It is discouraging to have to play the speed game, especially when you've got a normal life and can't live by a phone or computer.
I bet! I'm an IT professional so I am pretty much always by a computer, and it still took me three tries to grab one, even despite having a stock-checking script. What REALLY kills you is the time it takes to fill out information at checkout. It really doesn't help that most vendors won't let you save your credit card on file with them unless you've already ordered something. If it wasn't for Sooner State taking PayPal, I probably wouldn't have got mine.

Before I grabbed mine, I was going to ask for help from some trusted friends to help me grab one, but that also requires knowing someone trustworthy and that also doesn't have the same schedule as you.

Between setting up the stock checker script and auto fill details on 20 different vendors, this is by far the most work I have ever put into buying anything, let alone a knife. But everything kind of aligned with this release in terms of the model, steel and price. I can't really see myself investing this much effort on any other sprint release.


But yeah not to brag, but got my tracking number from SSK. :D. Birthday is on Friday too, so that would be cool if it showed up then. *crosses fingers*

That Sooner drop was amazing timing for those that got in. Happened right while everyone was fighting the Knife Joker Lil' Native drop. Almost perfect alignment of the stars with the general knife community's focus elsewhere and it being a lesser-known retailer.

And happy early birthday! That 15V is a dope gift to yourself.

Thanks! This will be my first Spyderco too. Well, not technically... I do have a Ladybug in ZDP-189 that I got before I realized how tiny it was lol Not that it's a bad knife, just not really a size I use much.

I just got my Spyderco App notification that these are shipping to dealers! :')
I think that is my 2nd Sprint Run notification from the app. The other was the factory direct Native Chiefs.

That's good news. I don't know why, but the notifications for their app never work on my phone (iOS).

Got it also, I am wondering if that means for people who have already placed an order, or is this more of them that will be available from dealers?

Just got my order in for one at BHQ. I hate paying out of state sales tax, but they’re throwing in a free beanie, so I feel less bad about it. 😁

They dropped yesterday so if that’s when he ordered, one day shipping isn’t bad.

I don’t know how far behind BladeHQ is, but I got an order in on 12/9 and it’s still processing.
