    I'm going to "sticky" this thread so it will stay here on the top. I'll update this 1st post weekly to let you guys know what we're preparing for the weekly sale and to announce any upcoming pre-orders.

    20 HDFK in Delta 3V out on the main sale forum, Friday April 13th.

    That might be the last of the HDFK until we can do another proper production run of them, which might be a while...

    Sales are at 3:00 eastern time.


    Since we will finish the EDC 2.0 preorder tomorrow we could start another pre-order. If this sale of HDFK on Friday goes quickly and there appears to be unmet demand we may start another pre-order for more HDFK on Friday.


    ^ Jo and I hope to see you there.







    information about ordering:

    The sale will post out on the main fixed blade for sale by maker area at 3:00 eastern time. That's over here: https://www.bladeforums.com/forums/for-sale-fixed-blades.754/

    This is the last sale for your reference: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/twenty-3-edc-delta-3v.1541590/

    When the sale posts you can order what you'd like by posting it in that sale thread. Sometimes there are more people posting than there are knives available, in that case it is based upon first come first serve. Jo will contact the people with orders to arrange payment and confirm shipping information, usually early the following week after the sale.

    The sales can move fairly brisk so it helps to be there when it opens and post without delay. Because of this, it has evolved that people post blindly then edit their post to reflect their order. For this reason I always post the first sale of a new pattern here on our forum so I can post and lock. This gives people a chance to read about the sale without being in a hurry. Those sales unlock at 3:00. But sales like this EDC that are already an established pattern post without lock out on the main forum at 3:00.

    I'll have to start stretching my index finger out for F5 smashing, I was number 6 on the last Light Chopper sale.

    The sales have been selling out very quickly recently, that is a problem, but we're working on improving our output. :thumbup:

    I expect I'll think some rather unpleasant things in your general direction for jinxing me, replace my keyboard, and wait for the next run [emoji16]

    I recently got a Busse Steel Heart Ergo. Figured that would be my "big knife" until my GSO 10. But, damn, the Light Chopper might be something to pick up.

    Ouch. Literally 15 seconds and they're gone.
    Makes a Busse Ganzaa look like a leisurely purchase. :eek:

    See ya next week then. ;)

    I take it you guys have your posts pre typed then copy pasted as soon as the sale starts. I'm not really in the market for one of these at the moment, as I have two Basic 13s ordered but will be lurking when those field knifes come out.

    Yup. You can't take time to type if you want to get in. They sell out in seconds.
