Just saw this baby last night and HAD to have it. It was love at first sight. I got it well below the MSRP, so I can't complain too loud. :) Is it worth the price? I doubt it, but it is a handmade production piece of M390, titanium and G-10. I love the looks and the feel of it. I saw a mention of the TAD Dauntless, and yes, I really see a resemblance. I just thought I would share.

BTW: this thing is beefy. It makes my XM24 seem small.

i also have a 132 but the scales on mine are not the same as yours. do you know how many different combinations are being offered?
 
Only two that I know of. I held and played with both knives yesterday. In the end it came down to a $600 difference just for CF in my opinion. Both are incredibly smooth and fantastically executed designs. 100% THE nicest mid tech I have ever held. Post pics of yours so we can see. Heck, post em here. I don't object. :)
 
Here is a link to my mini-review with pics of my 132.

yojimbo73, does your 132 look like mine? I ask because I think that Vegas Blade's 132 is the same as mine. His pic is a bit dark, but when I take it and lighten it up a bit, it looks the same to me. I think that there is only one 7505-132 configuration. The other is the 7505-131 which has carbon fiber handle scales.

FWIW. :)
 
That seriously looks like some hybrid. It is the 132 with the CF scales from a 131. It lacks the CF inserts in the fuller, and the serial # is too high to be a 131. I believe only 100-150 of the 131 were made. I played with the 131, but I could not bring myself to pay 2X as much for CF. besides, the 132 is AWESOME! Can I ask where you got this?? Dealer or private party? That is very interesting.
 
I love mine as well.

Expensive but quite a WOW factor.

Actually rarely use the auto function as it opens nicely manually.

Great 4" M390 blade.
