JJR512,
Yes, that Sportsman's Warehouse. I found out about it through Leatherman's chat support thing. I asked them who else had exclusive colors, and they told me
What else did they tell you? I recently emailed them with a similar question, and this is what they told me.
1. The green version is exclusive to Pacific Flyway Wholesale. I haven't dome any further research on this, but I assume that this wholesaler supplies Sportsmans Warehouse. The Leatherman rep was unaware of Sportsmans Warehouse so it doesn't seem like it was created just for them, and it may be possible that other retailers sell the green version as well.
2. The red version is exclusive to REI.
3. The orange and red version is exclusive to Cabelas.
4. The all black version and the tan version are available to any retailer, exclusive to nobody.
5. The all-orange version was never actually mass produced. Only samples and prototype were made, some (maybe all?) of which were distributed to reviewers. I don't know how many were made. I'm told that they decided not to produce the all-orange version due to quality issues.
6. The rep I spoke to said he vaguely recalls having once seen a blue-handled Raptor, but he has no information on it. Leatherman never mass produced a blue version according to their records, so it may have been a prototype.
I would dearly love to get my hands on an all-orange version as a collectible. I would also like Leatherman to make a blue-handled version, especially if it's the blue from the Star of Life. I feel this version would have a special appeal to EMTs.
If you want me to get you one, if they're still available, let me know. Shipping would probably be around $6 by USPS.
I found one that has them in stock. I tried the Portland store, because I was actually going to ask you about getting one and sending it to me. When I was talking to someone in the store on the phone, though, I mentioned what I was planning, and he actually said they could send it to me directly. He put me in touch with a manager, and they said they can't process a credit card transaction over the phone anymore due to new safety restrictions. So he said I should buy a gift card online, and when I receive it, call them back and they can process the transaction with the gift card over the phone. They have one set aside for me. Thanks, though, I appreciate the offer! If there are any complications, I'll let you know.
