Haven't seen any yet, but look up photos of the 20CP version and you will pretty much have it.

That's just a mock-up... no diamond pattern, no blade markings.

Thank you guys for the links of the picture. At first, I didn't think I would care, but after seeing its potential, I'm going to have to pre-order.

This is my first Sprint order. How long do they usually take to shipout? Several months?

It should be just like the M2 sprint, I wonder if it will be the exact same color

Depends on where you are at on the pre-order list and from who, once they start dropping and if your quick enough and manage to grab one other than pre-order than not really any longer than a normal order take to ship. No one really know the exact date they will drop, it usually just happens and all of a sudden and folks will report right quick like around here. :)

Looks like KW has stopped taking preorders until they know exactly how many they will receive. Glad I got my preorder in there when they were still taking them!

Also their page says they expect them in October, not October/November like KC. Here's hoping for October!

I haven't dealt with KW on any preorders before. Are they pretty good about filling them if
you already have your confirmation number?

I hope it has the bevel around the edge of the G10 like the M2 cru-wear has

And to top it off out of the blue my blurple s110 PM2 developed a terrible lock stick today. Tried everything to get rid of it, but major finger numbing click to unlock now. Me and PM2's just aren't getting along.

But give me a cruwear Millie and I would be in.
Get some nano-oil and put it on the bottom part of the stop pin where the lock interfaces. Completely removed my lock stick :)

Thanks BTG, done on the edge pro, Cruwear really is one of my favorite steels, takes a great polished edge and seems to hold it for a long time with not too much work. I cant wait for this sprint to drop, I have a feeling they are going to be every bit as nice as the M2's. :)

I don't have much experience with KW and preorders, but they seem to be good about only taking as many preorders as they can fill. I doubt they took very many Cruwear preorders from how quickly they made it unavailable, so if you got a preorder in with them for a Cruwear PM2 I would bet you'll get one. KC on the other hand seems to take preorders indefinitely, and hasn't always been able to fill the demand on Sprints, which I why I switched my preorder from KC to KW.

I haven't tried Cruwear yet but there's no better time to start than right now. I like the diamond pattern too.

Price isn't bad either. Preorder in.

I bet it will be identical. I hope so anyway.

I'm on the fence on this one. Already have two PM2s and am favoring the Manix more and more over time, (full ambi,) but I like the light gray and diamond weave scales so much on my Cruwear Manix that I may not be able to pass this up.
