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.

Excellent, thank you! Will make the change.

Blue Mule List updated.

Footnotes to the list:

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.

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.

Got my first mule ! Can hardley wait to try it as edc also looking forward meeting team thanks Nottoby
