Many thanks to those who supplied Sold Out dates, especially to CLOK, who did heavy duty forum research on this issue.

FootNote 1: MT04 - “These possibly sold out same day. But this was the weird one with the heat treat issues. Kristi posted on 11/30/2009 that they knew of the heat treatment issues and a good batch (not seconds) was to be posted on the website in a window between 11/30/2009 - 12/14/2009 unless sold out before 12/14. She then went on to say a 2nd batch of HT would be performed and those would be released 4-8 weeks later, but cannot find posts on that later occurring.” --CLOK

FootNote 2: The “>” (greater than) ranges are due to no definitive sold-out date being found. The termination date used in these cases is the last mention of “still available.” Again, thanks to CLOK for the careful research here.

FootNote 3: MT12 – “Originally released on 9/12/2011. Restriction was lifted on 9/19/2011. The recall due to heat treatment was announced on 9/26/2011 and they suspended sales. They were re-released on 1/20/2012 and users were still ordering them on 2/2/2012. I could not find a post about when it went out of stock.” --CLOK

FootNote 4: MT18 – “Released on 2/5/2014. They sold out by that night. Spyderco then released another batch on 2/17 which looks like went back out of stock on 2/20.” –CLOK

FootNote 6: MT26 -- Released 8/7/17. Very few conversations about it. Spyderco put more on the website around 3/9/2019. Then a user was able to pick one up at SFO on 9/3/2021. This is probably the slowest seller and longest gap of sales if you don’t include the ZDP-189 seconds sold late 2022. -- CLOK

FootNote 7: MT35 - Sold out in 80 minutes, likely would have sold out sooner but for server crashes that slowed sales.

MT01: 52100 • Jan 10 2008 • Q: ~600 • $79.95 • SO: several hours

A couple of quibbles. One, they sold for $39.95 each with free shipping, and two, they were released in small batches over a period of a day or two. People were still posting that they were able to get one on the 11th.

Blue Mule List updated.

I expect we’ll see a Rex-121 Mule at some point perhaps before the Sage 5 Rex-121 FRN.

There are still plenty of these Mule Teams in stock: K294, AEB-L, SPY27.

Only one of REX-T15 in stock.
