Like I bought a new car in 2015, but it was actually a 2016 model and would not be considered for the 2015 car of the year...
I was going to bring up this point in the other thread but figured there's no sense in arguing about it. It's all good!
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

National Knives still has a few:

Not getting the CF/M4 para 2. :(


Doesn't seem like there are any to be bought on the secondary market either.

I only sorta regret it, but I sold a 440V Chinook I for "new-shotgun funds".

It was a grail of mine for several years, but after the honeymoon phase passed, I didn't carry or use it.


Now that I think about it, I really regret not buying one of Country Knives' Lum Tanto folders. Now they are gone at prices <$400.

My biggest regret is probably that I had already bought the K2 and Chubby before they went on closeout. This year I won't buy the models that I have marginal interest in until/unless they are on closeout. Big waste of money otherwise!
