Will this knife ever be back? If so, when?
Thanx

Probably not. I don't think it sold very well, so unless there's a giant uproar for a sprint, it's probably gone for good.

If you really like it and are willing to pay the price, they do come up for sale now and then, you'll just have to put the word out on forums that allow sales and have some cash in hand. I got lucky and scored one in a trade. It's one of my favorite knives, I would LOVE to see a sprint someday.

Awesome mod Evil D! I too am a huge wharnie fan and that makes the rock lobster even cooler.
Now I'm kicking myself for not picking one up...

No joke. If I found one I'd ask Evil if he would mod mine too.

Yes, I believe he calls that the "Evil Lobster Mod." :D

I have had three Rock Lobsters at three different times. Sold off all of them a while after I got it. The last one I even did the Evil Lobster Mod and still couldn't get myself to like it. It's a pity because I really love how it looks but I just don't find it comfortable.

I've been really wanting one as well, but I can't even find any to get a price on. How much are they going for nowadays? I wish that spyderchef concept knife would be made... They're very similar.

I snagged mine off of Ebay last year for $180. That took a diligent watch. If you see one for around the $200 mark, I would get it. They are getting rare and its a really cool knife.
Don't mess with the Spyder because you think you're fly.

Lol love mine but for $300 I'd probably sell it too. Hard to say though, it really has no comparative equal in the whole lineup.

I've been carrying my for two weeks now. It's one of those that I just love how it looks. It pairs nicely with the g10 dragonfly. Then again just about everything pairs nicely with the g10 dragonfly.
