BK3 on closeout???

[NJBillK]

The BK3 is shown on the kabar site as in closeout sale.

Is the 3 going the way of the dodo as well?

crap... if that is true then it looks like i need to order 2 more earlier than planned haha

I think it's a special packaging thing, clam shell vs traditional Kabar box.

LIMITED SUPPLY! SPECIALLY PRICED DUE TO OBSOLETE (Clam shell) PRODUCT PACKAGING ONLY!

don't think they're discontinuing it just yet.

I was hoping it was true - I need a reason to buy one.

 

[zzyzzogeton]

Needing a reason to buy one is reason enough to buy two.

As soon as I thought I had gotten all the Beckers I wanted, this thread popped up. Now I have a BK3 on the way and I don't even know what I'm going to do with it. I'm really good at convincing myself I need something, apparently.

So far my normal knife websites have yet to discount it so I'm curious to see what happens in the near future with the bk3
- if any of the more well informed members could help fill us in that would be awesome! Lol

Hmm. I guess I am going to go get myself a 3 or two sometime.

 

[Vinjints]

now is not the time for this. don't have the funds.

Wow! If this is the case, glad my BIL gifted one to me spring before last. It wasn't one that I was gravitating towards, but I was very pleasantly surprised when I got to use it the first time. If you don't own one, you really should!

If you don't own one, you really should!

I keep telling myself that; but I haven't taken the plunge, yet.

From the description, it's the Clam Pack version that is being clearanced off. Probably got a load of them just sitting there and they need to make space in the warehouse. It might be that they are discon'ing the clamp-pack packaging or , in a much less likely scenario, it COULD be that they made a bunch of clamp-packs up for some order that got canceled

That makes sense. Either way, on closeout or not, glad I have mine! [emoji106]
