Hello all, I picked up this little Strider the other day and I'd like to know more about it. All I know is that it's a PT with a recurve blade. Not sure how old it is or what Generation it is. Blade steel? Rarity? Thank you.

1st mention of one I found was 2005, but some of the recurves are pimped not factory

The Strider logo looks like it was done with a laser
Tumble finish
Probably S30V
My guess is it might be from one of the last batches before they changed the pivot to the current design.

Thank you for all the info. Safe to say it had to be at least about 10 year old, right? I’m not a huge fan of the recurve but I wanted a PT and I was having such a hard time finding one so when this came up I jumped on it. I also have an SnG CC with the regular Spear Point so it kinda mixes the collection up a little. Thanks again.

I'd say that is about right. I saw posts of people getting the new pivot about 8 years ago. They don't make runs of the PT that often-especially back then, so add another year or 2 for the last of the old pivots.Safe to say it had to be at least about 10 year old, right?
