Bob;

Do you have a shipping date yet for the last round of the BF Sifus? Anxiously waiting.

I too would be interested in when the final round of SIFU's are going to ship.????

Looking forward to that Green handled mega-folder! Hoping for #54, my birth year, but in any event can hardly wait to see GREEN!

The last batch came in today, and they will be going out today.

We are still missing 3 knives, but they are in route to us and should be here by the end of the week. We've had one slight mistake with a Green right handed knife being produced instead of a Black right handed one, but I've already called that person to see if they will accept it and am waiting for an answer back.

Other than the missing knives, and the wrong colored one, the rest will be going out today.

Thanks for the fast response-both answering and sending packages. Hope I am not one of the 3 delayed ones. Looking forward to the SIFU and the Mission neck knife.
 
Donald, I packed all the boxes but I for sure remember yours going out because of the sole MPU.

Spark,
If they don't want the GREENIE, I'll take it - it would be neat to have two greenies - one for each hand - DUELING SIFU'S! YEEEE HAAAA!

Bill

E-MAIL me if he decides not to take it - I'll call you back with a card # - Thanks

Great, I'll be waiting for it.

Regarding the green handle instead of a black handle on somebody's knife, don't forget this thread http://www.bladeforums.com/ubb/Forum32/HTML/000315.html
where Pleconin's green 21 was stolen, but you managed to substitute a black handled model where there was a cancellation. Perhaps there could be a trade, not to dissapoint Penguin or anything

The bright side: at least the error resulted in a GREEN handle!

I did see one for sale forced by unfortunate circumstances, i.e., needing money for something besides knives.

I recall the asking price being somewhat high....of course perhaps that price is the value of the loss for insurance purposes?? ...no that is not a legal opinion.
 
Vailin,
I'll always keep dreamin' - allows me to soar with the eagles while mired in the daily muck!

Regarding the previous entry - if the person doesn't want the green SIFU I'll buy it as I said before but if Pleconin wants a green one I would be more than happy to have you send the green to him if he sent me the black one he has - I certainly would be happy with a black one if he wants a green one - it would be great if this could work out to everybody' s benefit. Waiting patiently to hear whether the person accepts the green.

Spark;

I can't wait for number 47, green righty.... but it is probably the LAST one out the door... well, I have been on a lucky streak, so maybe I get it... sadly, i have sold almost all of these type knifes (avoiding the t word) for my outrageous customs... over 5k in 6 knives by TURNBULL and HARRIS... and a Brend polish SOCOM...man I may have to raise somecash. My two Elishewitz lovelies are on ebay and I just sold a Chameleom, a Battle Mistress and a badger Attack. Let's hope the finances work, because I may have to sell my DA SOCOM carry knife... I think I am keeping the SIFU..IF I ever get it it!

The Sifu is a 100% guaranteed "keeper". It's not all THAT expensive, not considering it's enormous advantages in a street defense folder. It's just barely low-cost enough to be a daily carry blade.

Just awesome.

As a sidenote, I posted on a private NRA EMail list regarding UPS's gun policies and theft problems. I explained about the Sifu and that of 70 total but less than that shipped so far, one was pilfered within the UPS system and explained how the theft happened. Someone EMailed me for permission to use the story in something they're writing on the UPS situation: Tanya Metaksa.

So the Sifu will soon be doubly famous - as something to beat UPS over the freakin' heads with!

I gave her Mike Turber's 800 number in case she wants to confirm the tale.

I have to say, I like it even more than I thought. The rolling lock is a very clever design. This is my first rolling lock knife, and now I am thinking of a second.

Jim, thanks for not letting old SIFU 21 die. Having some good come of it’s theft is something I did not even consider. Great Idea.

I would not mind trading my black for a green if that fellow wants to. I am happy enough with the black though, so I won’t be asking the other him.
 
as for that knife...did you get my e-mail spark?
just checking to see if i can expect my baby this week. *GRINS WICKEDLY*
