I am actually going to pass on this one. Hopefully I will have the funds when the Yo 2 comes around.

It says they are getting 100 on Wed, so that leaves 700 more or so to go.

I'm not a morning person, often have a hard time getting up by that time, but it looks like I'll need to set an alarm or two to make sure I don't miss out on this! Thanks for keeping us up-to-date MCM, I don't have access to FaceBook from work so hadn't seen their announcement yet (I did see they updated the page for it on their web site to include the price, but couldn't actually place it in the cart yet).

getting ready to snipe one @ 8 am tomorrow morning. Manix 2 is a favorite blade shape, and the XL is even better.

Is it strange how they are only getting 100 at a time, or is that how it usually works? Do distr exclusives usually trickle out over a few months or what?

It might depend on where they are made, I imagine knives made overseas it would be cheaper to batch them together for shipment even if they produce 100/month or something like that, but I remember when EDC Forums sponsored the GITD Native 5, Jon received them in batches of somewhere around 100 at a time. Seems like the KnifeWorks green Para2 was a higher quantity up front in initial batch, then they received a few more (or from preorder cancellations?).

Son of a....it is literally going on sale JUST as I take over the bus. If it were an hour earlier, or even 10 minutes...I'd grab one! I want one bad since I had to sell my M2 S90V when times were tough!!

Anyone just buying 1 and want to do me a real solid??

In the same boat...bought a ZT last week and it arrived on Saturday. I'm hoping the remaining batches are a little delayed. My wallet is a little thin right now. :D

I have been waiting a while for this one. If the first batch sells out faster than two shakes of a lamb's tail, then I will try to land one on a future batch release.Same way as the N5 EDC moonglow rolled. We will see how this one shakes out.It's a must-have in my book....

CF/S90V sprints and exclusives have had a long history of being very desirable and as a result hard to find, or very, very expensive. I'd expect the same to happen here, right up until KW ask for a second run that puts numbers into the thousands. At least then they'll just be very expensive.

Yeah! Got two!

Guess I'm sitting out the Yojimbo2 release, though if someone wants to trade a Yo'2 exclusive for a M2XL I'm all ears.
