Well Scott wouldn't be getting the newsletter if he hadn't...

But yes many of others have as well.

I just ordered three...heck three for less than the price of one normally is a screaming deal. Sit on it until they get announced as dc'd this fall and sell for profit. :D

Sounds like a good plan. :D
What does it take to get the newsletter?

Bingo :cool:

And they have my business because they actually want to please their customers(shocking isn't it).

First time I ever ordered from them, it was a Waved Delica 4, that I ordered because NGK was out of stock, and as I usually do, I selected USPS Priority Mail for shipping. Within an hour of me placing an ONLINE order, they called me and explained to me that because of how close I was, if I used UPS ground, it would arrive the NEXT day, instead of two days.

They didn't have to tell me that, but doing so won them my business.

Sorry, just had to tell that story.

When you are filling out the order there's a box to check, or uncheck or something. Good luck with the knife ( ie: buy it before any more Zenheretics come along and clean them out of stock ) Joe

Buy something. At the end of the checkout, you can select a box that says something like "Subscribe to the Newsletter".

Very easy.

After I finalized my order, I almost ordered another batch of three, but another session of shipping and thoughts of all the big money fixed blades coming out brought me back what little sense I have remaining to me. :o :p

Yes, We are looking at a pretty big year in 2007. At this point I'm glad I didn't commit myself to the collectors club.

I bought too many of the ZDP sprints at one time too. I learned my lesson about that. I have a stack of them NIB sitting in the safe now wondering if I'll see my money back or if some cousins will get some really nice knives but would rather have a toaster. :o Joe

Yes, one side is round and the other is flat. But it isn't weird...
I have one, it's classy!

It is nice knife. Micarta and G10 looks good. I bought two of them in August for my father-in-law and myself.
An excelent quality, very solid liner lock. My father-in-law carry it every day. I use it for dress up events.
Mastiff, thank you very much for the tip. I was watching this knife on e-bay to buy backup. I bought three, like Zen.
Thanks again.

I have been a Knifecenter customer for years, slightly higher than other low cost dealers, but just as reliable as our favorites.

I saw this newsletter last night and got one that second! I kept wondering if it was a misprint!

thanks for the great find!! i only bought one since i ordered the kris, the caly 3 and a viele III on blade forums yesterday. whats the difference between the veile II and the Viele III? no micarta in the III? thanks!

Having not been across the ocean I would buy a few too...

Viele III? Never heard of it. In fact I'm guessing you are mistaken on the name???? :confused:

The Viele is a very nice and elegant knife. I'm sure you'll enjoy yours. Not to mention the price - it's a steal.
Karen, I guess one side is flat for the convenience of clipping it. If the knife was rounded on the clip side it would wobble in your pocket.

Thanks Mastiff,

That made my day. Now lets hope they can fill all of the orders :eek: Do most sites like that have the ability to automatically adjust the inventory that they have at the time of peoples orders?

I am expecting this model to be discoed like Zen said. I don't think sales have been very good on this model. At least until now!!

How DO you pronounce Howard Viele's last name? I scored one this morning, hope its here monday.

I always assumed it was Vi el...we'll see how far my assuming goes... :rolleyes:

I have always read it as Vee-lay, but I dunno much.

I got an order in also. :D

Just an update. I just talked to the people at the knifecenter and they will not be able to fill all the orders so far. They are talking about limiting them to just one per customer even though you have placed an order for more than one. Should have an update in a couple of hours. In other words if you ordered earlier they will try to get you one. They are trying to track down additional knives.

Certainly understandable, thanks Steelman.
