Where are you seeing M390, if the picture showing "CTS" is of this knife it won't be M390

Well...that's both good news for US afis and another blow and terrible news to us international fans...Knifejoy is one of those sites that are so discriminatory against international customers. They won't even allow foreign credit cards to be used in their site. I understand not shipping internationally, but not even allowing foreign customers to use our credit cards is just another level of discrimination.

This is just sad, because just recently, it was an international fan (chapp) who opened a discussion on the Bowie demand... viewtopic.php?f=2&t=88570&hilit=slyz+bowie+problem

This knife has NOT been released yet, even to CC members. The KnifeJoy IG post shows a blue ano one with M390 steel. My pic shows CTS-XHP because I took a photo of my original one to show that the KnifeJoy pic is very likely a Slysz Bowie! :D

A lot of credit card processors require you to sign up for a higher level of service (with a higher set of fees) to process foreign cards. It's because of the fraud risk, but it's still reasonable for a small business to not take them, because of the additional cost.

Way too much confusion over nothing... This is the original KnifeJoy pic, it’s clipped on page 1...

Edited my original post to include the full KJ teaser pic...

If it's Slysz Bowie with M390 I'd expect it to be around $350-$400!

Slysz Bowie is the nicest Spyderco I've ever had from the countoured titanium handle, crowned blade and smooth operation. Back in 2014 these were $300 when MAP was 40% off MSRP.

I'd buy a LH version, but it'll never happen.

I will definitely try.

In a way I am glad I passed on the new Kapara release. I was very tempted. But now there is more funds for something like this.

I am very satisfied that I purchased the original before it was discontinued. Anyone who has been wanting one should be glued to their screen for the drop, because the knife is worth it.

I don't understand why everybody is assuming this is the Slysz Bowie... I don't think you can tell that from the picture. I think the Slysz Bowie is peoples' wishful thinking without much evidence to that fact. Sorry to rain on people's parade.

It’s been leaked on Instagram that it is a slysz design. I doubt it’s a techno or swayback and there is already a blue spydiechef. They have also referred to it as the GOAT (greatest of all time) leading me to believe they are referring to the Bowie

This pic from Dan was also included in the KnifeJoy IG post along with the hashtag “notthelastslyszexclusive”. Clearly pictured is their blue ano exclusive SpydieChef they already released. Please tell me which of the knives pictured matches the M390 teaser pic again?! I’m sure they’ll post another teaser pic soon with more hints.

Got it... thanks for clarifying. I didn't see the Instagram post and was only commenting on the picture. All that would seem to point to the Slysz Bowie!
