S35vn Boker Urban trapper was released this morning.
Black G10 slabs over Blue Ti liners

Who scored one?

I found the G10 version I had a little flimsy, but this is a good look and worth another shot... In for one.
 
What's the ballpark price on one of these ?


Don't start none, won't be none

I am given to understand this is an exclusive for the members of a site wherein members work with vendors to offer a limited run of items at a discounted price (which nine times out of ten, is usually beaten by Amazon LOL). To answer your question, it's under a hundred.
 
I don't want to say a number since they are not supporting vendors, but I will say it was Well Below the $120 msrp.
 
Damn that's a sweet looking knife!
Bill, did you get one??
Joe
 
Two actually, I don't know if they will do another run. So to be safe, I grabbed a spare.
 
Dang, thats hot!

haha looks like they should have coated the blade before sharpening

that edge is coated!

but I like the colors :D
 
I grabbed one! Now the wait until the end of the year for fulfillment...
 
Dammit... Just bought vg10 in cocobolo last week... Might have to order and spin off vg10 in dec...
 
I really wish they had coated the clip too

Yeah, the clip is a real loser, but not a deal breaker. I'm hoping the two hole pattern is the same as the Hinderer clips used on XM knives and the ZT collabs because there are a lot of aftermarket options if that's the case.
 
I got one first thing this morning too. Not totally in love with the particular knife, to be honest, but it looks nice enough, materials are great at that low price and it'll be easy enough to unload if I don't love it with no real harm done. But mainly wanted to encourage them to do more of these poll-driven special editions rather than one HK Axis drop or less-popular Kizer after another (nothing wrong with those knives, of course--just fewer and fewer desirable off-the-shelf models that are not limited by MAP these days).

They do a nice job of that sort of thing in some of the other areas of the site, so glad to see them starting to do it with EDC.
 
And...They're sold out. Just about 36 hours for 1000 pieces...and this is a Boker, not a Spydie! Wow, impressive!
 
I wish I could have scored one. One of my favorite knives ever has been the regular Urban Trapper, and that would have been a sweet pair :)
 
I managed to score one, now to wait and see how it is in person later this year when they get shipped. It's great to see more knives getting limited versions with s35vn.
 
Dammit.
Dammit.
Dammit.

I can't believe I missed out on this one. My current VG10 Urban Trapper has found a semi-permanent home in my right back pocket. I'm pretty OK with the one I have, but having one in S35vn would have been one heckuva score.
 
Any idea for a shipping date?
I heard mid-late December being thrown around, but nothing concrete.
 
They were planning on a full 21 Day window for the drop to be open. That was the reason they picked the mid-December ship date. Now that the drop closed in a day and a half, that's nearly three weeks earlier that they can forward the order to Boker. That might save some time and push the fulfillment back to the original November window.

Right now there seems to be a strong push to replace the stock clip with either blue anno'd one or a black one (along with black screws). It'll be interesting to see if they respond to customer requests and modify the design. My concern would be they'd be defaulting on those who joined the drop wanting silver clip and screws...
