Wrong answer
: )
There is a proper time and place for everything. As far as the latter goes, after all, this IS the "Spyderco 2019 Lists: Delivered & Upcoming" thread, not the "Spyderco 2019 Lists: Delivered and Let's Guess What's Upcoming" thread.

Para3 CTS-BD1N Black FRN is at some European dealers. I recall Sal saying they were dropping some models in Europe first. Anyway, it shouldn't be too long now for the U.S.
Why don't they hit (get released) the US dealers first? It is a US company and its not like they couldn't all be released on one date anyway.
Probably because Spyderco knows the American market is a sure thing on this release. The European market could be iffy due to laws. This way they will know how many knives to release to us (and hold in storage for the next release) based on good or bad sales to Europe. This is just a wild guessWhy don't they hit (get released) the US dealers first? It is a US company and its not like they couldn't all be released on one date anyway.

I believe that they are shipping some to dealers this week.
Im looking for a slicer... I want a kapara, but I see theyre out of stock everywhere. How long have these been out of stock for? Weeks? Months? Just wonderimg if I should hold out or get something else.... Looking at the Caribbean too. Love the steel and the geometry. I really only buy tai Chung spydercoss. Also whats up with the paysan? Ive never waited so long on a knife. Thoughts or info anyone on any of this?
Well damn "maybe 6 months!" They better fast track that cuz people are hungry for these things.... That bein said thats good news about the paysan... Thats gonna be a really great knife. I find 6 months on those kapara hard to believe now that I think about it.... Although... what do I knowWhen I was at the Oregon Knife Show last weekend, the Spyderco rep I talked to said he didn't know when Kaparas would be back at dealers. He said "maybe" 6 months.
The Paysan however should be dropping pretty soon, from what I heard there. Fingers crossed!

FWIW - The Para 3 LW did drop, as in for sale, and quickly sold out, yesterday on the Spyderco website.
It's still available there in SpydieEdge at this moment; plain edge is sold out.
