Firefly 119 on Amazon
Now down to $116... That's crazy.
Wow that’s tempting... anyone have one? Like it?
It's a great little knife and I'd buy it again at this price. Someone once said it felt kinda like a mini GB1 in hand and I agree. I carry it clipless.

I agree with abbazaba....great little knife especially at that price. I don't carry and use mine a lot but that's only because I have several other knives that are similar in size competing with it. My only complaint about the knife is the tiny little clip. I bent mine out a little bit to make it more useable. It works much better now but still too small IMO. The short Dragonfly clip would've been a big improvement.

That was me. :) The Firefly is a great little knife, I still carry mine semi-regularly.

Checked out the PM2 in the sale. It’s only a few cents cheaper than Amazon’s price.

Looks like they had 15 to sell. I missed getting one when these dropped so I made a purchase as well.

I wonder if there will be more of these trickling out like the REX 45?

On the bright side, when the knives arrive you'll be able to cut your bills in half.

I'm pretty sure those are readily available at a lower price. Not really a "crazy deal"

My order for the Para 3 Maxamet was cancelled. Anyone else have this happen?

Seller listed a reason of "Buyer requested to cancel" which is a lie.

What's the seller's name?

I had that happen to me recently. I put a $40 bid on a brand new VG-10 Manbug (that's about $10 under MAP) and won. Then I got a notification saying the seller cancelled it, and gave me my money back. I forget what the reason was but I was not favorably impressed.

Mine shows as shipped.

I've had good experiences with this seller (Belote) in the past.

I wonder if they just screwed up their inventory and sold more than they had in stock, and aren't going to 'fess up?
