3V is their gold standard steel. Its not going any where. They are RnDing with some different carbon steels to offer a lower cost option to folks. They arent telling us what the budget carbon steel is. They want some people to beat em up, sharpen em up, and keep beating them up and then provide feedback before they announce what the steel is.
That's really smart. So, how long am I going to have to wait for the option to buy the 3v since they are in production? Is it a once a year thing?
 
The starter program was done to help boost funds so that they could fix their 'out of stock' issue. As far as when the sales will open up only time will tell. I couldn't see it being that much longer though. Hang out here and chat with us. Ellie gets on pretty often to help keep us informed and Guy gets on occasionally too.

Are you signed up for the monthly news letter? Every first Friday of the month they send out a news letter to help keep us up to date on progression of each model. You can also check the web site or we also have two threads to help keep people up to date as much as we can.

Stick around what could you loose except more money for awesome steel. (People tend to encourage heavy spending.)
 
S! does not offer coatings on their 3v. What verysimple was referring to is their coatings that will be offered in the future for their new mystery steel. Which will be reviled after they're done with the R&D stage mentioned in the above post. Verysimple was stating to Guy and crew that they might as well just deposit his future pay checks in their account if they offered the 3v with a coating.

:D

I was lucky enough to get 5.1 in 3V with dlc... It's a collectors item now -)
 
You lucky dog! After my starter buys I'm going on a search for a og 7/7 false grind with either coating.

I think I saw Bigfoot carrying one while riding his unicorn! Talk about a rare almost mythical knife. You'll be the first one to know if I ever see one.
That 7/7 on eBay looks great though.
 
Yea it'll be awhile what with all the purchases made and to come and i know I'll pay an ungodly amount when I do find it. But its got back ground and rarity. I figure its worth it. If I have to kill a Sasquatch and a unicorn to get it,I guess I need to clear some space for some mounts on the wall.
 
Just checked the production schedule for the 4.7, with it now stating that there only waiting for the handles to finish up then pre-orders are shipping after Christmas!

Nice find! I seriously checked that schedule like 5 times today, but didn't see any changes until you posted here. If not for some downed equipment I think I might have had my 4.7 before 2016. Oh well, soon enough. Really exciting to see any type of progress.

Tex, you beat me to posting that helpful link. Man, I can't wait for the changes SURVIVE! is rolling out!
 
This is probably breaking 14 types of forum etiquette, but I saw your post in the Becker forum and wanted to get your attention here. This video sold me on GSO's and 3v, but I didn't want to post this in the other subforum.

Thank you!! Yeah, before I spent the money for the GSO I wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing. I'm kind of excited about it and hope I don't miss it.

It's nice to know he touches it up with the Sharpmaker.
