Hi everyone,
I remember reading there was going to be a sample of these at the Shot show. Hope I'm getting this right, but isn't it going on now? If so, has anyone got to handle the CF ZDP Stretch?
I bought a CF BG-42 Military and I absolutely love it, except one thing, it's to big for my small hands. How does the Stretch compare? I know it's a smaller knife, so I was thinking it might fit better, and I love Spyderco's grippy CF.
Thanks!
Roger

I don't recall Sal saying anything about having samples of the StretchII at SHOT. He did say he was carrying one himself, though. I guess someone could try picking his pocket :D
He also said it was a little longer (3 mm IIRC) than the original. Since I've never handled one of the originals, that doesn't mean anything to me, but it might to you.

I don't believe in safe queens, only in pre-need replacements.
It's a nice looking knive, and CF and ZDP can only make it better. He mentioned it'd be at shot in this thread:yablanowitz wrote:I don't recall Sal saying anything about having samples of the StretchII at SHOT. He did say he was carrying one himself, though.

but that was awhile ago. Ah well, as with all good things, you can only wait!

Yeah, I reviewed the casual bombshell thread, and there were a couple of references to samples for the SHOT show, but I read his post about EDCing one a lot more recently, so I remembered it. :o
It also sounded like he was still trying to shave a few more grams off before the design was final. Still looking forward to this one.
