I hear a rumor that the chicago and the cat have been discontinued yesterday has anyone heard if its for sure?
 
i heard it had something to do with building costs and the quality coming from the manufacturer in Taiwan, i guess they used a different manufacturer than the sage series?
 
they have both been discontinued and there are none in the warehouse.

i received an email/letter stating this and the reasons. ill post it if i get a go from a spyderco mod.
 
Thanks for the heads-up.

I just read this and got a Cat on order right away, whew! I was going to wait until the next batch, but I guess there may not be any more. I view the Cat as something of a mini-Sage 1. Nice design.
 
Except it's made in a different factory...and that's the problem

Yep... a problem making such a knife and selling it for such a modest price.

For those who have Cats... it's a great catch for the money.

Perhaps Sypderco will make a new run, even if they must sell the new run a higher price point... we'll see.
