For anyone who is willing to check their records and preordered from knifecenter...
Can you tell me when you placed your order and whether you have had your order filled yet?
It would be appreciated.

Picture is wrong, but on their Instagram they clarify that it is the Cruwear sprint.
Go get 'em!

+1 to that. This is why I love this forum. I searched for a good long while online and never once saw this place in search results. I snagged one as well. Never heard of these people. Thanx Ninja
(you got to get up early to snag some cru-wear) :rolleyes:
supply and demand there are 3 left at this place for $150

Thanks!
After *almost* ordering one of these on a couple of different occasions this week, I finally moved forward with the order!

I wonder if that orange Native is on the same truck?
DLT told me they'd likely be getting theirs Friday this week too. EDIT - they are now live on DLT

Out at DLT. This knife and the Caly sure seem popular.
Reminds me of being in my 20's and trying to score good concert tickets. Doing research, making calls, getting up early and waiting in line for the box office to open :D

Pretty crazy. The Cruwear PM2 launch was madness, too. One of the best steels, really, and with a compression lock = perfection.

I said I thought this one would sell out, but I confess I'm surprised at HOW popular this is. I thought it would sell out in days not minutes. Most of these places aren't holding stock longer than an hour or 2. I think the great price might have something to do with it. With S110v goin for $150 and Maxamet for $170, a nice steel like cru-wear for $125 is appealing.
(Thankfully these are being released slowly, so even if you missed it at a bunch of places this week, you'll still have a few more chances, wouldn't sleep on it too long though)

I think got really good lucky with it. It suddenly popped up again on one of the Netherlands main and most trustworthy places. Comparable with bladehq in the states so to speak. Thing is, demand for spyderco is a lot smaller here and our 17 million ish is nothing on the whole population of the states. I even had a week to contemplate it before I got one. I'm very supposed it popped up at all. Probably some stock that misplaced who knows, it came brand spanking new and the action out of the box is perfect, blade dead centered and perfectly even bevels set. Frankly it's a rediculously perfect pm2. I use my S110V pm2 more but holy ****. It's got nothing on the cruwear beauty.
Never even contemplated a Para 3 but when the cruwear one was announced I hopped on it without a second thought, nostrils flaring, creditcard in hand and working my way to the complete order button asap. Then I forgot about ordering it completely till I got the notice a few days back.
Thank you for ordering from KnifeCenter.com.
We wanted to let you know that your order has shipped! Please keep a copy of this invoice for your records.
Huh? I didn't order someth-
Spyderco C223GPGYCW Para 3 Folding Knife 3" CRU-WEAR Satin Plain Blade, Gray G10 Handles, Sprint Run (Paramilitary 3)

Well, from Germany to France to the Netherlands is one way of doing it, seeing as we're neighbors with Germany and France being a country over, but Monday is the estimated arrival time! I wasn't expecting it selling this like hotcakes, I feel lucky lucky lucky!

I'm going to be the first to posit that there's some CQI on this puppy. That little overhang on the lock cutout is rounded off on the Cruwear compared to being square and sharp as **** on the regular Para 3.
