I highly doubt that. Most places have already sold out. Once it sells out it will be done like most sprints.I predict these will be stock for weeks if not longer.
As for DLT, this was the answer they gave me via email 5 days ago when i was still hunting for one. sounds like they might be one of the later dealers to get any in stockThey're slowing showing up at different dealers. I snagged one at smkw while they had some, it's on its way now. Just keep a keen eye out at different dealers
I’m not sure how allocation is handled.
But most of the smaller shops have sold all they had. This is a Sprint run...Not the Paysan which is a production piece and will sell for awhile. So allocation to each Dealer is much smaller
Already sold out at DLT Trading, GP Knives, New Graham, St. Nicks, Blade Ops, House of Blades and most of the other smaller shops.
Basically leaving the super stores like Blade HQ, Knife Center and maybe a couple of other stores.
Total on these are 1000-1200ish. The 200 over is to take into account the Collectors Club also. Now divide that by how many dealers want some of these in the U.S. alone, not to mention the rest of the shops around the world!
Blade HQ and Knife Center will easily get around 200 each....so there’s 400 gone.
I also noticed most of the smaller dealers received there batch first. Leading me to believe that Spyderco is filling the larger orders to Big Box stores last. Once they hit BHQ, KC, KSF, KP, KJ that will be the last of them....then gone forever.
I'm not sure about weeks but I really don't think it will be hours as is sometimes the case. It's a hefty chunk of change and it's not the only knife people want. I want one but I won't cry if I miss it. The price will see to that. Do I want to go down the rabbit hole of buying Shaman sprints on top of the others. A little voice is telling me "stay away from the light".I predict these will be stock for weeks if not longer.
"Havoc" Please address my question: Where did you get those stock numbers? Where are you getting information that BladeHQ and KnifeCenter are getting 200 each and all the other dealers get to fight over the scraps? Or are you just making it up?
