Ugh, late again. I did the same thing with the Ladybug. Waited too long and bought it on Bento box... Anyone got a line on in stock SB D'flies that aren't at Spentoomox?

Enjoy your edges folks:)

I first found out about bentobox when the Manix2 with M4 came out. They were the only ones to have it. I noticed right away the older and/or discontinued Spydercos they had were very expensive. Since then I have wondered how much the M4 Manix2 would have been if someone else had been the ones to get the exclusive on that knife. Not complaining, it is a great knife. Just thinking.

I've gotten little thank you gifts from dealers before. CS give suckers for example. This is a new one for me.

I have a bandaid on now for a little kiss from the Stretch so I may need them. :)

They are fast. I ordered mine on Thursday morning and got it today. Throwing a Sunday in the middle will cost you a day I guess. :)

I have been assuming that much like the Delica and Endura previously that the initial batch of these would sell out but in a couple of weeks this would be fairly easy to get. Is that untrue on the Dfly? Is it more popular?

It's hard to say but I believe the Dragon fly is a run of only 600 and the Endura is 1200 . But I'm sure marketing will be the same as far as sold in batches instead of all at once until there gone .

I'm in the same boat. I've been super busy lately and missed this guy hitting the shelves. Hopefully more will turn up. No way I will pay bento prices for it. I really was holding out for the Dfly too passing on the others in the series. I will definitely have to be more mindful and grab a Manbug if I can't find a Dfly.
So many knives, so few pockets... :)

Of these SB grey FRN sprints I have no idea which is most popular but I got a Stretch 2 or 3 weeks ago and they were released earlier. Are any that have been released already completely gone from normal places? I doubt if the D'fly's will be completely gone right away. Could be wrong. If Iwould have thought about it I wouldn't have canx my pre-order with KC when I got one elsewhere. I could have gone ahead and gotten the pre-ordered one when available for someone else. My exact cost. I don't think that counts as offering to sell since I already canx the order but it's a thought. Either way, I think there will still be time to get one. I am speaking from compete ignorance of course. :)

These Japanese sprints usually come in batches. There should be more coming over the next weeks. But don't wait too long.

I've always thought it was cute getting bandaids in the box with the knife from NG :) .

My SB Dragonfly from Howe's came with a Spyderco bag (like the kind they hand out at trade shows to carry around your swag) and a "survival whistle" with a compass built in. One order from Howe's came with a very nice padded case thrown in as a freebie.
Which Knife, A or B? get Both! (and C, D and E) :)

Anyone hear from KW yet? Called on Friday. No word on when they are getting them or if my preorder has me covered. Keeping my eyes peeled for others to come in stock but no dice yet

These staggered sprint shipments are killer. Or maybe spyderco doesn't like Kw lol

As far as I know, it's only with the Seki City sprint runs. I'm not sure why it is.

I've been checking the standard dealers daily. Still no luck, I can't wait for this one. Any online sightings out there?
