Yeah, I'm sure that'll be me at some point, lol. Just before the New Year, I grabbed myself a CE Cara-Cara and a PE Cara-Cara, both FRN. It amazes me what great knives these are for soooo little money! But I did tell myelf that I would by the MaganCut N5 this year when it's available.

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
Yeah, I really like the N5SE I have and was kinda thinking that the new MC version would be a perfect PE version for me but unlike you, the two spydercos I picked up just before the end of the year are carbon fiber handles. I’m enamored with both of those for day to day non-work carry and kind of negate the NEED for another native at this point. Plus, I’m sure folks will start offloading their current salt N5’s!!z1r wrote: ↑Thu Jan 06, 2022 3:49 pmYeah, I'm sure that'll be me at some point, lol.

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
Hi Skeeg,
FRN is the plan. All of these things take more time than any of us would like, but Rome wasn't built in a day. I've been accused of "hinting" things too soon, and I try not to provide too much information, but I believe you would prefer it that way? If not, please let me know?
The byrds are gaining in popularity and as with Spyderco, we try to accommodate the wishes of our customers. Not custom knives, but we listen, so better than just taking what we make with no input.
Edited by me to remove the Mike Story. I decided that it was unfair of me to put him on the spot like that. Apologies, Mike.

Hi Sal---
I appreciate all that you do to keep us informed. Guess I kinda tend to get excited over every little tidbit released.

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
All of the wharnies in the reveal look golden!
And check out those serrations too!
A few of them are in my future.

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
Yep, it's nice that they'll be available in both PE and SE

Well this has brightened up my week.

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
Has anyone seen them available anywhere yet ?
I'm frequently checking major retailers in my neck of the woods but they're still unheard of.

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
They are dropping all over. National knives, knifecenter, knifeworks. Not too hard to find them.
So many knives, so few pockets... :)

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
You won't see it yet. Europe doesn't get releases at the same time usually.
Highly anticipated models are often ordered by our usual dealers, but it can sometimes take 1 or 2 months after we see them on U.S. websites.
Plus, Byrd knives are not their first priority, so they might not order directly ?

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
Yes, we got the Crucarta PM2 pretty fast cause it was highly anticipated and a variation from a best seller item.
The K390 serrated police is not even available in europe yet ^^

Re: Byrd Wharncliffe
Thanks Sonorum ! I checked that yesterday but a Dragonfly Wharnie K390 ended up in my cart instead. These insects are really annoying, they only do what they want
The prices are pretty ok for the Wharnie Byrds, I'll definitely pick up one or two versions in serrated.
