CF Stretch has arrived in the little box (pics)

Post by JspyEDC »

Sorry for the bad iPhone pics, but I don't have my good camera at the office today. Nice flat ground full-tang ZDP, it feels like the peel-ply CF Millie, but has a different scale design.

Delica/Endura black clip, so you'll be glad to know you can use an Adventura clip if you want to go shiny!! (Take it off the new Pink Delica, that would work as well...)

All in all a beauty, and probably an amazing cutter. Getting ready to find that out.... To all my collectors, your invoices are on the way.....

Could someone post a picture of a stretch next to a military? I am intrigued by the stretch.

does it have steel liners? I wish the CF models were more like the Mili in regard to liners. Such a great, light-weight material wasted with the weight of full steel liners. :(

Does have liners, but they're skeletonized, Sal said it weighs about 110gm which would makes it about 15gm lighter than the original Stretch and about 8gm lighter than a current production Military. Thinner blade should make it a better slicer and the fact that it's considerably more compact may appeal to some who find the Military just too darn big. Another of those "different strokes" dealies.

It looks from the paperwork, that this one is a "variation."

So, I would assume main piece collectors should not be expecting this one?

Looks to be that way Mark.

NGK said that they will be getting thiers in early next week so the collectors that use them should be getting them soon, and maybe us poor folk can think about ordering one as well.

MSRP is $280. US street price should be in the $170-200 range.

I'm an admirer of Spyderco's designs. Using them is like immersing yourself in music or studying a painting in a museum. I buy some "fine" art but my preference is for usable art.
