Finally got mine ordered, should take a few more weeks to sheath it. After waiting this long I'm going to test, train, and punish this thing to no end. Took so long for my size to come up I was able to save up for this thing in spare change, hope all this waiting pays off.

You ordered a pre-made one six months ago, and it just came now?
Yeah, that's pretty bad that you had to wait that long for a pre-made model. That'd be kind of long for one to be made, even. I had bought one from them about 1 1/2 yrs ago & was lucky. I got it in about 1 month, but it seemed to be hit or miss on whether you'd get it within a reasonable time even then. I certainly wouldn't "gamble" with my $ nowadays with them.

I ordered mine in late April, received it in early July. However, it's become my new EDC ever since then, and I'm going back for more accessories and possibly a second one. At the time, the high price and waiting period had me pacing about and checking the updates constantly, but it really is an amazing little tool. I waited nearly a year and a half for one in my size to come up, checked them nearly every couple days for a long time. Now? I have a choice of straight, claw, hybrid, in either 440C or S30V. Huge step forward, and while I wouldn't order one that I needed next week, I'd gladly send away for one knowing I'll get it eventually.
Correction, Although it showed ready to ship on the site, they were out. Their website is difficult to navigate to say the least and to be fair I have an odd hand size :jerkit: so it took time. All in all it is a great little product and I'm very happy with it so far. Now to explore more carry options. I'm curious if anyone has tried their pocket carry sheath?
I just recieved my HAK tiger claw. I don't remember when I ordered it ... at least six months ago. At the time I thought it was a long shot, and figured I would keep the order on their books as long as they didn't ask for money up front.
So, six months later, I got an email saying they had a tiger claw in my size if I wanted it. So I sent payment, they shipped the next day. They sent an email with a tracking number. The package arrived a few days later. It was what I ordered, and came with some extra paracord, bandaid, stickers etc. It looks pretty good, it fit, has a nice kydex sheath.
My wife saw it and took it for when she runs. I guess I might be buying another.
