Well lets put it this way...my order is now cancelled.

I looked on knifecenter.com and it said it was in stock. I placed an order and got an email saying it was ready to ship as the status.

So I took a break and went to the pool for an hour. Got home and had a voicemail from them saying that my item was not available, they weren't even able to fill the backorders yet, and they had no idea when they would get more.

I was told upon callback that they received a shipment of them and they were accidentally entered into the system, but they were not available to me yet. I then told them to cancel my order.

Guess I'll be waiting a while for one.

Finally, received my pre-order from KC. It's a cool little knife. Just took out the speedsafe spring and I like it that much more. Very smooth action, but a weak detent since there is no pocket for the detent ball- must be because of the speed safe design. Not hair shaving sharp, but definitely good enough for edc.

A special thank to Kershaw for making a well made, low price point, Hinderer Knives collaboration blade. All in all, I'm very happy about the purchase(s).

I don't know anything about the inners of knives, so can you guys help me understand the reasoning behind removing a speedsafe spring or a torsion bar.

That's just the assisted-open mechanism. Basically, it turns the knife from assisted-open to manual. Just a matter of personal preference.
 
Got mine in today. Great little knife, locks up great, flipper is easy and the coating seems to get grippier when wet. I have an easy time using the thumbstuds, which was one thing I'd heard other mention as being hard to do, probably just a grip thing. Wish the flipper/ricasso area wasn't so sharply cornered, mine cut up my thumb a little so I'll probably take a stone to it to get the bur off.
 
I just had to get one. Came yesterday. You get what you pay for. Its not a 200-400 ZT or Hinderer but I am impressed with the quality for the money. A great little backup knife.

My thumb is also messed up after playing with it. Can't believe how sharp the edges around the flipper is.
 
Just got mine in the mail.

Aside from it being scorching hot from sitting in the mailbox all day, it's a great little frame lock.

Perfectly centered, sharp, solid lock up with zero play.

Money well spent.
 
I ordered a new knife Tuesday and was going to get a Cryo but didn't know where they were in stock ans Amazon showed at least a month so I ordered a Skyline instead.

Fresh out of the mailbox!
 
I finally got my Cryo as well. To reiterate what others have said, it is heavier then I expected. Not to heavy to carry in my opinion. However, I forget how small a sub 3" blade really is. The knife is an incredible value at $30ish. However, I don't think I'll ever carry it. It will just remain a knife in the collection. I think the Cryo II will have a much better chance of getting EDC time.
