Hey guys, I was looking to get my first Spydie and the one that's caught my eye is the Perrin PPT, but everywhere I've tried it's either back-ordered or out of stock. Does anyone know where I can get one or what the hold up seems to be? Any info is appreciated.

Probably the same problem with other popular Spyderco knives - the supply chain is not capable of keeping up with the demand. The GB, Para 2 and a few others have recently suffered that fate.

The PPT is a fantastic knife for EDC if you can handle the weight. The size is right and the way it works when deploying the blade is quite amazing and the F&F is on par with the Gayle Bradley too. It is truly a one handed knife, especially for the right handers.

Thanks guys, I'll have to check out that site. :thumbup:

The knife looks rock solid, and I'm digging the blade shape.

Does anyone have a photo of the PPT in hand, and/or possibly next to a Gayle Bradley? I'm really into the PPT, but am worried the blade may be short.
 
I have these handy - hope they help a little:

Hm, I was looking into this knife a bit further before I made a purchase, and I am left-handed. I was looking at the clip in a youtube vid and it seems that it's non-reversible. Also, the protruding framelock/linerlock looks like it could be problematic for a lefty as well as the spydie-hole. Does anyone left-handed have any experience with this knife? I don't mind so much about the clip, as I would have no problem taking it off and carrying it deep in the pocket, but the other issues concern me. Thanks.
