Probably one of the best feelings ever.
You arrive home after work and see a package on your doorstep that you don't remember ordering...
EDIT:
In retrospect that sounds really scary, but I hope y'all know what I mean.

MAN, I remember all the knives I order. There's no possible way that I could forget ordering a Blue Kershaw Skyline in s30v.
That's like me forgetting that I preordered that brown Para mili 2 in s35vn 2 months ago and they still haven't sent me that yet.

Take it easy guys, that is definitely a photoshop. A very good photoshop, but still not the real deal. Check out the way the blue bleeds onto the pivot and handle screws.

You can do just about anything with photoshop. I sincerely hope I am wrong, but I don't think I am.
Guys it's a photoshop. Thought I'd freak you guys out a bit.
Heres a better version with a more apparent "stonewashed" blade and better coloring.
If it looks as good as this does, I think I might have to add another to my preorder
Whats interesting though, is that I didn't photoshop the blade grind. I found this black Skyline on the internet via google search and I didn't know that the Skyline had this grind before... I think it looks better, and it makes me wonder if this is what Kershaw would call "FFG" for the BladeForums knife.

If that would have been the page 1 'It will look like this' image. The presale would be over

I checked on google and it appears that blade grind is only on those types of pictures. None of the real world pics have that grind. I wonder if the prototype had that grind and they went to the one now because it looks like it would be a heck of a lot cheaper to grind.

Still hoping....

Hope it looks like this one! Thanks for taking the time to Photoshop these pics for us! Personally, I can't wait to see the final production version. If it looks as good as this I'll be very happy.
