Two of them already on an auction site....$180 and $250.

Just checked out of curiosity - there are nine listed as of now.

This knife came out beautifully. Thanks to Charlie and Barry for all the work that went into putting it together.

That is Ridiculous. Boycott them on there!

Why? It's a fair auction.

Can we please dispense with the eBay sightings and discussions of flipping in general? There's a place for it in Feedback. If you're that bothered by it, please take it there. Thanks.

Just a friendly reminder. One of my posts on the topic was removed the other day, so I'm not innocent either.

Thanks, Ryan.
By rights, threads about purchasing don't belong in this sub-forum at all. We make exceptions for the forum knife. All we ask is that posts regarding flipping, ebay or otherwise, be made in Feedback.
Sometimes posts get moved, sometimes not. I spend a lot of time on an Android tablet or phone and the mechanics of moving stuff can be a pain, and lead to mistakes, without a physical keyboard. At least for my old fumbling fingers...

Mine is currently flying over the USA...she will probably refuel before crossing the Ocean...

I came home today to the wonderful surprise from Washington State - Thanks, Barry - she arrived safe and sound.

And what a beauty - as Charlie says on the back label - I am sure this knife will provide a lifetime of use. Mine is absolutely perfect.

fit and finish is good, walk and talk is pretty close to perfect.
balance point on mine is at the top of the line carved in the bolster, so it has a nicer hand feel than I expected out of a knife this small and light.
touched up the edge to knock off the burr, stropped it a little, and it's ready to drop in a pocket tomorrow for work.

Have they all shipped yet? I never received a shipping notification?

 

[Stretcher]

Got my first knife of the year yesterday, and couldn't be happier. I want to thank all those who made this gem appear in my mailbox, and patiently helped me through the process.

I just received my package, opened one and it's pretty sweet! I love how thin it is and the micarta looks even better in person!

I edited because it should be on feedback

Thanks for the heads up and being reasonable. It is labeled as a purchasing thread so a natural thought for some may be that is ok to discuss this on here. I think most of us are not intentional offenders and do not want the Forum Police on us. Thanks again.

Unfortunately no. They sold out in about two days - which is actually longer than many expected.

If you keep your eye on the exchange, you may get one at a reasonable price.
