current production schedule updates.

So, I think I asked this question before but didn't really understand the answer. I wonder how many 5.1s were pre ordered vs. The other models.

I don't think they ever said or indicated. The only thing they've said (that I remember) related to numbers was that they were producing 3-4 times as many knives for regular ordering (3-4 times the number of pre-orders i mean). I'm assuming in this you mean the starter campaign and not the limited pre-sale they did in Dec.

The GSO-5.1s had the most with the GSO-4.7 being close behind. However, the GSO-4.1 and GSO-7/7 ended up surpassing them a little bit since preordering was available for so long. GSO-2.7 and GSO-3.5 numbers are about half of the GSO-5.1 preorders.
 
Do you think we will see the Monday release program starting this month?
 
So, if the upcoming orders are half the size in volume, I could possibly get my 4.5 by sept 15!
 
How can the Monday release program start before all pre ordering is completed?

That is why I said we are aiming for the 8th. We should have the GSO-5.1 preorders and presale orders packed up by then. If we don't get those finished up, it will be the 15th.

Come on, there's got to be a meme somewhere out there that at least gives us a general idea of your feelings right now :)

The SK Series will be available soon, starting with the SK-4.7! We are enlisting the help of 30 customers to try out the new SK steel option. Once we have their feedback we will start getting those knives put together. Check back here for availablity updates as we get closer to having those in stock.

SK-4.7: For now we are aiming for April availability. Keep an eye on this page in case that changes.
 
The most specific information seems to be on necker II's and the SK 4.7.

Ellie also added at the way bottom of the page the date of when the production page was last updated. Nice touch :thumbup:

Oh, nice touch. I missed that.

And the 3.5 is closing soon! Great, then all my knives are in production or have shipped. :)
 
I also noticed there are more old 4.1 handle colors in stock. Which I really shouldn't mention before I've had time to order mine... ;)
