I read there are only going to be 250 made. Doesn't affect me much, though.. I'd never be able to afford one :)
Stil.. A very nice knife.

and cut through the air
with a curse, like a knife.

That knife is a big bone to chew for the guys at the factory. I almost feel bad for them, and Thomas Welk for the stuff he is catching from forumites who sense already they will never see one.

With Maxmet as the blade material they have their hands full. I had thought that it was only offered in powdered form now. Maybe they found some on sale somewhere cheap where it was found to be too troublesome to be worth it.

Crucible isn't even listing it at their new site AFAIK.

Very nice. Does the pocket clip slides left and right so you can carry the knife on any side you like?

Quite a futuristic-looking knife! I do like the 0600 R.J. Martin design better though.
My favorite Spyderco knives include: Caly 3.5, Chaparral, Delica 4 FFG, Stretch, Para-Military 2, Endura 4 FFG, Manix 2 & Manix 2 XL!

Looks beautiful. Looks heavy and slippery too though. I wish the pocket clip were longer however as I have had experience with very short pocket clips coming off of my pants and the knife either coming off or the knife falling into my pocket (which is preferred). :)

Impressive... MOST impressive.

Looks like something Darth Vader would carry as a back-up to his light saber.

Thanks for sharing!

That is one gorgeous knife, but knowing ZT, it will cost $888.88!!! :eek:

I'll still get one, though... :D

I like the lines and details, but I'm sure it costs more than I would be willing to spend.
