Thanks for the commiseration, everybody. Misery loves company

What version did you get OP?

Well, my Delica 4 was being called into duty as my running/biking knife, so I needed something to replace it for EDC. I got the 555HG model, and it's going straight into my EDC set:

My Delica was FFG- which was perfect for what I needed it for- so I actually like the Mini Grip's hollow grind. I haven't really been able to use it yet, but I will :thumbup:

Yeah waiting is the worst part... I like to read reviews and see pictures and watch youtube videos.

Since it is a minigrip, here is some pictures for you

Cool thumbstuds, did you just modify the stock thumbstuds that came on the knife?

Yep waiting is a pain. I have a Para 2 ctsxhp on the way from a fella in the states, I can hardly contain my excitement

I just Recently Had To Wait For My Spyderco Chokwe, But It Was So Worth It.
And Now I'm Waiting For A Couple Knives From A Trade To Come In!
Will The Madness Ever End?!
And Good Choice On That Mini-Grip. I Had The Large Grip - The Same As Your Mini.
Awesome Knives. But By Trading Mine, I Ended Up With a Sage 2, So It Was So Worth It Lol.

I never ever have enough money to buy all the ones I want.

Thanks- I'm really liking it! I'm still not sure how it stacks up to my Delica, but I'm liking it more and more every minute I carry it.

Good choice. I like this model too.

Here's my 555 with a black blade and Kevin Wilkins scales.

I was thinking about getting the black blade, but I'm just too finicky about coatings, I'd go crazy as soon as it'd start to scuff. At least I can just buff out a satin finish

But those scales... I'm jealous of those scales!

The wait for the bladeforums blue skyline in s30v is gonna suck for me. gonna be a good one

I don't mind waiting. its never all that long of a wait to begin with and I think it builds excitement
