Just a heads up so folks understand what’s happening here. Spyderco is only shipping “2-5 knives per dealer”, this was said to me by the fella at DLT trading. He doesn’t know why Spyderco is doing that, but they are. DLT is expecting another shipment from Spyderco, and when they have their full inventory of the 15V knives, they will drop them.

Why does Spyderco not just tool up and run a bunch? Is this a tactic to see what will sell and what won’t? A Dip your toe in the water to see the temp. If it’s hot, Dump a truckload on the dealers? If so, it seems like Preorders to test the water would be a way better way to handle this, that way Scalpers Be Dammed! Everyone gets what they want and have paid for at the same time, and for a reasonable (& same) price.

I paid a scalper almost double because I want one, but that sucks. Are material procurement the problem? Is it risk of making too many of a knife that flops the problem. What are your thoughts?

 I gave up with this thread at this point anyways, just a **** show. Wish Beau would stop trying to do anybody favors and let them suffer on their own.
i really don't see the problem. a few stray comments aren't keeping anyone from this release. minuscule numbers are keeping people from this release. it's not that hard check your notifications and see if there is a link or not. it's not hard to find a link a few comments back. it is hard, however, to be on the forum all day and night waiting for an update, click on a link, add something to your cart, and be ready to check out across something like fifteen different sites that are all getting 2-5 pieces at a time.

i get the frustration, but i think it's misplaced. the stray comments don't take away from the great work beau and others are doing to help everyone. the wide-spread trickle release is the problem.
keep your knife sharp and your focus sharper.

 Since the lanyard tube is an integral part of handle integrity on the Manix 2, I've been reticent to do a scale swap...
I never liked the idea of a flared tube to provide structural integrity to the handle, especially on a work knife like a Manix.

This is one of the reasons why I like the AWT scales so much (there are several). They replace the flared lanyard tube with a proper stand-off, and the lanyard tube goes in the trash where it belongs...
Just in case the lanyard tube might not have made it to the trash be sure and let me know, I have a mangled one I'm trying to find a factory replacement for (satin).
