I had the impression that the Chinese was tiny.....Guess I was wrong... just as big as the paramillie.

I love the uncoated clip

Can't wait to get mine

The coated-blade one has a black clip, which is also nice.

Not to derail this thread but may I ask what model the top knife is in the last photo?

Thank you. I like that. Looks like another one to add to the "Wish List".

Great pics Knife stuff. It was this or the Sage 2 or the frn stretch, and i went with the lum because of the VG10 and the good price...

4 days until i acatually touch it... i bought a CE Meadowlark to hold me over

Don't forget, this is a limited sprint run compared to the Sage 2 and FRN Stretch that are going to be normal production models. So good call on getting the Lum, you may not be able to get it for much longer.

I just got the new coated Lum Chinese. I have the black Lum Chinese and it is my EDC. So, I wanted to get the blacked out Lum Chinese. But, the screws are not black like the photos I saw. I am definitely keeping it; just a surprised.

Here is a photo I took for comparison:

Anybody know how I can get blacked out hardware to match the blacked out blade?

Thanks,

You can try by contacting Spyderco. Other than that, I have no clue.

The picture posted earlier in this thread was an obvious "photoshop" job by the dealer from whose site it was lifted and was done using one of the older green or blue Lums. The Lum markings are on the wrong side of the blade and there is no "bug" on the blade. The black hardware was an assumption on that dealer's part, which apparently proved incorrect. I doubt if any actually exists.

Got an email from Cutlery Shoppe that mine went in the mail on Saturday. Gotta leave town on Thursday so I'm hoping the post office comes through with flying colors.
