Another great job, the PM2 LW in 15V definitely caught my eye. It's also nice to see more REX-121, I guess Sal bought everything they had before it was too late.

Hi WilliamMunny,

Actually, it was Eric that had the foresight to buy everything before it was too late.

The nut don't fall far from the tree. Thank Eric for us, Sal.

This is an amazing Reveal. I'm only hoping that the new 15V Sprints will continue to be ~1200 units, and spaced out so I don't have to move to a 100% Ramen Noodle diet.

New Ed? Yes, please and thank you!

The PM2 LW will sell like hot cakes. Can a LW Magnacut Salt in yellow FRN be far behind?

Wow, just wow.

The difference is subtle but there is a difference. The traditional Chaparral blade shape has more of a "bullnose" than shown on the Rex 121 version. The Rex 121 model has a more acute leaf shaped blade, omitting that "bullnose" shape.
Thanks, I totally see it now.

I think: Being so light it will basically be constructed like the Para 3 LW. So no liners resp. only very minimal...
Top three going by pocket-time (update October 25):
- EDC: Endela SE (K390). Endela SE (VG10), Manix 2 LW (REX45)
- Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 2 SE (LC200N), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1)

The 15V Sprints were announced to be at 5,000 pieces from here on. Only the Manix 2, PM2, and Shaman were at 1200.

I am very very interested to see a PM2 lightweight taken apart.
One washer or two or even none?
One liner or two or none other than the locking leaf?
I wonder if it has two washers and two shorter liners kinda like a Military 1?

Correct! And I knew that, just had a brain misfire.

5k units means we don't have to spend a morning competing for drops. I remember the scramble for the first 3 models, and it was not fun.

And here's hoping that Eric scored enough 15V to eventually get to all Golden Models. The Mannix 2 XL and Bodacious really deserve this steel. UKPK would be sweet, too!

I wonder if it's too soon to wonder about a Charisma in 15V. :thinking :cheap-sunglasses 15V in 1.2mm bladestock might out cut a lightsaber.

The Retract looks interesting. 9cr & PRC made so affordable enough to use hard.

Now this was interesting.
Only the Charisma is a certain, but there's a couple of really big wants in there too.

Didn't even occur to me, but, yeah, that would be insane! I'll be grabbing the Charisma on the debut, and I think it will be a popular model. Steel variants will be certain, so maybe they will have enough 15V to do it. I hope so, but I suspect the proven models like the Bodacious will go first.

Finally, the PM2 lightweight. I was afraid the PM2 Salt would be it. It's amazing. I've been waiting for it for such a long time. I hope it kept the stepped pivot. Would have been cool in magnacut or s45vn...

The Charisma will be a day one purchase when it hits these shores. It’s just the kind of knife I’ve been eagerly waiting for from Spyderco.

The Rex Chap and black U.K. also make a strong cases for themselves, but it’s mainly all about the Charisma for me.

Does anyone know where a definitive price list is for the knives of this reveal?

I've already ordered the Chaparral in REX121 (I wish it was a LW, but alas), and plan on picking up the Charisma and Retract (especially excited this got 9Cr treatment over 8Cr) at some point in the near future, and possibly the Meerkat as well.

cool reveal, but nothing i can't live without this time. i'm still waiting for a black manix salt lw and a black stretch 2 xl salt.

the retract will make a great camp/outdoor folder and i'd absolutely snag it if i didn't have other knives with a similar design already. i still may grab one anyway since i don't have any schempp blades in my collection.

I'm getting the blade and pink Lil Native. I wish it came in S30V though.

I'd be more excited about the Retract if it was not made in China, but I may still get one since it's affordable.

I'm glad that the Meerkat has a PD#1 sprint, but I'm still waiting for the Spy27 variant to drop.
