Took the torsion bar out today. But liked it more with than whitout. It just gives you that nice flick.
The detent ball is really good though!
 
I got on Dave's list. I'll just have to be patient, but at least I'll have quality customer service :)
 
Got shipping confirmation email from Newgrahm. Yay.

Can anyone post a comparison pic with the 0566 and either/both Cryo 2 and Thermite to tide me over?
 
Mine will be here today.
mattDtactical still shows in stock. I think they have 2 or 3 left.
 
Just got the last one from GoingGear. It's been shipped already O.O Can't wait for Tuesday.
From what I can tell at this point it will go into my pocket immediately.
 
I hate it that the local dealer (for the dutch guys here, knivesandtools) hasn't got it in stock. It says 70+ days to be back in stock :(.
Cant wait!
 
Mine is #0845. So far the size is much more suitable for carry when compared to the 560. Although I have giant hands and the 560 fits well, for some reason the 566 seems better. I like the lighter weight and the edge is suitably sharp. The G-10 scale is a little slick compared to the honeycomb scale of the 560 though. This is also the first Elmax for me and I will be testing the edge longevity as I do with all my knives, opening paper rolls at work. This is heavy kraft paper similar to the back cover of a wirebound notebook. Typically .014-.028" in thickness, this is a hard test to pass for most knives as they only make it through about a week or so then start to lose bite. So far , my all time leader is the large Sebenza in S35. Fresh from the spa, it has gone a full 30 days and still does fine although not shaving hair now. :)
