What Did You Order From The Starter?

Just ordered the GSO 2.7 with camo micarta handles, black oxide screws, flad dark earth kydex and a ferro notch.
Lets hope it will be here at the end of the summer.
 
I ordered up a 12 with natural canvas micarta scales , tumbled hardware, and a black kydex sheath. I can't wait to get this thing and I only ordered it today. If money frees up I'm going to get a 4.7 for my plate carrier too
 
What's coming out first from the starter? I probably missed it but I don't remember hearing which model is coming first.

Depends on what is most popular, for the most part. We already have steel for the mid size knives and it will be pretty easy to get steel for the smaller knives. The GSO-12 is an off size so those sheets are going to have to be specially rolled, putting that one a bit behind regardless. Right now it is looking like the GSO-5.1, followed by the GSO-4.7. Though I haven't checked numbers since the images went up for the GSO-4.7.

Ok cool. Thanks, Ellie! I'm just a lowly Ironworker from NJ BUT if it were ME making the order I'd probably go for the GSO 12 first. Just because.. Uh.. well certainly not because I have one on order 😜

I'm likely gonna jump on and grab a 4.7 too. I hope my wallet can SURVIVE! the starter now.
 
Dude are you serious? You release these modells and my mind starts "well, these knives kick ass" then I start talking to myself "you do not need these, you do not need these ..."

End of the story 4.7 in 3V and 4.7 in S20V preordered and 3.5 as factory 2nd.

Your knives are tough workers with style!

Guy is an evil genius, indeed =)

I added a 4.7 to my starter order! 3v, black micarta handles, tumbled fasteners, black sheath.
 
I did a GSO 2.7 with orange g10. I heard of Survive from a dealer that could of sold me any number of knives but he highly recommended Survive, I hope he is right.
 
I've been wanting that pesky scandi that didn't appear....so I just went with a 12. I need another large choppah in my life.
 
I'm happy to hear the 5.1 may be first to go, I ordered one in 3v, camo g10, and tumbled hardware. I will be getting a scout sheath from Patriot Leather co., formerly skystorm, to accompany the knife.
 
GSO-12, GSO-7/7, GSO-4.7 (x2 - 20cv & 3v)
Not 100% sure on the 4.7 - will it be handle-heavy, is it different enough from the 4.1 to justify the extra weight? But if they're not what I want, I reckon I can always modify or sell them.
 
according to the specs, the 4.1 is 1/4" shorter than the 4.7? I'm going back and forth also. The 4.7 is much beefier.

This is a tough decision! The 4.1 seemed to be one of, if not the, most liked model in the old design line up. That is one thing I keep thinking about. The majority of S! owners
can't be wrong, right?

Although, the 4.7 being a little bigger in every dimension makes me really hope this could be my grail. Without having personally handled either it is hard to say. We will see!
 
I have ordered one of each minus the 12. Now I am thinking I have to have a 12 and kicking myself for not ordering it while I was over the $1000 mark and saving the extra 5%.

The struggle is real! Dang man, I'm jealous that you have that kind of money to dedicate to cutlery =)

Could you sweet talk Ellie into somehow lumping your 12 purchase in with the others? I'm not sure how that would work, but maybe worth sending an email. Maybe they could make a deal for a high roller such as yourself.
 
Urgh I am so weak. I just ordered a 7/7. I do not need it for any practical reason but yeah I did it anyway. Going red micarta scales on this one. I figure its a sexy beast so its gotta be red. That brings my starters to 3 models plus the 4.1 I have.

Just hope Guy does not consider a hatchet next....my marriage won't withstand one more blade for a while...
