Can it be 100% confirmed or denied that it's only right handed carry?

I'm pretty sure the bolstered sprint version with the red G-10 used the original curved clip.

The G-10 only version is not a sprint. I believe that the original clip was used on the first run. I'll have to check tomorrow, don't have one here. If the model is successful, we don't have a problem tooling up a new clip that is Left/right for subsequent runs.

Sounds like these are going to ship about the same time as the M4 Military's.
When it rains it pours!
Really looking forward to these two.
May grab an xtra red Persian & convert to white Micarta.
The model that lives in my head..... LOL LOL

I like the Damascus on my Delica's so much, how about using it on the next White Micarta, Damascus, Large Persian Sprint? ;)

I know, I am pushing it here............

Thanks again Sal for the Red Persian Sprint.
Should be an instant classic.

and a group shot...

...am using a larger version of that as my wallpaper right now.

You may have noticed some are drilled for ambi tip down carry. I like that idea, on principle, although perhaps a more appropriate clip could be found...

...and for those who are curious, the wood ones have the regular Persian clip...



Now perhaps Sal will be kind enough to enlighten us as to exactly what the materials are. I know two are "wood" and the other three appear to be dyed "bone" but species info would be nice. :D

I'm not going to say which one is my favorite, but am sure most here know me well enough to figure that out for themselves.

May be you are pushing, but I am in and ready to place pre-order.

are we under the impression this will be out this week? i been checking jess' youtube. (im a hypocrite i know) as much as i dislike him, jess from spydieguys gets new knives early! like first one. then 48hrs later kc has them. so when jess gets them everyone knows the preorders will hit soon. its the "end of sept" so its happening this week or early next week. anyone from spy can confirm shipping of the persian? im dying for some red g10 thats NOT ON A TRAINER!
who excited?!
also i was told the kiwi slipit would be around the same time. plus the preorders were lsited at the same time too. same arrival date too!
