As of 1:30 PM mountain time, they don't have these in stock. I placed my order at 10 AM, waited an hour, then drove an hour an a half to Bladehq, just to be told they don't have them yet. What a disappointing waste of time. I don't understand why they would show this knife in stock before they have them in their hands.

Man, that sucks. Why didnt you call first? An hour and a half is a long time to drive without any notification that your order is ready.

I've never needed to call in the past. When the webpage shows something is in stock, I place my order, then go pick it up. I've never had any issues. Lesson learned.

$30 for tracked shipping to Canada is more than in willing to pay, so that shut my order down today

You think your shipping cost is a bit much ??!!
$46.00 AUD to Australia !
It's a matter of how bad you "want" something.

Question, is that $46 a flat rate? If so, all my orders would be bulk purchases.

I'm not sure , but it seems to cost $33.95 USD for a knife only, shipped Priority Intl. to Australia.
Other orders I've made for a knife plus a few extras, have cost more.
Hope that helps ?

Got a tracking number this morning.:) Waiting to see if it actually departs today.

Got it, along with the Lynch deep carry clip! Just got my tracking number a few minutes ago. Guess I can sell my Manix 2 version of this knife I never used. This will certainly get use as I've grown to like smaller knives lately.

Now, we wait for the next drop. What will it be??? I am seriously hoping for a DLC version of the Native. I also hope they go back and do a DLC Military. Then...

Shaman
Manix XL
Manix Backlock
Lil Native


...all in DLC M4/Jade

then...

Native LW and Manix LW with DLC M4 and White FRN or Natural FRN (what does Natural undyed FRN look like?)

Shaman might actually get me to buy one, finally.

I can't believe this knife isn't sold out yet. I'm seriously shocked.

I rather get the Blue M390 for the same price. I’m sure a lot people don’t like coating.

Yep. I decided I’ll wait for a satin finish M4 blade with different scales. CF would be OK. I like the blue scales off the s110v version.

Do we know how many BladeHQ ordered?

Depends on the quantity in the exclusive batch. I'm guessing around 1,200.

Dressed mine up yesterday with some black Micarta scales from RC Bladeworks. Feels and looks much better than natural G10! :)

Thank you for the lead! Checked out his FB page and ordered the P3 Python scales. Plan is to swap out the jade ones, will post pics once I have them. :)

Absolutely! I’m always on the hunt for nice aftermarket scales and these have not disappointed! :) I saw those Python scales on his IG feed, those will look and feel great! Good luck with the swap! Cheers, Radioactive

Ordered mine at Friday, received my tracking number on Saturday...it still shows it's yet to leave the facility!!! I'm like an impatient child when it comes to receiving my knives!

BHQ isn't always the fastest at shipping in my experience.
