Welcome Athos.
Of course posting here was first. When releases come without more than a 72 hour window in most cases you kind of have to keep one ear to The Yard to make sure you get in on the release.They are always limited production runs and when you do snag one here it will save you about 30%-100% in savings verses buying it on the secondary market. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> Scrap Yard blades have a way of jumping in price after a release has been shipped. Those who miss out are sometimes willing to pay almost double for the chance to get their much coveted blade steel from Scrap Yard. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
Pull up a chair Athos you just missed three releases in a row that is the first time in three years that has happened. It could be a while before more steel hits The Yard.But in retrospect you will meet very nice people here who love to answer any steel question and a highly entertaining crowd of posters to say the least. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Enjoy! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
Peace.
Some people just never learn.

Welcome to the Yard which came first for me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Once I got here it has become expensive to stay however,but fun. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> There is a great mix of veterans and newbies here and the only way to tell them apart is by post count. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Welcome to the yard, Athos. I posted here first, trying to buy a Dog Father. Unfortunately, I just missed the last of them in the store, so I got one elsewhere. Seems like I waited forever for the DFLE, but it was worth the wait. It is my favorite chopper bowie by far.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I lurked for a few months until I got my first SY, the S6 and did not post. I wish I had posted sooner because they're were so many great people here and I learned how to acquire one thanks to them! but I didn't feel it was right until I had a blade, silly me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I tried to buy....could'nt work it out...came on the forum to do so. I came a few months ago....prior to the releases....but the ones I like have not been re-released so I got the ones I wanted on the exchange.
