Nice line up !!! The new 4.1 looks almost as big as the 4.7

That's what I was thinking. On paper the handles are almost identical in length and the blade is about 0.25 inch shorter. The 4.1 is SLIGHTLY shorter in length and height and thickness. Different (less?) handle contouring. Aside from the 4.7, this has been and still is the one I'm looking forward to the most!
 
I saw that pic and wondered why I jumped on both the 4.1 and 4.7. Can't wait to try them out side by side once they arrive, thanks to the recent responses.

I am thinking maybe the 4.7 will be more heavier duty than the 4.1, mainly for camping or survival where you will require it to do more whereas the 4.1 will be a better hiking knife for lighter duties?
 
Well I missed out on a 4.1 so if anyone bought multiples and wants to hook me up that would make my day!
 
^^^^^ Nice!

I feel like I've been slipping lately with the timely updates :D

This is interesting and exciting and kind of mysterious news!
 
Those are all either preorders or Cru Forge V blades. The Factory 2nds are getting built as well, their handle fitment is the hold up, but that should be addressed shortly.

Thanks, sis :thumbup:

Sounds like a busy weekend in the shop, but I can imagine there will be a lot of happy customers next week!
 
7 black handled CruForgeV 4.7's on the table - so there is a chance!

Some interesting conversation with Guy is happening at this link, so check back for little tidbits and updates.
 
No presale 4.7?

Not sure......... Monday sales are supposed to be in the hands of customers in a matter of weeks and starter orders from 2015 (IMHO) should keep taking priority, so I'd guess the limited preSALE will come after. Does that sound right?
 
I doubt they're priority. From the sound of things the S!K crew seems to put in a lot of hours, sometimes I wonder and worry that they'll get fried and burnt out. I like to think the side projects that come up like micro texturing, Cru Forge V, the GSO8 design, and these modded 4.1's are what keeps the fire in their bellies.
