Actually to add to my frustration I had been in contact with Blade HQ the week before the release of this trying to eliminate an issue. I thought I was all good and following the instructions the passed to me for the process.

Part of me is still hopefull that my order will go through and they were just too busy to reply via email in today's rush.

Same here, and I was in contact with them before too, but they still haven't replied to my order email and when I called it was out of stock.

But I might have managed to order one via parcel forwarding as long as they don't think it's fraud since it's a different address than my billing.

Fingers crossed...

I really am surprised by how much demand this knife was met with.

I'm not, really. The PM2 is a very popular platform, and the various offerings in alternative blade steels are always well received. Factor in the $60 lower price tag than KW's upcoming M4 PM2, and it was bound to be a hit. Some people even like the jade green G10. (I'm not really a fan of the color; but that doesn't matter because I don't like the stock PM2 handles, anyway.)
If anything, I'm surprised that it didn't sell out more quickly.

In that case, I understand your frustration. Not cool.

Well I guess I wasn't fast enough. A shame because I use my knives. Oh well. And BTW, I'll never buy ANYTHING from BladeHQ again. Guess M4 isn't for me.

What, exactly, is your beef with BladeHQ?

I think they did a stellar job.

That was an Amazon Black Friday sized event for a small shop.

What could they have done better?

With no limit on sales the knife would have sold out much sooner. And I think 3 was a good compromise.

Fear not: there are currently (5) of these for "sale" on that auction site, made available by the magnanimous facilitators of capitalism!

I think so too aquaman. Also, why would you buy the one on ebay for $459 right now? After the one on Knifeworks.com comes out and you miss that, then maybe.
 
one has already sold.. for 255. after fees, didn't even profit that much. If I were buying one to flip, I'd wait until there weren't 5 others on the site. all for different prices. Still weird to me that people are buying and selling something they don't even have yet!
 
Always amazes me.......the sense of entitlement some people have. Blade HQ not only notified us 3 days in advance, they gave us the exact time they'd go up, they also asked for suggestions from us.
I, and many others, feel they did everything they could've possibly done to make this fair and painless.
Sucks for those that didn't get one, but what else could they have done??
Is it really necessary to blast them and swear to never buy from them again.....because you missed out? Maybe they should just give them away??? I'd bet some would still bitch.

Just think for a second......how about there was no limit on knives bought......think how much BHQ would've saved on free shipping. That's a LOT of money they more or less gave away.
But I didn't get one so they suck......makes perfect sense......ugh.

You don't have to be fast, just informed.
And BladeHQ did a great job at informing folks.
Put it on you wish list and they'll even send you an email 3 days before it goes up.

Also, check the forums out more often and you'll never miss a knife you want. Always a thread telling when the knife is coming out.
I haven't missed a Spyderco I wanted in the past ten years, and I never feel the need to be "fast", just informed.
I waited an hour yesterday before I placed my order, and had a shipping link emailed to me in a couple of hours.
Didn't need to be fast, as you say.

I don't understand how you can blame them, and not yourself. They did all they could to let people know when it was going up.
Sorry you didn't get one, but check the forum more often and you'll never miss one.
 
I got 3 just gotta be faster bud it's your fault not blade hq. Entitlement these days runs strong trust me there will be many knives in your life don't Debbie downer over one.
 
I think BHQ did an awesome job as well. Only thing I feel they could of did better was put a one knife limit on this.to detour the capitalism that thrives in this instance.I was one of the lucky ones that got one,and yes I had the opportunity to buy 3.I knew there was only so many produced,I thought of my fellow spydie nuts and simply left 2 on the table.just my way of protecting our community from capitalism in my own Lil way,idk just my train of thought.never the less great job BHQ can't wait to get my new edition can't get here fast enough 😆
 
For those who didn't get one yesterday. I just checked and they are in stock again.... Be quick or you won't get one again.
 
I planned on only buying one but when I freaked and submitted another order when I had a CC Error now my brother is getting a bad ass wedding gift and I'm sure he will use the hell out of it, I don't collect I buy to use my s90v and m390 pm2 are used every week and my 20cp is pretty much alway in my pocket now with major blood stain lol

Protect us from capitalism? Shame on you for saying that and shame on me for repeating it(I have to go wash my mouth out with soap now).
 
yep i just looked they show them in stock. don't know how many maybe only 1 or 2, but for those who missed out, jump now.
 
The Exchange will be flooded with the extras people got, so fear not if you missed the sale.

Even at a $20 mark up, it's a hell of a bargain for M4 and the Paramilitary format.
