Just got mine today, and I made a big mistake.

Instead of keeping it pristine in its box so I could sell it at a markup, I opened it up.

LOVE the orange! I might actually keep it...

Bugger!

P.S. Orange and Blue.... Go Bears!

CS did not charge a small amount like the others. Instead, the full amount was charged to our cards initially and then as the sale was not finalized, the CC transaction was voided. Now that the stock is in da house, we have to pay the full amount again. So you are right, we did not pay a down payment.

Are you serious? Could they really be worth that much?

No, not the stock clip, but an STR deep carry clip that I originally bought for my Chokwe. The orange and blue just go so well together, I had to try it out!

that would depend on how many are up for sale then.

Happy for you guys. Mines apparently still not shipped. I called to check last week and the lady said that they are in the process of arranging shipment.

I am not bothered by the delay as this is a great deal. Hope to check again next week though.

CS site has the knife listed at USD192 now. Wonder if what happened to the CF M390 Millie might happen here as well and we would be graced with another batch after some days.

I think it's just that originally, when the knives were for sale, the sale price (discounted) and MSRP both showed up. Now that it's sold out, MSRP is the only price that shows up. It certainly is possible that there will be unclaimed orders, like the KW M390 C36 though.

duvaldrummer, did the grind on the top Para in your picture go all the way to the butt of the blade? (Side closest to the handle when opened.)
