New Item Delivery Dates and Information

Here is the steps taken with a MIM blade:

1) A mold is made - similar to making a mold for a plastic injection molded part.
2) The mold is shot - the material is a combination of metal powder and binder (like plastic).
3) The Blade comes out of the mold approx 20% larger that it will end up. This would be the "green" blade.
4) The Blade is Sintered (placed in a vacuum furnace) the binder is removed in this process and the Blade is now approx 94% density and 20% smaller.
5) The Blade is HIP'ed - placed in special furnace and subjected to heat and extreme pressure - approx 32,000 psi. This increases the density to approx 99.7%
 
Thomas - will there be more new releases at Blade beyond the brown SG2 Blur & Tyrade? I thought there was talk of a Dead Sexy in the works?

I finally figured out how to convert a pdf into a jpg. Here are some pics and specs of the SHALLOT (Dead Sexy), the Tyrade, the Tanto Groove, and the R.A.M.! Thanks Thomas for the pics, and for the little bonus I got today!;)

Now stop screwing around at the airport and get to work on those Taboos!!!

Actually, I hope the Shallot will be popular enough right away that there will be a high end boutique run soon!
 
I am really liking the tanto groove any word on a street date for this and the rainbow groove.
 
Hoo thank you nygiantsfan3342 -- yeah Shallot baby, THAT'S what I'm talkin' about!!! Mmm, I also wonder hungrily about potential higher-end boutique runs of that sweetie. Zounds!!!!! Gimme!

OMG just noticed it's a frame lock too! Nirvana!

They're all looking pretty good, but the Tyrade....that's some crazy stuff. D2 fused with 154CM, CF and 6-4 Ti. Where do I sign up?
 
Oh no, this is bad news for my bank account. I'll at least get all but the Tyrade once they hit the market (will have to save).
 
I'm with FishFace on this one. How do I get A Partially Serrated SHALLOT? Gotta have one!!! ASAP!
