I got one, but I don't fish. I'm sure there will be plenty of other uses for it.

Got one. I was tempted to pick up a second but I figure it's better to let the goodness spread as far as possible. Thanks, Spyderco!

Enjoying the new H1 Catcherman that just arrived at my house about 10 minutes ago. Toxic green is an understatement... I love it. Looks and feels really nice. I believe there is sufficient blade flex for the initial take down of a trout. Very sharp blade!

Posted this in another thread, but just in case...here's a really quick preview/overview of the USN Catcherman. I'm just about dead from two days of post-Irene cleanup so apologies if I've missed anything. The blade does have a surprising amount of flex due to the relatively thin bladestock (which is what you'd want for a filet knife in any case). Many thanks to Sal and USN for a truly unique and interesting knife! :spyder:

I picked up one yesterday when they hit the store. I was thinking of getting a second but thought someone else may really want one, not to mention I have my sights on plenty of others just around the corner. But if they stick around any longer who knows...

I never got an e-mail and the release managed to catch me with my financial pants down. Totally bummed as my Dad and Grandfather would love this knife for their regular fishing expeditions.

I believe they are being shipped via UPS - that might explain why it's not in the USPS system ;)

having sold and shipped many packages using usps I can say that they are usually very good at delivery times. just not soo much with updating the tracking. I actually prefer them to ups due to the fact that they put smaller packages in my secure/locked mailbox and if it's larger I get a doorbell with someone waiting for me as opposed to leaving it at my door, like ups would do. luckily, I have good neighbors and haven't had anyting stolen...yet.

patience is a virtue...unless it's a Spyderco knife you're waiting for.

Ordered but not yet received, of course. I do not like to see these limited sprints on "the bay" either. But, it's America after all; still a (relatively) free country.
