A salute to SFO's and Dealer exclusives. Lets see 'em.

[pjsjr]

This is a C&C 118 in 5160 that I forced a patina on...

 

[GPyro]

Here is one that came in under the radar, a 532 BuckLock with G10 scales. A real cutie. Smoky Mountain did 100 of these for the Blade Show and held a few back for sale on their web site. $99 as I recall.

Alright already.
I've been eyeing that 532 indigo blue exclusive for weeks.
With that filework...... yeah, those are nice, gotta have one.
Fair warning: Only a few of those left.
PS.
Thanks for the photos/push.

The 110 has a CPM S-90-V blade. The Spitfire has a San Mai CPM-154 blade with a CPM S-90-V core.

Some BCCI SOs

 

[afishhunter]

From SK Blades:
"The Gentleman" German Silver bolsters, liners, and shield, black G10 covers, CPM154 drop point blade.
"Smoke Jumper" I don't use the "stands out like an sore thumb" red trimmed sheath. It lives in a stealthier standard Buck black nylon sheath.
Not available for photo: SK Blades "Lil' Jack" 112 with clip point D2 blade. (my first SFO ... unless you count the Walmart 371/373/389/877, and plain 50th Anniversary 110 editions)

Here's a nice little 532 Custom from C&C.
Indigo Blue Dymondwood, Drop Point blade, Nickel Silver bolsters and of course that bit of file work.

Those s90v 110s are special.

I never knew of that Spitfire. Wow.
That is a cool blade. Where did that come from?

That's a nice patina.
Sometimes those forced patinas look bland ( at least mine do)
Yours looks great.

I think it came from GP Knives. My memory is as good as it used to be, but it is not as long.

 

[GPyro]

These were great offerings. I can't believe it took so long to sell out.
402 Akonua w/ S30v. Thanks DLT.

You can't help but say "arrrggghhh" when holding it.

Thx.
I'm gonna miss the SFO/ Dealer Exclusive knives.
It gave me reason to always keep track of what different vendors had in stock and what they had available.
With that gone, what's to keep us from just sticking to a favorite dealer?
Some of the stuff available from SFO were great offerings.... often somebody always had something out there you really wanted.

Now I get to wait for what....... BOTM?
Ebay searches, (ugh).

I might save some money tho if there's nothing interesting calling me......
AND THAT is entirely counter to what this website is all about......... enableing!
Sigh.

[stevekolt]

Here are two 110's that are exclusive to DLT, top two on left, S35VN, and 20CV blades respectively.

 

[stevekolt]

Here are all the 4 offerings from Altamont. I bought one of each for myself and a few extra's to sell at the Oregon Knife Show but the show was cancelled due to covid.
Each one has it's own style of engraving on the bolsters as well as different checkering on the handles.

I've come SO close to purchasing the one with the bald eagle engraving...

I've got the Charcoal S35VN and that 20CV is next on my list. Nice collection!
