    Thanks, now I'm one of the cool kids lol. Actually, I ended up being number 14. Apparently a few people backed out and I got my spot back, plus one. It was definitely a nice gesture for Nathan to make sure it would be taken care of anyway. I gotta be honest, when that guy edited his post and changed it from one to two, bumping me out, I threw a minor fit in my living room lol.

    I've been desperately wanting a CPK field knife in 3V for a while now. Shame he doesn't produce them much now and is focusing on other designs.

    He doesn't produce them anymore as far as I know. Only option is the secondary market. And you might wanna sell a kidney.

    It's pretty bad when you might contemplate and consider selling a kidney just to get one.

    I'm waiting for someone to offer me a Shiro for one. That sucker would be shipped in minutes.

    I don't wanna do it to you. You'll have to do it to yourself lol. Google Shirogorov Knives.

    Oh OK, yeah I know those. Nice knives. Waaaay more than I'm willing to spend. But I'd bet there's someone out there that would trade for a field knife.

    Way more than I can spend too. But the custom FK package may be enough to push someone over the edge that has 10 of them and no CPK's.

    Believe me if I had something it would be long gone for one. Just have to keep an eye out on the for sale forums for a decent deal on one

    Ha! I was just about to mention that earlier. I guess people will pay whatever they want. But damn, not this guy.

    Man I cannot get one of these to save my life... The only reason im on BF is to score a CPK EDC. Its ridiculous what people will pay for these though. Hopefully I'll get in there soon. I was on for the last sale on BF but my phone basically got bogged down the moment I logged onto the CPK sale thread. Guess I could just order one and wait 7 months

    That's crazy... well as much as I would love to have one, There are a lot of knives out there. Maybe someday I'll come across one and pick it up. Mostly I would just like to use one for a bit... See what all this hype is about

    I can tell you from experience they're not all hype. If you can grab one definitely jump on it. You'll NEVER lose money on one. Should've gotten on the NASK pre-order.

    I'm hoping he offers one in the future that isn't so thick. I was back and forth on ordering one but I just know my tastes. I wouldn't have lost money, but it wouldn't have stayed. I'm on the hunt for a fk now.
