Excellent photos Tony, the color of the Charoite came out particularly well.

I can't find anything out about them. I think they have a few at a local shop, so I'm gonna see how they feel... I'm just confused as to why its not on the website.

Spyderco's been redoing their site for some time, I remember a few months back I couldn't find the Chinook (still gone, for the record). New Graham Knives is a good place to start, they've got a whole section devoted to SFSW here.

The current production version is mother-of-pearl with an abalone accent stripe. NGK and most other online dealers have those. Some dealers still have last year's smooth red bone version available, and a few still have some of the original amber jigged bone ones. As has been pointed out New Graham has an number of Santa Fe Stoneworks embellished ones, like Tony's Charoite one. There are at least a couple of reliable eBay sellers that offer them as well and you can also order directly from SFSW. If you want something even more unique, you can even make arrangements with Santa Fe to build you one using scale material you supply. I have a couple like that in my collection. :D You might have a bit of a wait on that last though, they're out of "blanks" right now.

Oh, haha, I was under the impression that Kiwi's were no longer in production or something. Or a rare expensive model. Anywho, I'm not much interested anymore. It doesn't have a pocket clip. It's a nice looking knife though. :)

Thanks for all the helpful information! After some research, I can assume NGK is NewGraham.com?

Unfortunately, the ATR is discontinued, so they may have run out of stock for that one. :(
