The page loads fine once everything is sold out. When the piranhas are feeding, the site times out often.

Yesterday the site loaded worlds better during the later drops. I bet it'll be the same today.

People are being a lot more polite on this forum, on other social media platforms the response feels very negative. I hope this sale isn't going to result in issues when knives start arriving and they don't meet buyer's expectations.

First post here. Missed out on the sun and moon chaparral, but managed to grab a native 5 maxamat and I'm beyond happy.

Dang, finally was able to get the list to load and the chef's knife is gone.

Agreed. Some people sound so toxic on the social media pages that I feel embarrassed for them. There will be tons of unbearable whining from people who are surprised they didn't get a perfect knife for 1/4 of retail.

In my experience in person, I have sometimes had a hard time finding any defects on some of the inventory, but it's made very clear at the top of the page that this is NOT what to expect when buying sight unseen. That's why I've been very conservative so far and am only looking for crazy deals on models I'm curious about or beaters/backups, not with a goal to get a collectible safe queen for less than wholesale.

I gotta Parata! Happy for the chance to check this one out for less than the painful Seki G-10 retail price.
Also a drop-point UKPK, which is exciting because the Stretch is one of my perennial favorites. Threw in an Efficient for free shipping.

As someone from an IT department, I have to voice my support for the Spyderco web team. I'm sure this sale has been a major deviation from business as usual, and probably quite stressful. Thanks in advance as well to all the people working on fulfilling these orders.

I still see the Parata available, and the Efficient. That is all for now.

I've missed everything I've tried to get so far. I'm ok with that and am happy that Spyderco put the seconds sale online.

I am disappointed in the bots and wish there was a solution to them.

I think that's correct. They deleted a number of models that sold out yesterday.
