I also would like to know, it's now been 2 weeks since my order. And I should be getting it soon, I thought when I was told 2 weeks that would be at the latest. My card still has not been charged, so I guess it is obviously not on its way yet.![]()

Hi LOL...if your question is serious.., I'll give you a short answer and maybe Mr. Turber will kick in "the real deal" if he has time.
Mr. Turber's company "WOWInc."..does not manufacture the Tachyon. Mike has an "exclusive" deal with Microtech (a large manufacturer of knives in Florida).., and they make the Tachyon.., as well as many other non-Balisong knives.
As far as how many can be made in one day.., Microtech is not a huge company like General Motors or something.., and as I mentioned.., makes many other models of knives.
When you used the term "by hand" a couple of times.., I assume you are talking about assembling the components of the knife. And yes.., some of Microtech's employees do assemble the knives by hand. -But-.., the Tachyon is not a "Handmade" knife if you use the lingo we typically use in "Knifeville".
The Tachyon is a high quality production knife with lots of time, computer generated drawings, and very expensive machinery involved in the production of it's components.., which are then..., assembled by Microtech's shop staff.
Hope that helps![]()
