2 @  0.002BTC

Happy to see that these are back in production. If we're being honest, I sort of like the designs without the stars better; I'm a bit of a minimalist when it comes to design. I'd be happy to snag one of these at a low price though, good collector's item for me to hang onto.

Are these of better quality than the last ones? These look amazing.  Maybe I'm just parital to the design

Any differences between this first batch of 10, and the next batches of 40?
Design #2 will consist of 40 or 50 knives in total?
Is shipping included in the bid price, for this auction?

COAs will be identical to those in design#1, or slightly different? (apologies for the sequential post, but I didn't want to edit my previous bid post) Will be simmilar to the old COAs.  ;)

Noted. I'll remove the stars in the next design :)

They're the same quality :)

They'll be the same.
Total 50 knives.

Shipping isn't included, but it's 7$ untracked worldwide and 11$ tracked worldwide shipping.
Cheaper if you're buying more.

Won't be identical.

Just curious:
What kind of steel does this knife use?
Which lock mechanism does this use?
Is there a pocket clip on the back?
Do you plan on making any high-quality knives in the future? (i.e. instead of $15 we're talking $200+)

Stainless steel, aluminium handle.
I don't know how to explain the lock mechanism, guess I'll have to record it  :D
Yes, there is a pocket clip on the back.

These are high quality too.
Don't have anything else planned right now.

30 minutes left to bid.

I don't know how to explain the lock mechanism
http://everydaycarry.com/posts/8619/5-common-types-of-locking-knives-explained

if it's on there, which I assume it is.

These are high quality too.
By the price, it's definitely some lower-quality steel. Maybe typical to that of a low-budget knife. If you plan on getting a type of steel that you can actually name then I'd be interested.

It's a liner lock :)
Might consider making some in the future.

I should have but didn't . He was a long time member with a good rep.

Last message ( July 14 ) was that he was busy and had exams and would send on Sat.

Maybe exams didn't go so well? Lol

I don't see any red-flags (outside of the absence) that would point to any foul play. If I had to guess, I would assume that real-life has simply gotten in the way, and we can expect to hear from them any day now. Let's give them the time they have earned over the years, and the benefit of the doubt. Unexpected things can take priority without notice.

I'm assuming you mean the last message was June 14, not July?

Yes. My mistake... it was  June 14....
I'm sure it's all good. It's just that he had exams and is possession of all these knives......   :o

Lol...he will come around..give him some more time. But he should have posted something if he was gonna be off for awhile. Ive seen it happen.

Your Kialara has been shipped on that Saturday as I said it will.
I'll send you the tracking information soon.


------------------


I'm sorry for the delay.
The thing is I've broken up with my girlfriend (2 years) and it's been tough, a lot of bad things happened after the break-up, I was just too fucked up to go online and too busy dealing with her spreading lies around.
The knives will be shipped tommorow.

Sorry for the delay again.

I received my knife the other day! Production value seems pretty good, I'm very pleased with what I've received. Got my knife, wrapped in plastic, within a box with a COA. Knife #4 is sitting pretty alongside some silver coins. My only suggestion would be the logo that is hidden under the clip should be rethought. It doesn't take away anything from the design, but it doesn't add anything either; so it would seem like the effort could be replaced for an even better output. Overall, thanks for finally getting these out and I hope things are getting better for you. There were some people concerned about the delay, but I simply told them to give you the time you've earned, because there was no doubt you'd deliver. I appreciate you not making me look foolish!
