You two sammiched me at #40. I'm still feeling very lucky! Ready to celebrate tonight.If it's any consolation, I was at least comforted by seeing that you were #41 behind my #39. Oh wait... that was only a consolation to me
Awww... it's nice when someone feels lucky about being sammiched between two geezers!

That's actually how I feel, only I've been carrying Sebenza-level folders for a long time. My fixed blade knives are basically all the collector pieces I have. I might change my mind about the CPK folder, but the prototypes we've seen so far assuming it's the same design haven't really tickled my fancy.I understand what your saying but don't necessarily agree for me personally. I'm not a collector. I buy a pocket knife to use. For the last 10 years I've carried a ritter grip with DOAT CF scales. Reasonable price, reasonable quality, did everything I ask of it. A couple of weeks ago I bought a sebenza 31. Proof is in the pudding. Night and day a better product. More than twice the price but easy to see where the money goes. I guess I'm slowly leveling up on what I'm willing to daily carry and possibly lose or destroy. I ran into cpk about a year ago. I was on bf bitching about the quality of a small fixed blade I had purchased and was recommended trying a cpk. Seven cpk knives later I bought a freaking sword todayin the end what I'm saying is I am excited to see what the evil genius comes up with for a folder without alot of preconceptions about what a high end established folder manf. Is or can be. On top of all that bs. I run a small business. 24 employees. Small business is what makes America tick. I'm sure the Ruskey shiv folks are a small business too but I'd rather spend my money here, pay to educate our children. Ok sounds like one to many celebratory whiskeys on the pre-order so ill rap this up.

Praise Jesus there was not a repeat of the UF2 preorder winner lol.I'm kinda relieved that the Scout Master who appeared to be equipping a small Scout troop in one of the previous preorders, didn't decide to equip his Ninja clan, this go around
Might I suggest that folks who scored multiples consider relinquishing one in the name of altruism and magnanimity and brotherhood and such? Oh, right, piranhas, not saints. (I mean that in a most loving way!)
Almost...about 2 weeks to go
