Blade was only 2 months ago. Since then we have seen a lot of new steel out of Wauseon. I think folks are just out of money.

Exactly... when I got involved in these three companies, I kept telling myself I wouldn't be one of those guys who's always trying to flip knives right after buying them, but at the rate things have been coming out, I've been forced to sell stuff that I just got, in order to pay for the latest shiny object that catches my attention. I could see more and more knives going on the chopping block unless they slow down the rate of new releases.

And the second hand market has been decimated by the fast release schedule too. To me, that's actually a GOOD thing - I was always bothered by the crazy, crazy markup on knives, so I'm glad to see profit margins have dropped a bit, and it's easier to get your hands on these knives to actually USE them.
