New Lum Tanto/1ST Sprint
Hi guys, I found this on BF just the other day listed as New and Un-used. And he wasn't kiddin' either. The knife,the box,the edge u cation paper- everything was immaculate. I'm really glad I got it. Its my first Sprint Run Spyderco as well. I will be putting this one in the safe, as I doubt very seriously that I'll ever use it. I would perhaps like t fins another to use, as I really like the design and tanto blade itself. Without any further ado, I'll get on to the porn :)

Re: New Lum Tanto/1ST Sprint
Very nicely done! One of my favorite Lum designs. Great pics too, by the way. Do you plan to EDC this one?
Edit: Ah, I see this one is destined for the safe. :) Might need another one to carry. Too nice of a design not to see pocket time.

Re: New Lum Tanto/1ST Sprint
Thank you Spydernut :)
But yeah, I'm certainly gonna try and find another to use. I agree 100%

Re: New Lum Tanto/1ST Sprint
Hi Folks!
What a Catch! :eek:
This knife is pristine. Looks to me like a New Old Stock piece.
Enjoy! :D

Re: New Lum Tanto/1ST Sprint
Nice pickup Mac! Good price too... I like the looks of this knife very much but I find the liner lock bites me every time I disengage it and it pulls a little piece of skin off, so I mainly look at it in its box with mild apprehension and suspicion these days. Cheers, Radioactive :)

Re: New Lum Tanto/1ST Sprint
Seems like another sprint would be a no brainer on this model. I was talking to my wife about my new CF Yo2 and how awesome it is and how its basically the most sought after combination of scale and steel. I told her how cool it was that the combination of the two was put into my favourite knife (Yo2). She stopped me and said, well what about the Lum Tanto? I laughed and said, that would be even better but it will never happen. NEVER!

Re: New Lum Tanto/1ST Sprint
I had one.
Didn't like it as much as I thought I would.
Hate tanto folders!
It is a looker though/

Re: New Lum Tanto/1ST Sprint
Very nice. I personally don't like tantos as users but I guess that isn't a user. I am in the minority and love grey G10. Great score, enjoy it!!!!
