From Boker's Website:

Up to the challenge, the Minos, an uncompromising tool that lets you down in any situation.Available from May 2012.

After a good laugh I checked the website. I guess they fixed it:

"All in all an uncompromising tool that will never let you down - whatever the conditions. "


6.5oz is really really heavy for a 3.11 inch folder. But the blade itself is pretty thick. I might just wait and pray for a Minos Lite (yeah right, I'll likely end up picking this one up anyways).
 
Called BladeHQ today to see if they had more info; was a dead end. No ETA (even the year), no other pics, no price, nothing...
Oh well, this might be a good thing for my wallet. :p
 
If something is new in the German catalog, we will see it later half of the same year. This one should be stateside in the fall, I would think.

Keeping my eyes peeled for in stock now! I'm also hoping the quality is as good as this product looks.
 
E/O put up a macro on the tube:

Wish we got a heads up on price and delivery date.
 
Excellent video.

That's one thick pocketclip...it complements the overall design of the knife get nicely.

I saw it on Bokers Facebook page today. I think its ready ship.
 
It' s available already here in Germany(from Bökers website). If there' s one advantage for knife addicts like us living in Germany it' s the earlier availability of German-made knives:)
That video is incredibly awesome, one of the best youtube videos I' ve ever seen on a knife!
 
Saw this on Bokers site...a linerlocking Minos with grenadill-wood scales and stainless bolsters called the Minos II.

Yup, the entire new catalog is online on the German site and it includes several new Anso designs(ahem...SOLO;))
I' m not really a fan of the Minos II though. It' s still super heavy and I much prefer the very characteristic look of the original handle and blade finish.
 
The first small batch of Minos hit the US yesterday. Will start shipping Monday. These are nice.
