I have been waiting for the new Cold Steel Voyagers with the Tri Ad lock to come out but they are not on their website anymore. Also it looks like most online retailers don't have a pre order option for them anymore. No more Voyagers? Looks like knifeworks has the new Recon 1 but dang it I wanted a 5.5 inch Tanto Voyager with a Tri Ad lock. Any news on what's up with that?
 
The CS forum has a number of postings saying the new-model Voyagers won't be getting here until 2011.
 
Thanks for the info. That's a log time but if they need time to get it right so be it.
 
Posted on the KW site (on the New Arrivals list)

"UPDATE: From Cold Steel
2010 Voyagers/Gunsites/Vaqueros:
The new Voyagers, Gunsites and Vaqueros have been cancelled because they did not meet our specifications or delivery schedule requirements. All backorders will be cancelled. These models will be reintroduced in Spring 2011. We will have more information on the 2011 Voyagers/Gunsites/Vaqueros at a later date."
 
I was waiting for those models as well and it's disappointing that they were cancelled. It's something to look forward to for next year I guess.
One thing I'm still not sure about is whether those new models were actually going to have 5.5" blades or 5" blades like the old models. The catalogue definitely reads 5.5", yet LT himself describes the blade as being 5" long on a demo video.
I just picked up the Spike hawk which I think is very cool, the handle is a couple of inches longer than CS's older model hawks. I'm hoping the Trenchhawk is still coming out as well as the companion daggers for my CS hand and a half sword.
 
^LT isn't the most focused speaker. On another video that Demko did not very long ago, he specifically says they will be 5.5 on the XL to be within' legal carry limit for certain areas. I'm bummed too, I was psyched for the release of the SMIII FFG g10 handled voyagers... I assume the reason for their delay is all of the new changes to their staple folder.
 
Probably a lot dealers that have quite a few of the older voyagers on their shelves.

Thanks, I was hoping they were 5.5" long.
 
Wow. This sucks. I've been patiently waiting for the new Voyagers to come out and now this. It looks like my American Lawman will be riding pocket until 2011.
 
This was a big time bummer for me too. I hope this just means the new ones will be held at a tight standard of quality.
