It may. Not only is it a unique steel but the G10 color happens to be killer. Can't wait to see it in person. Mine is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

I guess it doesn't really matter. It'll probably sell for well over $300 CC# or not.

Agree. I wonder which guys do buy those for $300 though...I'll just do without at those prices. If I really need to cut something, some other spydie will do. :)

Hmm, I'd rather talk about the one that sold on eBay on 5/31 (before anyone had one) for $295 to a buyer who is supposedly is located in Russia who gave feedback on 6/5 "Thank you very much! This product is great, I recommend seller!". 3 business days from US to Russia, really?

AND in the past the seller replied to negative feedback on 2/3 "I will NEVER ship to Russia again. 2nd time I've had a TERRIBLE transaction"

Probably "good" money made the seller to change his mind.
When I sell my knives on BF or any staff on e-bay, I strongly prefer to sell in US. Selling outside the country is increasing possibility of things go wrong. But I had few crazy buyers in US, bad transaction with buyer in UK, who just refused to pay custom dues and the knife was returned back to me couple month later and two good transactions with Russians.

Landed! The green is magnificent. A perfect, dark forest green. The second picture gives the best representation.

Yesterday my USPS status said "Expected delivery by June 6" and I have sometimes had mail delivered to my house as early as 9:00 or 10:00 am, so I arranged to be home "just in case" but finally had to leave for work.
Now it says "Out for delivery" yet at the same time, they changed the "Expected delivery" to June 7 :( . It must be "out for delivery on the back of a turtle" the Post Office is only about 1/4 mile from my house LOL. Maybe my mail carrier called in sick today (or is playing with my knives for a day :eek: ) :) .

Oh well it will show up eventually, I've generally been much happier with USPS than UPS for deliveries to my house.
Which Knife, A or B? get Both! (and C, D and E) :)
