Spyderco Mouse

How's this for a fast reply? Just happened to be here when you posted. Try Tim Wegner direct at www.blade-tech.com they have them, no discount though. I don't think there's one out there. Doesn't matter, it's worth it. I LOVE this little knife. I have or had the Police, Military, Hunter, Pro-Venator, Rookie, Standard, Endura, Delica, Native... you get the idea. Within its size limits (you won't be blazing any jungle trails) the Mouse is my hands down favorite, it cuts much bigger than it measures. There's nothing about it I don't like (and I'm never satisfied.)
 
Thanks tortoise;

Actually, I expect anywhere but. . . http://www.blade-tech.com/mouse_knife.html

Do yoy think it out-perform the Cricket?
We can buy CF Cricket for the same price. . .

So, nobody else sell this Mouse?

AG Russel has them on their website, at full MSRP though. I don't think they will be discounted much as I think Blade-Tech is the "exclusive" source.

I really want one too

OK, time for my Mouse story!

I was in Utica Square in Tulsa, OK. That's a very upscale outdoor shopping area. I was just walking around with my sister looking in windows. We were walking past one story that was a "bed and bath" store. I barely glanced at it and was moving on. My sister said, "hey, they've got Spyderco's in there." I looked and in one small window was a multiple display case setup. This in a story that sells towels! I look in, expected nothing much, and the world stopped spinning. There had a couple dozen knives in there and many of them were very hard to find models. We went in!

They had even more behind the counter up front. I asked to see the Bob Lum Tanto that was in the case. It was the first one I had ever held. Then we went to look in the front window. I played with a Civilian ($205) and a SpyderRench. There were Shabarias. There was a Blue Native. As I expected, all the prices were high. I finally asked why they were selling these. The woman behind the counter said her son had gotten interested in them and convinced her to sell some. She laughed and said some days the Spyderco sales were all that kept them in business. She said they were the biggest Spyderco dealer in Oklahoma! The daughter was there as well and she said that they had recently become Spyderco Collector's Club members. That's why many of the rarer knives had the number 66 on them. I asked them why they were selling those (with head still spinning) and she shrugged and said that they kept the ones they really liked but sold most of them. I was just sad that prices were so much higher than I wanted to pay; I'm more of a user than a collector.

That's when I saw they had a Mouse. I hadn't held one before so I reached in and snagged it. Then I saw the price on the blade: $64. And it was the numbered version. I asked the daughter about five times if she was really going to sell this numbered mouse to me for that price. She thought about it a few times but she did it! So I didn't exactly shoplift it but it felt like it!!

It's a great little knife. I've had it for three or four weeks now. It is a far superior knife to a Cricket. Very solidly built. Incredibly sharp VG-10 blade with a deep hollow grind blade. The hole is bigger than on my full size Wegner! It would be a great all around carry knife for city people or for people who go on airplanes. I want to try putting a leather "tail" on it like somebody else on the forum did. It really does fit comfortably in the little "watch pocket" on a pair of jeans.

We all get a great deal every now and then! Now if I can talk them out of their Lum Chinese when it comes in!

You should feel guilty, you stole that thing.

I have been carrying mine for about 3 or 4 months. Best little knife I have ever seen.

That was my Mouse with the tail that you saw. They (the tail) are real easy to make if you have the scrap of leather needed.

I saw a Spydie Mouse at BestKnives or Knife Center for $79 last month. I tried to get back and find it again and have had no luck.

I bought mine back in June at the Blade Show in Atlanta straight from Tim Wegner. I had him to sign the box for me. I wouldn't sell mine for any price. I love that little knife with the big blade. It is awesome!

I love this little thing. I don't use it much, but I love it.

It is great to hold, great to use, great to carry.

I really, really like it

Cutler - sal can't send any down under unless we buy them from Tim & send them through SFO. It is Tim's exclusive.

I heard that Michael from Zen was negotiating with Tim to get some down there. If he is not able to work a eal, you might work with Tim direct for a lower quantity?

When we do an exclusive for someone, it is theirs until they discontinue the model.

Santi,
Got your message, I'm traveling at the moment and it's a bit hard to email.
I can ship Thursday when I return. I'll get an e-mail to you regarding ordering.
Thanks
