Will be a regular Catalog item AFAIK.

Production and, without checking, I think you're right.

My South Fork arrived this morning. Man that thing is sharp!
I think this is the sharpest Spyderco I have ever received yet! And a *very* comfortable handle. I just love the feel of it in my hands. This is my first knive in S90V steel.
I won't be doing any "batoning" or abusing it of course, but I do plan to use it!

Cool! I see CC# so I'm guessing that the regular models are likely to ship soon.

Yeah, when I pre-ordered it I didn't see any mention of it being a collector's version, but oh well, it's going to be a use anyway :) .

I can't wait to see this one in person. I think it's a home run in design and materials. Looks like it will feel good in hand. On the flip side, I could leave the sheath. Wish I had a usefull suggestion on the sheath. It just looks clunky and cheap next to such a beautiful knife. Regardless if this one feels as good as it looks, it's top of my list this year. Time to start saving.

It is a most excellent knife. Yes, I'm a spydiehead.
