Still available at Knivesandtools. The price is a little bit higher compared to US MAP, but, as I mentioned earlier, not too far for European prices.
The best price to expect here will be around 240 - 250 €, I'd guess.

Somehow I managed to be out of the loop on these; I knew they were coming but it’s happening!!! I missed the Cruwear Shaman, I’d really like to get one of these.

[Thunderpants]

Knivesandtools has (at least!) one less than they had a couple of days ago. Mine arrived today and I'm keeping it! It's flawless and as lovely as could be. Fantastic design + the best handle material on the planet = what's not to like!

Anyone bought from Deadwood Knives? Seem to have some stock they're selling at just below MSRP.

I pulled the trigger there because I couldn’t sit in front of my computer refreshing all the sites trying to score one any longer.

I've purchased 5 Spydercos from Deadwood over the last couple of years and the service has always been great, never a problem.

This whole experience of trying to get the Z-wear Shaman has been very off putting. I do not see why there cannot be more transparency in the process. It would seem to make good business sense.

Its pretty simple... limit quantity to create a demand hysteria and appreciation, to drive people to collect knives. So we all end up competing with each other and filling our closets with extra knives.

Its frustrating as **** if you just want to get a good knife...

There are plenty of good knives easily available. If you want a special run you are going to have to work for it just like any limited edition run of anything else. If you are just looking for a "good knife", I'd say nearly all of Spydercos production models would qualify. I lust after many of these exclusives as much was the next guy, but my carry knives have been my K390 Endela or Endura most days since I've got them. Both easily available and would definitely qualify as not only good knives, but great knives.

Uh oh, are you gonna have to change your sig line?

Sorry, should have qualified my statement. I'm specifically looking for micarta... much tougher to come by given they all seem to be limited release.

There's a production Cru-Carta PM2 coming out this year. I bet there will be a production Micarta Shaman eventually.

There are also tons of micarta scales out there. Depending on the model you can pay less for a knife + scales than a shaman. For example, I have an M4 Manix XL in the mail and grooved green micarta scales on order for a few dollars more than the Shaman- not a bad deal in comparison.

Another one? I’ve been looking for those too- did you find it on eBay?
