PM2 Orange back DLC CTS-XHP Exclusive

I relented and got one from CS. Smooth sale. "Needed" a new Halloween knife!

You said they had about half left sometime today. I'm saying they had half left last night. This means there is most likely much less than half left as of when you made that post. Follow? Not rocket science brah.

You're assuming a huge, continuing demand level between 8pm Friday and Noon on Saturday when you made your post. That's very unlikely, especially at this price. Watch the web site and see how long it takes to sell out. I'll bet Roman's bet of five days is the minimum and I wouldn't be surprised if it takes a day or more longer than that.

Yeah maybe. We'll see.

Definitely will see. I think the pricing may have slowed this one down, which is good and bad. Less flipping and longer availability (maybe?) but higher prices for people like you and me. I think I paid $117 for the earlier CS orange Para 2.
 
Someone mentioned on the factory forum that the competition from the (lower priced and arguably higher-performing) S110V production and CPM-M4 exclusives is probably affecting demand for this one, which I would guess is right.
 
That same dealer was selling the PM2 S110V Blue G-10 for $137.50. The upcoming BladeHQ PM2 M4 Jade G-10 will go for $149.99.

I'm sure it is, and the price is too high for me to make an impulse buy. I would buy one at under $150, but for the higher price there are others that I would rather have. I'm not a collector, I look at what it is and if I would want to use it.

Words of wisdom.

I'm not a fan of the Halloween motif. Orange and satin, with a polished stainless clip at $140? Yeah baby. But trick-or-treat at $183.95 shipped? Eh. I'm not anticipating that these will fly off the shelf on the first day.

That price is too rich for me. I m a big fan of the pm2 and a big fan of the vendor. But if I want a quality edc with dlc treated cts xhp steel, I ll go with my CS American Lawman. A comparable knife at 1/2 the price. I ll wait for the other sprint runs from Spyderco in the coming months.

Honestly, if I weren't trying to keep a PM2 collection complete I don't think I'd be buying one. :o
 
Yesterday, the dealer received and then shipped 200 to customers. Another 400 are due in any day now.

I ordered after hours on Friday so I'll be in the next batch. Unfortunately, I probably won't get mine before Halloween!
