That knife is going to be a big hit. Congrats on your PO.

I'm surprised and a little crestfallen that the Damascus Stretch Sprint isn't featured. I thought it was supposed to be out later this month....

Just wanted to assure many of the newcomers that Spyderco has, in the past, released plenty of sprint run knives not featured in the Spyderco catalog or mid-year supplement. If a particular sprint run was omitted from the update, don't fret, as it could very likely show up anyway! For example, last year's mid-year supplement did not feature the carbon fiber Dodo, yet it came out that November. So there is still hope that some of these other upcoming sprint runs will get released before the year is out.

I finally found the Domino with the production scales in the Award Nominee case at the middle of the show floor. The composite CF scales look *amazing*. Like some of the other twills and weaves, they look three dimensional. It makes for an understated and classy package.

When I handled the Domino at the booth (I had my hands on it for about 10 minutes over two days), I had the same gut reaction I had when I first held the Sage. It just felt "right" in hand. Natural. Comfortable. It felt more compact that it was. It is supremely functional. I WANT ONE OF THESE.

The serrata looks like a great fixed blade knife for the outdoors. Cant wait to see that one released.

Is it about the same size as the Sage and have similar ergos? From your description you are making me really WANT ONE OF THESE. :)

This knife is very intriguing to me. Can't wait to see one.

I really liked the original dimensions given for the Domino, more Manix like, but I still pre-ordered anyway. The more I get into knives the more I prefer 3.5" to 3" The price is about $10 more than I thought, but that's ok. It will be a while before it comes out, probably early 2014.

Domino is high on my must have list. The Superblue Delica is right behind it. My impulse buy of the show was a Orange Pingo. Lots of cool looking prototypes, I just hoped they are spaced out enough so I can raise the cash.

Has anyone taken a look at the price for a stepped titanium Chaparral. I remember Wouter saying
that he thought that it would be price, but wow. It's a sweet knife though.

Yeah, I should have posted the price, sorry and thanks Tap78.

You're gonna need a bigger credit card. Hopefully that is a misprint.

The karahawk is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen. Bet it's functional as all **** though! The Serrata is the definition of simplistic beauty. The Domino is very high on my list

I'll have to see if anyone grinds the flipper nub off the Domino and how it works as a normal knife. It looks promising as that.

The lock side and the liner are both titanium. It felt very light weight in hand. The version in the case at the show didn't have a CF scale - but had a blue twill scale instead. Eric said that it was just an experiment, and the production model would have a black CF composite. The action was superb. Good detent to hold it closed. When you press the flipper, it takes a little pressure to release it, but when it does release, it glides smoothly open. Very nice.

I am sold.

All that titanium sounds expensive. >.<

Since the Cruware Military is postponed and not a single sprint in the Supplement is made in Golden they are obviously still trying to catch up with demand for USA Spydies.

I need another fixed blade like a hole in the head but the Serrata is calling to me. The blade/edge dimensions are wrong in the Supplement but whatever the actual length it's a little close to the Temp 2 so justifying the purchase is that much harder. I assume that the description of the G-10 being skeletonized means that the interior is dimpled.

Less expensive than the Southard by almost 20% per KC's prices.

The description is a tad confusing to me, as the scales are Black Linen Micarta, and only the steel handle part is skeletonised...

Like this...

Not sure if that'll be possible with the way the flipper doubles as a part of the choil. The more I read about this knife, the more it's going to have to be handled before I pull the trigger, especially for the price. It has some steep competition for me with the Para/Manix/Yojimbo 2's.
