Just got off the phone with a rep from NewGraham who told me they are waiting for a shipment of new Spyderco Lum Chinese Folders and there's already a waiting list 200+ long for it. Anyone heard of this? Can anyone confirm? Or is it just misinformation/misunderstanding?

Thanks.
 
there's been talk and threads about it for a good long time, perhaps a search is in order?
 
ZDP and black alimite. I've been waiting a while it should be a sweet knife.
 
There is a sprint run in the works, but as for a time line, we're still in the dark. The waiting list is only 200 people? I'm surprised actually. The way people are talking about this knife, I'd have expected it to be 3 times that.:cool:
 
Oh, the ZDP-189 version. I knew about that one actually. I thought they were re-releasing the VG-10 one. I like the anodized green almite version and was hoping they were releasing it again. I did do a search prior to posting, but didn't find much. Actually, just did a search now and didn't find much on the ZDP-189 version either (a couple of threads), but then again, I suck at searches. I searched for "lum AND chinese". I tried "lum AND chinese AND folder" but got too many hits (so white screen) and also "lum AND C65".
 
So what's so great about this one? I've use tanto extensivly for a good year and decided that they suck. I understand that spyderco makes knifes, but why so much hype with a tanto?

Not the Lum Tanto, the Lum Chinese. It's a more utilitarian blade shape, closer to the leaf blades Spydercos are known for.
 
oh nevermind, i just saw that the website says it has it on back order. at least you guys can get to see a picture of the knife on the site, it looks really nice :)

That is just one dealer...

Considering it will be sprint run, it actually may be far too optimistic to expect all these people will get the knife.
