Some part believes and really fears that the Bradley 2 will be discontinued this year or the next.

[cabfrank]

I really hope the Pacific Salt is one that doesn't belong on that list.

[Robbob]

The 2 should be coming soon, although I know people love the Endura 3 ergos.

Do you think this fear comes from the newly CQI'ed Advocate, or because there will be another Bradley folder released?

Funny you say that, I had an odd feeling about that knife as well so during a recent eBay coupon deal, I also made an offer to the seller, got one brand new for $119. It's a lot different than any of my other Spydercos. Classy look but tough like a PM2. Will be sad to see it go if it does.

I think I read that Sal said both would be produced for a while. I'm definitely not against the 2, but for now, I know for sure I love the original.

He has said as much, so I hope the 1 sticks around until such time. The Pacific Salt does seem to be very popular, at least on the forums.

[holeshot]

I'm thinking, Opus, D'Allara, Q-Ball, Euro Edege, One Eyed Jack, and one or two from the Chaparral line.

[ABX2011]

I'm thinking the higher-end Seki knives don't sell well but many haven't been in the line-up for long.
What's really amazing is Knifecenter still has discounted Spydies from last year's disco'd list.

That’s one I wouldn’t have thought to be in danger of the axe just because it seems to be relatively popular, but I could be quite wrong :rolleyes:

Some great knives. Only one of them would be interesting for me.

Why do you think the Caly would be a candidate?

[SG89]

The rumored FRN Caly 3.5

[bearfacedkiller]

Maybe the Pattada? Also, any Seki knife made with G10 could be on the chopping block. Their value is lacking in comparison to other offerings and i assume that is negatively impacting sales of those models.

[archangel]

We're getting closer and closer...

[curlyhairedboy]

Wonder if any more of the existing Taichung knives will be discontinued to make room for new releases...

[SG89]

I'm adding the Lil Temperance 3 to my potential discontinued prediction list

[Evil D]

I'm more out of the loop with new releases this year than I've ever been so I couldn't say.

But, if the Lil Temp 3 gets the axe and anyone sees them for a good price please PM me.
