Agree 100%.
My excitement for this new steel might just be showing through...
Not un-common with me.........
I have over a dozen Mules in special steels I plan on re-shaping & scale into other usefull designs.
Have had this plan for years. Thought It would be a fun thing to do when I leave my job.
After 30 yrs @ 51 I have 2 weeks to go!
Cant wait. :spyder:
The Hobby is about to get even bigger with me!

I've been buying these since MT01 and I have been less discriminating - have at least one of each. Only bought one of these - wondering - should I buy another...is this the One Blade to Rule Them All???
A question please gents when I brought a Elmax #13 MT 12 & 14 were out iirc or it could've been 11,12,13 .
I though more than one were released at the same time , were these just stock still left in iirc the others were cobalt and cruwear .
So onto the question I really want to know is anyone aware of when # 18 will be out and what steel it would be ?.
I have a very right connection with the # 8 and 18 and want it just for that reason .
I hope there's info out there but idk , and I hope its a SS but not sure If there are any new SS waiting that is special enough for a MT .
Thanks .

Ah yes I remember wondering about that but I forgot thanks so is it likely another one this year ? after they cover 16 or is it just guess work ?.
Thanks Holland .
Still available. Was going to place an order but they charge $15 to AK/HI no matter what the size of the order. I try not to buy from companies that exclude our states from free shipping or charge extra, when it shouldn't cost anything more. So no mules or forum knives for me I guess.

In fairness to Spyderco, they use UPS for all their domestic shipping and I just did a little test. For me to ship a 1 lb. package from here in SC to Sacramento CA via UPS would costs $13.44 For me to ship the same package from here to Fairbanks AK would cost $35.18 and, while I'm sure Spyderco gets better rates than and individual would, I'd bet their UPS charges for AK and HI are still more than $15 higher than those for the "lower 48".
Thanks for the welcome Sal. I have been registered here for awhile and reading the forums for quite awhile longer. I just don't type much. This will be my tenth set of mules. I try not to miss them, as I am a bit of a steel junkie.

The $15 was for USPS shipment. What would the same cost have been via USPS?
Just grabbed two of them. Will be my first mules. Going to paracord wrap one and have some custom scales made up for the other.
