House of Blades Limited Orange Skyline

[Rasco]

Whelp, I was on there looking for something else entirely and I came upon this...

Here's the BF topic for it :

I'm not a huge orange g10 fan, like some guys, but no shit just yesterday I was EDCing my Skyline and thinking to myself how I need another one. I'll probably keep this one in the box too, like the blue & blackwash BladeHQ limited edition.

But then again, I may not. Might stick this one in my backpack since it's orange, I dunno.

Anyway, new LE Skyline out now.

I just ordered one earlier. I have been thinking about trying out a skyline for a while and figured a limited one was a good one to get.

 

[Rasco]

It's just a great knife. It was the first one I bought years back that revived my interest in knives and led me to expand my collection.
I'll either keep this on in the box, or toss it in my truck's center console.

You won't be disappointed shepman.

This is the first I'm hearing of this one. Looks great, just like the carbon fiber Skyline I saw on here.

 

[Rasco]

Yeah I'm pretty stoked for that one too, but it is twice as much and I'm guessing they're gonna fly off the shelves.
This one could be a sleeper...?
At any rate, I needed a new one and it was cool to be able to get my hands on something other than the standard black & bead blast.

 

[grownstar]

Definitely man! If I was in the market for a new Kershaw, it'd be that one.

 

[brandnewcolony]

It's a nice one that's for sure!
I personally love orange g10, it's just so darn cool and useful.

 

[Rasco]

Whelp, it arrived, and I must say, I'm very pleased. This thing has rekindled my love for the Skyline.
Verrrry stiff out of the box, but I'm still on the fence as to whether I want to use it or collect it.
Either way, awesome knife.

 

[shepman]

Looks great. I haven't heard anything about mine shipping yet but glad to see you got yours so there is hope I will eventually get it.

I lost my old orange skyline a long time ago so thanks for posting this! Just ordered one.

 

[John_0917]

What do these run? I'm guessing the usual HOB gouging?

 

[bro5.0]

It's $53.

 

[John_0917]

It's $53.

That's surprisingly good, I expected $100.

 

[Rasco]

It's no more than Blade HQ charged for their limited Skyline.
Just not sure how limited this one is. Not sure I even care. If it's "limited" to 10,000 pieces, I'll just use it.

 

[shepman]

Mine showed up today and it looks great. Wish I knew how many they made though.

 

[Rasco]

I asked over on the House of Blades post.
We'll see if they answer...

 

[chris6464h]

That looks good I need to get one for the collection.

I sent them a pm asking the day I ordered mine and still haven't heard back

From the dealer made topic:

I asked the same question via email, and House of Blades indicated that the number would be around 500.

These skylines are really collectable. A few months after they sell out, they pop up for nice money on various sites. I was pleasantly surprised when mine sold for a price higher than I expected. That was the old orange version with the bead blasted blade.
