I thought I’d throw this out there for people who are waiting for an Impinda direct from CRK. I ordered an Impinda in November last year. The wait time was quoted as 4-6 months. I am going to be leaving the country for a bit next month and didn’t want there to be a communication/shipping/payment issue if the knife was going to be ready at that time. I contacted CRK and was told November at the earliest. It looks like lead times are running about a year for the Impindas. On a brighter note a got an in stock notification from BHQ for impindas and snagged one before they sold out. When it gets here I can cancel the CRK order and skip another 6 month wait
Yeah, it's heart breaking to see a CRK you really want show up at a dealer before you get your order. It's happened to me before, I elected to wait on CRK since I wanted double lugs. I wound up getting a Impinda here and have been very happy with it.
It was reported here that they had an equipment failure that delayed them. Glad you got yours before leaving
