Re: Rhino
That sounds perfectly normal to me, Jazz. :) I don't think it's weird. I generally do the same when I see new designs. I am hoping someone can do a nice video presentation of the Rhino when it comes out. That would be helpful, I think.Jazz wrote:I can't wait to see some pics and vids of this knife. I'm pretty sure I want it, but want to see more. I'm weird that way.

Re: Rhino
It sounds like we are getting very close, Roman. We just learned yesterday that it is about a "month(ish)" away from being available! :Dbh49 wrote:Are we there yet?

Re: Rhino
That is very kind of you, KnickKnackCity. I deeply appreciate the nice words and support. :) I was hoping to see the Rhino by Christmas, so the possibility of seeing it in Aug. or Sept. is definitely exciting! :D :DKnickKnackCity wrote:No problem at all!

Re: Rhino
@ i am travvy -- Thanks, man. :) I'm fairly eager to see these too. Looking at my old pictures makes me want one even more, lol. Maybe in a few more weeks (give or take)?
@ clovisc -- Yes sir, in fact I think I'll take the pocket clip off of mine and just carry it loosely in my pocket. I carried my original prototype by this method for a while and was quite pleased with it.

Re: Rhino
I've been out of knives for a while but this knife calls to me. Can't wait!
Re: Rhino
I was very interested in this design early on when I saw it....and I LOVE CTS-BD1 steel....I think it will work great on a small folder such as this. Congrats again on the collaboration, Michael! Looking forward to trying one myself!

I hope these drop very soon. A small compression lock folder, will make a great birthday gift for my soon to be 8 year old son.

Re: Rhino
It was a month-ish to release a month ago. So now maybe it's just -ish?
Re: Rhino
That would be great...I always get it in my head that all the early releases will be out before the mid years start to drop, but we all know that's not the case...can't wait for the Rhino myself....only spydie I've ever ordered two of right off the bat...one of those , no matter what else I'm carrying, this will be one of them knives.

In my opinion, pre-ordering is a waste of effort. The few times that I've pre-ordered knives, I ended up snagging one sooner and cancelled my pre-order.
