M390 810-1401 Contego

Pretty stoked on this one! Got my pre-order in and happy to say this will be my first BM. This model had my attention since it's inception, but the colors and blade steel really just pushed me over the edge.
 
Looks like a whole bunch of us who preordered on December 10th may receive it by the end of next week! :thumbup:
 
My card was charged on Dec. 26th (preordered on Dec. 10th) so I'm pretty sure it'll ship as soon as tomorrow.
 
I'm extremely happy for this knife. What is the amazing selling points of M390 sorry I'm still a newb but I'll hopefully pick this knife up end of Jan.
 
What is the amazing selling points of M390

Tough steel with excellent wear and corrosion resistance. Benchmade does it well too.

Oh my!
I want that one right there!
That looks great MCM!
I really hope and pray that I get one that looks very similar to that.
Mostly blue that is!
I know it's a crap shoot.
But, I cant help myself.
Blue please Mr. Fate........oh, please give me blue.....yes, be kind and please give me blue.
I've never wanted the blues so bad. ;)
 
Yes!
Just got shipping confirmation today!
MCM, congrats on being the first to post pics.

I'd say odds are it will. Looks like the top layer is blue, unlike most other blue/black G10 offerings I've seen.
 
Same here, 01/02/14 should be here. So should my S90V Manix XL, great start to the year!

I'm in the identical boat with S90V Manix2 XL also shipped today from KnifeWorks. Posted a short while ago on the Spyderco forum.
 
After seeing MCM's pictures I can't resist anymore, M390 is my favorite blade steel and that blue is a lot nicer than I thought it would be. I ordered one today and asked that they check for an even edge grind and centered blade. Keeping my fingers crossed.
