Ordered mine 9/29 from CS and I know that many had them ordered a good many months before that. Anyone gotten one yet that ordered in say, June or July?
 
I think he means the standard all Ti version? I am on the list also at CS and have not heard anything, I was pretty late getting on the list and Jeff said there were a ton of people in front of me. I would just give Jeff a call and ask how many are still in front of you, hes always been nice when I call to chat.
 
If you mean the standard Spyderco Ti Millie, yes, several of us got one. I've had mine for a couple months now.
 
I can't leave factory knives alone. My first Ti Military got an S90V blade, the second an S60V blade. Are we having fun yet?

That is correct however, many of us preordered them at what I feel is a better than average price (approx $30 better) from Cutlery Shoppe and I'm wondering if anyone has received thiers from that preorder and if so, when they placed that order? I'm not looking to put Jeff at CS on the spot as he clearly states that all preorders will be filled, "first in, first out". Just curious as to how far along we might be?

In answer to others, yes I'm referring to the all titanium Military, not the G10/Ti with M4 steel.
 
I cancelled my CS order and got mine from New Graham for the extra $30.00. New Graham has always treated me great and $30 isn't that much (about 15%) more.
 
When I emailed them a couple of months ago to ask about an ETA, they said each dealer only gets 5 knives a month and they fill the oldest orders first. My order was made in late November and will will probably be filled around November.

I've heard similar comments however one online dealer I just checked showed 7 in stock, (three others also show "in stock" but no quantity). If that's the case are they still sending five to dealers that still have over a months allotment unsold? Also heard that they were only going to make 50-100 units a month. If so then at most 20 dealers are getting orders filled.

Looking at my emails, I preordered mine on 6/19/09.
When I came back from vacation, both of mine were waiting for me at the office the first week of this year.

Furthermore, Jeff had sent an email to me on 1/2/10, stating that my preorder was 2nd in the stack.

The one order on 6/19/2009 was filled by January of 2010.
This one from end of June has yet to be filled?.
Has Spyderco put a temporary stop to making the Titanium handled Militaries?.Or are the Titanium handled Militaries on an extremely slow production process.Hoping that Mr Glesser or someone from Spyderco will let us know.Thank you.
 
Is it really worth $30 to wait months and months for a "pre-order" that turns out to be a "get it several months after its been released" order?

If it is for you, thats groovy. I respect frugality. But the "P" in Powernoodle does not stand for "patience". :)
