I think chronologically they are up to shipping Chop House and Ratweiler orders, haven't heard of any SFNO dings yet. IIRC, a few ASH-2's have gone out, but they were pre-orders from Blade?
 
The best way to figure out when you will receive something is to:

1) Buy a live chicken
2) Slaughter said chicken, saving the blood
3) Eat said chicken, saving the bones
4) Take bones and blood to your local fortune teller, voodoo priestess, seeer, star-gazer, etc. and have them divine from the blood and bones when your knife will arrive.

I swear this is the most accurate method out there.

OhioJerry, I have Miss Cleo's home number. She is way more accurate when it comes to INFI


Just remember, "the cards don't lie"

The ASH-2s weren't just preorders from Blade. I ordered mine on November 26 and got it in December. It was an unusually short wait on the American Regulators too.
 
Thanks for clarifying, I hadn't been following those threads much since I already want enough blades lol.
 
I ordered my ASH2 on Nov. 27 & received it last week, 4 days before I got my Team Gemini BG that was ordered on Oct. 7.
 
Different thickness offerings of different steels will all have different completion dates not related to order dates, that's just how manufacturing anything works. Trying to figure out when which will happen is an exercise in futility, but it does make for a fun guessing game! For instance, currently 1/4" ratweilers are shipping while 3/16" versions are few weeks out. ;)
 
I'm sure a certain amount depends on what supplies/materials the shop has on hand as well. For example; if a shipment of black micarta is late, they may do a run of G-10 to keep production moving. Unless, of course they're producing their own handles on site & not just machining the blocks sourced from another vendor. I don't pretend to know their manufacturing practices, I'm just guessing.

I think the consensus in this thread is correct. Not only is there no way for us to predict what's next, trying to predict where your order will fall once they start "dinging" is pretty much stabbing in the dark.

Jerry has made subtle comments in a post or two that he is deciding what to release this week, so if I had to guess some of them may already be in production when they are released for OP2WK. Some maybe just got back from Prototyping.

Once people start getting billed it seems to me like a given color blade gets ready, then they start dinging people with that blade color and assembling scales.

I think the ASH 2's are finishing up shipping, I have not seen too many people posting that they didn't get theirs yet. Looking at knives announced before the ASH2, there's quite a bit left to come. Whatever the case it's been loads of fun and marketing genius for Busse Combat.

I still have at least 12 in line to come so my bank account is in no rush :D

Ordered my black/tan G10 on tanker BGTG on 10/7, order acknowledged 10/8/2015; BGTG shipped 1/21/2016.

It was a long two weeks. Don't know if this helps.
 
Ordered black canvas on tanker 3/16" Ratweiler 10/22/2015, dinged 2/19/2016 (TODAY!!!!). Shipped TBD.

Looks like for me 3.5 months, based on two orders. I will have more data points later. :rolleyes:

Talked to Lexi few days ago, she said Boom Parang is atleast 6 weeks out.
(If that helps)

As far as we know, Busse does machine the handle blocks, sourced from outside. According to Garth, they have done a little bit of making their own G10, but it is not a regular thing.

Yes, thank you so much. This is great. I have gotten the blades from October orders and looking to go into November. Yes I cant wait to get the blades but I have gotten so many (more than one blade of more than one model), I am not so much in a hurry to get dinged for them. I would rather them take their time so I keep paying on my Paypal. I have already seemingly paid in enough to get a good used car at this point lol. Its INFI/Crack so I cant get enough and I am fully addicted. There is something about Busse INFI steel that makes me feel all tingly inside. I swear and I have said it before, Jerry is putting some secret government acquired ingredient in these things that makes them so addictive. Cause after one INFI blade touched my fingers, I cant seem to get enough. WANT MORE, MORE.;)

Once the INFI bug subsides, you can really start respecting the razor edge capabilities of Sr101...
