Spyderhawk Salt to be discontinued

[bchan]

According to this thread in Bladeforums (http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showt ... inued-List) the Spyderhawk Salt will be discontinued.

[HotSoup]

I'm quite sure only the serrated version is being disco'd, no?

edit: Nope, they both are being discontinued.

They are great knives!

I had a PE version last year, dyed the handle black. It looked great.

[bchan]

Yes, they are great knives! Time to get a couple for backups.

Why is it that breaking news on Spyderco is often first on bladeforum ? :confused:

Just thought i would point this out.... The discontinued list is just a few threads below this one. The OP ( Spyderco employee ) posted the list here on friday and shortly after posted it on bladeforums. Its not too common to see news on bladeforums first.

If I`m not mistaken the spyderhawk was intended to be sprint run and not for full production.

It wasn't. Check the timestamps on Dan's posts. On 12/2 he posted it on this forum at 11:22am Eastern time and on the BF Spyderco forum at 11:27am Eastern time.

They mentioned the yellow handle model was being discoed maybe there's a BA k handle model in the works or maybe a VG 10 model. I can dream anyway. Really wish I had the money to buy a spare se model

[skatenut]

Glad I have the PE and SE model. Not that I need them, but...
I'm sure you will understand. :)

Love hawkbills.

Just got one for $58. Not sure if that's a steal but was a good enough price for me.

[bh49]

it is a good price

:confused: I don't get it :confused: :confused: Two dealers I've recently talked to told me that they had sold several of the H-1 Spyderhawks.

Now if they're going back to making them in VG-10 again I can sort of understand it. But to whack a great Salt Series model from the line up there must be a valid reason. Because if the Harpy continues to be a steady seller I'm sure that the Spyderhawk would be as well.

They must just be thinking about selling the Spyderhawk in another blade steel I hope Because the Salt Series needs a Powerhouse Hawkbill to make the series available in a wide array of variants.

Just got my paycheck yesterday. I will be getting at least one of each variant. Wasn't counting on that one Man oh man the "holiday blues can really get to you at times :rolleyes:

like an H1 Superhawk :rolleyes:

[JD Spydo]

like an H1 Superhawk :rolleyes:

Hey Brother I could dig an H-1 Superhawk for sure>> But only if they would make it available in Spyderedge.

To me that was a crime not to make the original Superhawk available in SE :confused:

My advice to everyone here listening to the words on this thread is to immediately get both variants of the H-1 Spyderhawk and to also get a set of the 701 Profiles. this just ain't right because my knife world is truly coming unraveled at this point :rolleyes: :D

spyderco, superhawk shape, high hollow, ti liners...were willing to pay :rolleyes:

[Finedges]

Guilty of ordering one when I heard the discontinued news.

[Lord vader]

It`s a good thing I already have mine.I`m not trying to make anyone feel bad, and In case my buddy JD Spydo is reading this. :cool:

[bh49]

All these years I am debating with myself if i need one. And if yes, which one PE or SE. May both. I need to get soon, very soon. It is too bad that I missed deal on Black Friday at GPK.

YES!!! Lord Vader :rolleyes: :D I am reading this. It kind of reminds me of an old Country & Western Song my dad used to play>> it was entitled "RUB it IN, RUB IT IN :eek:

Yeah dude you're a member of the "I GOT MINE CLUB" aren't you :rolleyes: :D

Don't worry ol' buddy I'm getting my postal money order ready today. Maybe it's GOD's way of equiping me with an arsenal of Super-Hawkbills for a rainy day yet to come.

Yes there definitely is a Silver Lining inside this sudden dark cloud :cool:

But again if they are going to do the Spyderhawk in VG-10 again or maybe even make them available in one of the Super-Steels then I'll be able to forgive them. They just can't in good conscience whack the Spyderhawk from the line up :eek: Unless they might have a new Super Hawkbill in the pipeline. Maybe it's time to start another big Hawkbill thread :rolleyes:
