Ahhhh, I should clarify. Of the four or five I plan on getting, one will be for me and the others for friends and family who saw my S90V mule that I built handles for and wanted one, but were put off by the $100 price tag (knife and handle materials). But at $40 (completed), I can afford to gift them to my friends and family. So no hording here! Just some good ol' fashioned sharing of a one-of-a-kind, built just for them, hopefully done by Christmas gift.Peter1960 wrote:Pardon mates, what is the sense of hoarding Mules ... the "cheap price of the MT05P?
I understand if somebody would need a second piece as backup, but 3/4/5 or even more from a limited production quantity for one person :confused:
Ok, you can tell me that you want to gift the knives. But nobody wrote that.

To Spyderco : I suggest reconsidering a short-time knife number limit (1 week for example, where you can only purchase 2 or 3 knives ?)
As much as I'd like to order more than 2 or 3, I would like to be sure to be able to order at least 2.
I think that a $20 Spyderco fixed blade will certainly attract more people than the previous MT knives, and will certainly have at least the same success towards regular MT buyers.
The forum knife has been a recent experience of what I'm talking about, even if a lot of factors are different for the MT05.

We're not yet sure what to do with them. It seems that they are all pretty hard, 65-66. The hardness worked on the folders but not on the fixed blades. Too much mass, we think.Mr.Sparkitle wrote: any idea when the zdp ones will be back on the market?
There have been some that have asked for the hard blades as they are. We are trying to find an effective way to reduce the Rc.

I know a lot of people like small fixed blades (like the RAT Izula) for their BOB/go-bag, vehicle glovebox, etc.Peter1960 wrote:Pardon mates, what is the sense of hoarding Mules ... the "cheap price of the MT05P?

My first thought was that I might pick up 3-4 of these for that sort of use. At $20 each, it won't be a lot of money tied up in a knife that will only get rarely used.
