They are there with the wrenches allright. But it took forever for them to get a chance to get their wrenches in there.
And i know it Will be Worth the wait.
Expensive plastic and obsoletetish steel for shure(VG 10) but NIB straight from the cows teat.
It's the design that triggered me, and i don't mind VG 10.

That Kapara looks intriguing. I’d love to hold one sometime! Congratulations on your order, these didn’t take long to sell out.
I’ve got a Brouwer in my incoming mail, and my Sliverax is in the outgoing mail. For me, the Sliverax was a miss. Too many things bothered me about the design/material. Nice design overall, though.

Just ordered a Stretch 2 to try out as a work beater. It'll be my first Stretch 2, and my first FRN Stretch of any sort. Excited to try it out. The ergonomics and VG10 steel should work nicely for me.

I regret never trying that model. Looks like a very practical design.

Courious how you'll like it. I just wished the blade of the FRN model would be as long as the one in the G10 model.
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

I see what you mean. Looking at mine it feels like they could have fit a little more cutting edge in there.

Either way, I'm really enjoying the ergonomics. I find the handle much more comfortable than my Pacific Salt. Ground pretty thin behind the edge too.

Yes, the ergos are great; It´s just that they actually DO fit more cutting edge in the G10 model; but that makes the blade over 3.5 in length, and so the knife illegal to carry in more places as far as I understand. These knife-laws are crazy, really.

One of the last Cutlery Shoppe orange Manix 2 LW S90V knives... purchased less than 24 hours before they sold out. It would be here today, if not for President's day. I'm gettin' the withdrawal shakes, tomorrow needs to hurry up!

Nice! You'll be surprised at how unobtrusively it carries. Despite its size it really almost disappears in the pocket.

Wow, the last 20-30 of those went quick! I bought one a couple months back. Did you know they’re doing a DLC run of the LW S90V? Being a sucker for DLC I’d have waited for that version, but this works.

Haha, they know how to sell em! I hope Tuesday comes quickly for you. I’m glad my Brouwer got here on Saturday, or I’d be in the same boat. Holidays are no holiday when you’re waiting on a knife :P
