2013 Shot Show BM Griptillian

Not really unless you favor a slightly shorter blade, a bit "fatter" knife & the different blade profile. Both knives are legendary and the 710 doesn't have the coated blade.

Some people have an allergic reaction to the slight recurve in the 710 blade. :rolleyes:

Yeah, it is coated - description says "Clear Cerakote". I'd like to see one.

To get one, just email a few major BM dealers that you are interested now.
And keep an eye out over the next few weeks.
These should be around for a while. Also, the big shops that had a few on pre-order probably just threw a few out for pre sale. There is a good chance they will be getting more than they have sold. If the Co. drops $20k on BM's at SHOT they will get X amount of Shot show knives. If the Co. drops $200k on 2013 BM's they will get Y amount. So, if you really want one you can easily get one. It just takes a little effort on your part.
750 is a huge number for a SHOT SHOW knife. Should make it easier than previous yrs.
Price is also a factor. They will be trading at what ever the dealer thinks is fair.
That's what keeps me into the hobby these days. Sprints, LE's, short special runs etc.
Have fun!
 
Knifeworks has both Plain edge and combo edge 2013 Shot Show knives at this time.
If your interested...:D
 
Ordered. Thanks for the heads up. I was supposed to get notified when they became available, but did not. Luckily, I was able to secure one. Thanks again bro.
 
I'm in for one too.

I had a griptillian and sold it a while back. It just seemed cheap with those plastic handles.. - I can't wait for this one though.
 
I ordered one of these puppies, can't wait for it to arrive.

I'm not a big fan of coated blades, but those red spacers were too nice for me to resist.

I'm having a really hard time resisting ordering the 710 to go along with it :\, damn this addiction is out of control
 
Lordy I've gotta start budgeting better for these sprint runs. I just pre-ordered mine. Time to rearrange the finances a bit.

As awesome as it looks, and I absolutely love that G10 handle, I... just... can't... buy... this...

(will probably regret this decision later though)
 
Just arrived #32, wow this is way sturdier than the grip I had before. a very impressive knife. Is this going to be a regular option for the scales?

Great to hear they getting into customer's hands. When you have a moment can you post a few pictures? I have to live vicariously through you until mine arrives.

Very very nice knife, this is the way grips should always be made.
