Hi all, I'm seeing the HAP40 Manbug in Spyderco's New Knives section of their website. The last offering in this sprint steel and burnt orange FRN.
http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=986
Cheers, Radioactive :)

Re: HAP40 Manbug has dropped!
Cool, I was wondering when they'd be along, was hoping it would be soon..next couple months could get expensive, with 3 N5's, 2millies, a M2 sprint, and the Nirvana still in the wings, I believe they're saving the best for last....Mid year catalog will present some new challenges to my wallet I'm sure....it's a sickness isn't it...lol

Re: HAP40 Manbug has dropped!
Of course the new stuff is dropping...I just busted my gift card to the B&M on a Yojimbo. Nothing to jinx it like being impatient. I suppose the M4 PM2 from BHQ is dropping soon too?

Re: HAP40 Manbug has dropped!
I went ahead and grabbed a couple, I doubt it will kick my SB Manbug off its EDC throne but you never know, The HAP's are really starting to grow on me.
How about you Radioactive, you grabbing any of the Manbugs... :)

Make sure to keep an eye on knifecenter then, I have 1 preordered and no notice yet, they tend to be a day behind the first landings.

Re: HAP40 Manbug has dropped!
Unfortunately, GPK is back to that same old "you are forbiddent" error message. I called KW and they have no date for the knives. I looked at several other sites and nothing. KC has them as a pre-order.farnorthdan wrote:Update: GPK has them in stock

Re: HAP40 Manbug has dropped!
Yeah, on the main page it shows them but when I clicked on it to buy it said pre-order. Maybe they got a few and I missed out?

Re: HAP40 Manbug has dropped!
Hi Dan, absolutely, I love those little guys! I have developed a fondness for HAP40 (two Delicas, Dfly and Lbug; I'm not a Stretch or Endura kind of guy) and the burnt orange color too so the Manbug will be a definite addition. I carry a SB Manbug on my keychain but I'm not thinking its position there is in jeopardy.farnorthdan wrote:I went ahead and grabbed a couple, I doubt it will kick my SB Manbug off its EDC throne but you never know, The HAP's are really starting to grow on me.

As it's been said many times, it's a real shame that there will be no fully clad HAP40 Calys. I do hope the Moki factory under the guidance of the family's grandson can find enough resident skill set to get that model back into production.
