*Spydie Summer Sale 2023*

[kennethsime]

I hope that by the time the next MAP holiday comes around, I’ll have some more $$ to play knives with.

In the meantime, thanks for sharing folks. Love living vicariously through youse.

I’ve been wanting an Autonomy black coated fully serrated for a while. Got one from Knivesshipfree for $232.

I was sorely tempted by this deal, but ultimately went with the killer prices on the teal Delica wharncliffe and SE Leafjumper.

[Dnwrghtsr]

Had a swayback for 211 in a cart and a drunken for 388. There were some awesome deals, just really wanted an Autonomy the most.

[jwbnyc]

Was doing really well resisting until there was this Millie Left Hand for under Two Bills shipped. Caved on that one seeing as how we don’t know if they are going to be around and back ups are a thing.

[Kiteman72]

The Swayback for 211 is such a deal I am almost considering a backup. The Swayback is a sweetheart.

You'll never regret having a Spydie switchblade, or a lefty model Millie. Both excellent and wise choices!

[Dnwrghtsr]

The swayback deal is at Midway USA. Sign up for texts and get an additional 10%.

Native 5 Magnacut serrated:

$2 more at REC, but no sales tax, so a better deal.

teal Delica wharncliffe and SE Leafjumper.

Good choices! I am so close to getting that Delica. Already have the jumper. Wharnies rock.

I picked up the new Military 2 with a discount on National Knives. I also purchased something I've been curious about for years, but the price was finally right. The Mcbee is only $125 at Knives Plus, which is $50 off the normal price. I think it originally cost about $129 when it first dropped in 2019ish. So after doing the inflation adjustment, $125 in today's money was roughly $106 in 2019. So in that sense I saved about $23 on the Mcbee. I think I'll be using it a lot, as soon I'll be moving out of the restaurant industry into the more tame retail world. The Mcbee will be a more reasonable EDC for this I think.

Sun & Moon Chaparral incoming.

I think the McBee price is a mistake. If you add it to cart it's $175

Swayback down to $150 at BHQ for last few hours of sale tonight.

Probably gonna have to break all my fingers to keep from ordering one of these. Thanks a lot.

[Kiteman72]

Or maybe it will go OOS almost instantly!

[nerdlock]

Swayback OOS! That price was TEMPTING.

Made me really think about getting another copy as backup to mine. Glad it went OOS quick.

In the meantime BHQ has Damasteel SpyOpera at 284.20, dunno how much with taxes. I wonder if we can get it below 250 someday, like the Phoenix Sprint.

[buckleys]

Ah I couldn't resist getting a serrated magnacut native 5. That makes 5 spydies bought during this sale, whoops

SpyOpera Sprint at $284.20 is 51% off MSRP!

Phoenix Sprint at $250.00 was 45% off MSRP!

Thanks for the comparison of % off MSRP, though that was not my point. I was merely musing if we can get the price below 250, which the Phoenix did (used to be $220 at National Knives, and now $210 at St Nicks, well below 250). Same with the Swayback (if we're talking about MSRP percentages) which was sold by BHQ a few hours ago for $150, at about 67% off MSRP, so it's not impossible to hope that someday the DamaSteel SpyOpera might be sold at below 250, may even below 200 if we're wishful thinking.

The Phoenix Sprint (March 2021) just never sold that many because it was VG-10 & Titanium Liners with an overpriced MAP of $315!

SpyOpera Sprint (March 2023) has a MAP of $406.00 but you get DamaSteel and Solid CF. I paid $284.20 shipped which is 51% off MSRP.

Swayback is a regular production folder.
