BB13 Over/Under

[JohnTheTexican]

According to the O2W Shipping Info Thread, the BB13s were announced May 4, 2016, and there are 30 knives (or variations) that came up on O2W before the BB13s that haven't started shipping yet. I included variations because, for instance, they started charging credit cards for CS Trail Scalpels a week or so ago, but as yet there's been no word on the BG version.

I think Garth started posting the "heads up" on August 4 with the BG Boss Jacks, and there have been 8 if them between then and now, which is less than one a week. But assuming thinhgs are released pretty much in the order they were offered, and further assuming one week per knife (or variation), one or the other of the BB13 would be due on May 24, 2017.

So what do y'all think? Will the first BB13s be delivered within a year of the offer date, or will it be more than a year?

Call me an optimist; I went with "under."

Sounds about right. Are the dings coming at the same rate as shipping notices? I haven't paid attention to the numbers but it seems like dings are coming at a faster rate than shipping notices, but I also think that the shipments seem to come in big waves of shipments.

It seemslike the first reports of shipping notices have generally been coming about two weeks after the first reports of a ding. I expect the CS Trail Scalpels will start shipping any day now.

Me, too.

At my age, I don't care much about "being right." More interested in happy and optimism helps.

I'm going under as well.

Since the TRASH 2's are getting dinged now, the system Busse uses for Res-C blades is available...I voted under

That would be awesome!

Here's hoping for trail scalpels this week!

Guys...we all know the apacalypse is near....this vote is meaningless. Grab whatever blades you can right now and leave all the BB13s to me...

 

[Tom Kanik]

The TGP's will ship in 7-14 days according to Shaley. Perhaps the BB-13's won't be far behind.

Well, I think we have passed the approximate quote of "no plans for the Bolo13 to be made for at least the next year" comment Jerry dropped in the B13 thread, so any day now.

I voted under. Hoping these bad boys might line jump due to less time needed for production? (Only one handle option for each. Res-c handles are ready to go, don't require any finishing, one rivet.) Here's hoping anyway :thumbup:

 

[tinfoil hat timmy]

Hoping under, but voting over

 

[zombieassassin]

Voted under...I have faith.

 

[hexenjager]

Sorry guys, I went with over. Still lots of O2W blades to finish and nobody knows what military, etc. orders have gone or will go to the front of the line (as they should). Plus I kinda expect to see the return of the mystery grab bags with O2W later offerings at some point. That may be after the BB13 though.

There's only been 8 Boss Jacks sent? Where did you get this? I've already bought and received one off the exchange! Admittedly, I think it was a grab bag knife. But… I'm confused.

I'm hoping for either VERY soon, or not till after the new year. If the ding comes in the middle of gift-buying time, it's going to be a very tight holiday season for me lol

 

[Firestrike]

I voted under. I think these will ship before the Fatback and Public Defender LE's.
