We are close to 280 of 380 out in the wild on the second run.

The first run I sent out about 500 if I remember right in the first run, I will need to check some records. The other hundered I think went to a collectors program and some other places.

Wow, that's about 780 Packages shipped! :eek: You really have done a ton of work on this project. Thanks for the Info on the numbers.

I am really enjoying mine

Thanks,

I know which order it is now. I will follow up with USPS on this and also check on what kind of time range the Netherlands usually has. If it is somehow lost in the mail I will get another one sent to you.

Not sure that's what I meant. :) I meant that Jon put a huge amount of time and effort into the knife, and then put a huge amount of time and effort into making sure everyone got a chance to get one. I know some people thought the process was burdensome, but it was more burdensome for him, and it was an effort to deal with some of the perceived shortcomings of sprint run orders. :spyder:

Roger that. That's what I meant by "hairy." I had heard it was a huge logistics challenge. See JSB's post #83 above. Sorry JNewell, I think you and I speak different dialects of English. You from the far Nor'East, me from, like, totally, SoCal. It's awesome, dude.

Jon (JSB), you did a great job getting my knife to me in the UK. I know I was one of the "awkward ones" as certain things had to be done to ensure safe passage through customs. This meant extra work for you and for that I am extremely grateful.

Thank you.

I received several emails asking me if any more of these where available. It seems that a large number of people think there are none left. We are down to the last 100. I noticed sales dropped and all the ones that have been selling are proceded by a message asking if there are any of these left. I am not sure where the idea that they are all gone came from.

Thanks, Jon. That was great customer service. I received the replacement knife Friday 12/23 and sent back the original. Didn't have a chance to reply before now. The replacement knife closes with one hand. Here are some images of the replacement knife.

This is taken without added illumination. And I didn't charge the glow very much.

looks sweet. This knife grows on me the more I look at it. I might have to pick one up before all the stock is gone. They appear to only have 63 left online, but I know there are some floating around on fleabay for crazy prices. I think Jons listing is the only reasonable one right now.
Just makes it tough when I am after some other hard to find at reasonable price spydies as well. I do need one to play with while my Tan/m4 is getting fixed in Golden. Had some issues with another Sprint.
