Enuff is listed with 320 USD (instead of 240 before)

Well, technically it was good to go at $240 but I am still in now.
Blade HQ still lists it at $168, and they just reopened their pre-order list. Don't know if they will ultimately honor that price but might be worth jumping on if you are interested.

We're alerting wholesale customers to the mistake as well, so I would anticipate that will change. I hope everyone understands it was an honest mistake and won't hold dealers accountable for something beyond their control.
