Does anyone know when this knife comes out? It's got carbon fiber scales and an m4 blade, looks pretty sweet. Anyone know anything about it?
 
It might be listed as a pre-buy for the second run of them. The first run is pretty much gone. You can find them in the "for sale" forums and on flea bay.

More should be coming very soon. Our little Taiwanese brothers and sisters are working on them.
 
Yup, I'm on the second run waiting list at knifecenter. Was supposed to be shipped at the end of September, then it was bumped to the end of October. I've heard that this wasn't the first time the date has been bumped. But I'm comfortable waiting for a ~$100 knife of this caliber instead of buying one of the overpriced resales.

Cannot wait. Very awesome combination for the price.
 
Talked to a guy at the Factory Outlet on the phone last week and he said they are here, but waiting on a QC inspection before being released. I have an order in at the Knifecenter myself.

Wow. I love this knife...but I'd wait till they come back into stock, which they will definitely do. In the meantime, these threads have some info from Gayle Bradley to hold the OP over :)

I bought one NIB a couple of months ago here on Bladeforums for $120. Be patient (and vigilant!) and one will pop-up again soon, they always do.
 
Really, 12/09? I held one in my hands at Spyderco in Golden on the Fourth of July, '09. Now I feel all special.:)
 
This second run has been long coming. An an owner of the Gayle Bradley I can say it will be worth the wait. It's a special knife. The thin hollow grind, the M4 steel, the thick liner lock and the carbon fiber scales. I almost wish they would change something minor on this second run so I could justify getting another! I don't think that will happen though.
 
I had one back in the day. Traded it for an Emerson CQC-10 just to try out an Emerson. But I will admit, the Spyderco GB was the far superior knife in almost every aspect, especially fit/finish and factory sharpness.
