    Welcome! Good choices, those are the Monarch, Wasp, and Sneaky Pete.

    Here's a link for the thread which has more details and where you can try to snag one of them when it unlocks at 3PM EST.

    Hah!

    So is it an Asp or a Wasp? What's the difference?! I thought the Wasp blade a straighter lines.

    Also, no one has mentioned the Hunter, but I think that one is a beauty as well! I got to hold @thurin's Hunter, and I was impressed. :thumbsup:

    Clear as day when side by side for sure! I think I've only ever seen the Wasps that were swedged with a straight 'edge'. Don't see that pattern very often either way. Cool! Thanks.

    And the Sneaky is 'deeper' and a bit longer, correct?

    I've got a hunter in bloodwood. It's a good fit for me. Stunning and nice balance. (second from top). The hunter in this sale thread is a beauty for sure!

    Nice bloodwood collection man! I was surprised by the Hunter, it isn't as big as it looks in pictures. Feels great in hand.
