The Dodo, ATR, Paramilitary and Yojimbo...

V-1 · Jun 30, 2003

...are all models I'm anxiously awaiting! These all look like they will be on the cutting edge of knife design, material's use and manufacturing techniques. Looks like 2003 will be a good year for Spyderco. You can tell their R & D Dept has been working hard in Golden, Co. I can't wait until these start showing up at retailers. It looks like some new knives will be entering my edc rotation.

Any idea if all of these models will be released by the end of the year? I know the Dodo should be shipping shortly w/ the ATR to follow.

The ATR should be out this week, too.

The Yojimbo is the knife I am most looking forward to, production OR custom.

Yowzers.

It exists. It's been sighted before...but so has bigfoot.

From the reports I've read online from people who have seen it at knifeshows, it sounds like it will be well worth the wait. I'm sure I'll be using it much longer then I waited for it.

so is it still going to be out before dec? or has it been pushed back?

Curious2003,

Of course I'm not Sal (or my continuous presence at the Benchmade forum would be suspect), but which knife are you asking about? The Yojimbo, the Paramilitary, or the ATR? The folks at the Spyderco Outlet said the ATR has been delayed a few weeks, but should be out this month. If it's one of the others, please specify.

Dodos are shipping now, ATR's are shipping now. Yojimbos and ParaMilitarys are waiting for a pilot run.

In best Homer Simpson voice... "Mmmmmmmmmmm... Dodo!!!"

Serves me right for calling on a Monday.

I'm with Homer and Fozzy on this one. Mmm... Dodo...

Spyderco is fast making a hot-cereal and Ramen noodle lover out of me.

Sounds good to me. Two out the door, two in line ready to go next. Since they are waiting for the pilot run I'll have some time to recover from the Dodo and the ATR.

It seems I need to head down to the local knife shop!

Easyrider,

You may want to wait a little while. The first shipments are to members of the collector's club.
