Stretch 2 XL Gray G-10 Cru-Wear up on the Spyderco site

[King of the Cheese]

I’ve been checking and the cru-wear stretch XL has hit the Spyderco site for purchase. Pretty excited to get mine! If you’re waiting for them to hit distributors, should be there soon I’d guess.

Their g10 slabbed back lock knives are awesome. I think I’ll wait for them to hit dealers.

I’ve got the Stretch in K390, I’m good with that, besides, the XL isn’t far from a Military and I’ve got a Military in cruwear, so I’m covered

Awesome looking knife.

This is one I've been watching for. I like most everything about it for a big folder. If it was the exact size as the Stretch 2 in K390 I'd not even hesitate.

Had it for a month and _love_ it. Up on DLT today, just got my backup.

Whatcha think of it? I can’t now, but in a few weeks I’ll be picking one of these up. Hopefully they’ll still be around then.

It's great. Not supposed to be a sprint, so they should be at dealers on and off.

You know I love Cruwear. This G10 2XL is very well built: the blade feels like a Military blade but thinner/slicier; the handle is a little smaller than the Military. The built is great, the entire back (lock and spacer) are steel, like in - say - the G10 Police.

I’m a BIG fan of Spydie back locks. I think half of the ones I own are back locks.

Can you snap a pic of the 2XL next to a Police or a Military?

I got mine today. Same weight as a police g10 basically, but the blade isn’t obnoxiously long. It’s like a longer narrower backlock PM2 I’d say. It’s a great feeling knife. I like it better than the straight spine FRN stretch.

I know it’s sacrilege, but I’m thinking about sending mine off to get a cerakote with a sort of “Star Wars” motif. Either stormtrooper (white scales, black blade, liners, clip, and hardware) or Sith Lord (red blade and hardware, black scales, liners, pocket clip).

Thanks, that really puts it in to perspective!

I'm very interested in this knife. I've heard reports that the edge of the blade makes contact with the lanyard tube when the knife is closed. Any insights into this? If you own one, what are your experiences?
