    Sorry, we're all sold out. And we're not ordering any more.

    Thanks for playing, guys.

    Try again when the next model comes out--the CR 3.75

    Didn't figure I'd get a straight answer ..... or even one that made sense at all. No worries. I'll wait until I see them in stores.

    its the CR 3.75 normally, but in the cold weather the shrinkage makes it more like 3.5

    The medellin will be released with Half Life 3 as a pack-in

    Anyone have an idea of when they should be shipping? If the dealers already have them in stock, I would imagine it would be soon.

    Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? @Expat ?

    It's probably cheesy, but I really like that it's marked "first production run". I think it's a fake though since I didn't even get a friggin sticker.

    First impressions: it's sharp as hell, and lighter than I expected. The handle feels really natural to my sausage fingers, however the liner lock is difficult to release for this same reason. I'm impressed with the knife overall, and I'm excited to see other people's reactions to it.

    @troutfisher13111
    I don't have a ruler at home, and everything at my work is metric system, so this is the best I can do for you. Tip is exactly at 2" mark to give the best reading.

    Not sure I can word this correctly, but how is the angle needed to open the knife with the thumb stud?

    @Rich275 I understand what you mean, and I'll do my best to explain it. I just tried it, and with my thumb on the stud, it opens easily whether you're putting pressure perpendicular or parallel to the blade. The stud is far from the center screw so just about any way you try, it will open smoothly.
