Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
Just realized how much more KSF is charging. $199 there. It’s $169 at GPknives:

Looking forward to trying it out. I’ve heard nothing but good about it. Are you carrying it horizontal?rgc wrote: ↑Fri Nov 11, 2022 6:11 pmI have yet to find a handier fixed blade (I carry it with the leather sheath). Mine is M390 in a dual finish he did a long time ago.

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
Yes. His leather sheath is excellent for carrying just to the left of the belt buckle. Thanks to my, umm, impressive gut, it hides right under a t-shirt.Ranger_Ike wrote: ↑Fri Nov 11, 2022 6:29 pmLooking forward to trying it out. I’ve heard nothing but good about it.

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
The SOG home page has a 40% off sale if you use code MWR40. If you have been curious about SOGs current Taiwan made knives, now is your chance. I’m trying out a Pentagon XR folder for $54. G10 & XHP.

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
Chaves G10 knives are on sale at multiple popular knife stores. 25% off, pretty good discount.
Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
There is a pretty awesome Ka-Bar sale going on right now: 50% off of most in-stock items at kabar.com. It's 50% off of MSRP, but still works out to some solid savings over normal retail pricing. Ends today (Nov 16) at 11:59 pm EST.

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
Hopefully anyone that ordered from this sale got shipping notices. If you didn't it's probably because your order was backordered and they didn't update you order status page. Took me over two hours on hold to find out my order was backordered. So I canceled then found out it's going to take them another 21 days to refund my money. Yeah they charge before they ship. Never again. I hate doing business with companies that charge before they ship.

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
Ha, well that explains why I did not get a shipping notice. It was my first time ordering from them, so I had no idea of their practices. FYI, SOG is now owned by the same company that swallowed Cold Steel.harpo1 wrote: ↑Wed Nov 16, 2022 1:19 pmHopefully anyone that ordered from this sale got shipping notices.

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
I ordered a Terminus on Monday after seeing your post Jim. Radio silence from SOG all week until I finally received a shipping notification at 230 am this morning (Friday). Certainly not the timeliest service, but with the significant discount.. ehh, i'm ok with it. Hopefully you get your shipping notice soon as well!JRinFL wrote: ↑Wed Nov 16, 2022 1:55 pmHa, well that explains why I did not get a shipping notice.

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
Still nothing from SOG. I regret having sent any business their way. I can understand a delay if it is out of stock, I cannot accept radio silence.

Yeah it's been a week since I spoke with them and cancelled my order. They still show it as awaiting shipping. So I disputed the charge with my bank.

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
My order from SOG is allegedly out for delivery today. 1 out of 3 orders fulfilled is definitely not a good look for the company..

Re: Crazy Deals that are Non Spyderco
GSM is a terrible company for support. It's one of the first things they rip out of whoever they have absorbed. I'm sure it looks great on their quarterly reports, but it is bad for consumers and employees.

Still radio silence from SOG. I did not spend a lot and I have protections, but I'm going to wait it out for science, or something.

these are some pretty solid wireless earbuds for only $10. I usually carry some with me at work and at the gym.
Realized I forgot mine on my way to work earlier today so I swung by the Walmart on my commute to grab a pair. Was expecting to pay $25 so I picked up two pairs at this price.
