I got all 25 the first time through, and I'm headed back over. :D :eek:

Some of the best deals that I got:

$100 S90V/154CM Para 2
$80 S90V Para 2 (old one)
$40 G10 Poliwog
$50 204P Para 2
$2 double-stuff pocket stones
$2 Byrd Duckfoot
50-cent UF rods

Of course, meeting with Sal and Gail was one of the best parts. Sal gave me a quick tour of his personal knife testing facility, including the Spyderco CATRA machine. Thanks Sal! :D

GS, that is a stupid, ridiculous, unheard of haul. Congrats on the sweet finds and getting the tour was icing on the cake.

Thanks guys!

A few other fun ones to find:

$55 Forum Native S110V
$65 Moonglow Native (super happy about this one)
$55 Elmax PM2
$40 Bob Terzuola Slip It

I guess sleeping out was worth it. I know, POIDH, so here are a few to tide you over until I can take some pics of the loot.

I picked up 20 knives (+1 more when I returned to get my jacket), a double stuff, and a complete set of rods (ultra fine, fine, medium and 2 sets of diamond). Got some good gifts and snagged a Cruwear Military for a friend. They still had a few Cruwear Millies at the end, so there might be a few at the next 2nds sale.

I think the best part about the factory seconds is that you wouldn't mind thumping on them as users since, as collector pieces, they wouldn't have the same value.
Current favorite: Manix 2 with carbon fiber scales and cru-ware.

Kyle, were you the one with the $40 Caly 3 Damascus? Either way, awesome find!

Here's my load. If you would be so kind, please don't add up the prices, because it is rather embarrassing. :o

Here are the ones I'm keeping. The pink Native, Dragonfly Tattoo, and Centofante Memory were found and claimed by my mom. The 154CM Manix is going to be a gift to my dad.

Image

Here are the ones I'm sending out. Liquid Cobra, Xceptnl, and Holland, expect to receive a PM shortly. LC got a PM2 satin/camo and a green g10 UKPK. Xceptnl got a Shempp Rock with sheath and a ZDP-189 Dragonfly. Holland got a G10 Dragonfly. Everyone will get a few 50 cent sharpening sticks. :)

Don't ask. ;)

GS you are a monster. Jealousy isn't even the word. Congrats on all those legendary scores, though jabba gets the gold for self control and still comes out with a nice haul. I love me a Cruwear Military!

GS,

I know you said don't ask but I gotta know the details on that necklace. I've seen someone wearing one before...just one man.

People who wait overnight outside Apple stores for the latest iPhone are crazy. Outside Spyderco HQ for seconds? Crazy like a fox! Color me green with envy.
