Can it be?

It looks like KC has some inventory of Paradigm Pros.

I don't see the old verbage about pre-release.
 
I've been adding stuff to my ageing Paradigm Pro order while waiting. I even added a couple things today. You know, in order to save a few dollars on shipping, and, well, uh, hmmm, I have needs.

I get so many compliments on the BuckLite Max Large Orange, 486, which I EDC that people insist that I get them one. I wanted to keep one as a backup but that one keeps getting put into the hands of admirers.
 
They will have lots of them now as they will not send ANY knives to NY anymore!!!!!! There goes my back order!!! They cancelled it!!! These are NOT illegal here, but they are scared about what the NYC DA is doing !!! I don't live in NYC and every store around here sells AOs.
 
Probably, there's even been some showing up on Ebay (16 at last count).

man they must be hot cause when I checked, only 4 sellers. Be out of stock soon enough with all you guys out there chompin at the bit:) Some sellers are thinking pretty highly of their products though-$30 highly:eek:

Seems to me like there were four sellers that had a total of 16 available and yes, they were real proud of them! :eek:

It brings to mind when the 110 and 112 Eco's first hit eBay. They sold like hotcakes at dang close to Buck's retail list price. Shortly after that first bunch, saner minds prevailed and they dropped to a more reasonable "street price".:thumbup: That will more than likely happen with the Paradigm also.

:thumbup: thats my thought as well. I am going to wait awhile and see how low I can go :D Now that they seem to be around more and more, I am not too worried about them going the way of the Sawbys ;)

I hope the Supreme court ruling yesterday concerning handguns makes these un- American laws disappear. :D

I am sorry to hear of your troubles. I bet you never thought that a standing order would go unfulfilled due to a change in the law.

My Paradigm Pro has shipped. However, I bot the last BuckLite Max Large Orange (486) and now have a new (one more 486) order on hold. Now, uhh, hmmm, what will I add to that one...
 
With the spring tension "screw" on the fixed bolster, opposite side from sliding opening, locking bolster, it keeps (after a several times of opening the blade up), it loosens up slightly, cause play in the bolster and slight play in the blade. Anyone else find this to be true with their knife.
I'm not real happy with this, since it is a BUCK, it should hold up a bit better I would think.
I wrote BUCK, they said to send it back, for adjustment whatever, but I live in Thailand and they said it would be six weeks at least for repair time, if needed:grumpy:

You could always just add a drop of Loctite to the screw or a wrap of teflon tape and take care of the problem. I've done it on more than one AO in my collection
