Amazing Reveal...
So that would mean that in addition to the long-awaited Maxamet Millie, we're gonna see Millies in S45VN w/ a diamond arc G10 handle AND a lightweight Millie with Spy27 ???
BTW, the yin-yang Pacific Salt picture is simply stunning, my heartfelt congrats to whomever came up with the idea/execution.

It occurs to me to ask: What is the most sprint runs that Spyderco has offered in a year? My foggy impression is 5 sprint runs has marked a pretty good year.

I ask because this Reveal announces 10, all Golden-made. Will the remaining two Reveals do the same?!

Before reveals, a lot of the big sprint runs seemed to be announced with the new catalog. I assume they did it in this first reveal of the year instead. Since they aren't doing a mid-year catalog anymore we might see a couple more sprints in other reveals but I'm not expecting to see anything like we saw in this last reveal

I will say I’m a bit disappointed we didn’t see the new Swick in this Reveal. I thought for sure it was gonna be in the first one of the year.

Sal has posted that the Swick won't go into production until May:

I guess I should be more specific; scheduled to begin production in May, probably won't be delivered until late summer.

If the demand is there, we'll go to FRN scales and that will make colors a better option.

That's way past the 3-4 month release window for this reveal, so it would be in reveal #5 at the earliest -- and maybe even #6 depending on when "late summer" is.

I too am really looking forward to the new Swick. I buy knives very intermittently, and some how have always been in a "knife buying hiatus" when the previous Swick models were released and have never managed to get one. So I'm determined to get at least one (and probably more than one) this time.

I hope k390 is not a Sprint - the ladybug doesn't seem to be

Forgive me if it’s already been asked, but will the Rex45 G-10 native 5 & G-10 Manix 2 have liners?
(I’m guessing the Manix 2 will, more so wondering about the native 5.)

EDIT: disregard- I found the answers in the Knifecenter description: skeletonized liners on the Manix, no liners on the Native 5.
