With my CC still smoking from Lardo I'm wondering how long I can wait until I order the S5LE. I know it won't be charged until the knives are shipped but I still have to watch the timing of the charge.

Will there be a warning before it is removed from the products page?

typically yes, but I was under the impression this was going to be a "while supplies last" type of sale? maybe Renee will come along to verify

Got to agree with SB here, I was figuring the S5LE was going to be a very limited run. Hope that guys get a heads up when it is getting ready to close but the MUK didn't IIRC.

Beats me, when they said it would be up between 9:30 to 10:30PM, I took it to mean that it would only be available for an hour.

yep who knows anymore, I read between 9:30 and 10:30 like you, now a sale of infi for an hour, if ya get in and get one you got a hell of a deal for the price, but when its up days later??, not so valuable anymore as I look at it, anyhow I like the S5 size better than the other infi I have, so I bought in as to keep this design and sell my others.

I took it as the release between 930 and 10 30 especially when Dan says maybe not all of you will get one, as did a lot of other members from BF BC room that came quick, I'm just saying selling the idea of a limited edition is one thing, it being not so limited is another, me and my friend took up a quarter of the first hundred number, or hope so, it was within seconds of the release, but i guess limited could really be whenever that supply stops when ya think about it.

I am with Bruce here - I interpreted the "between 9:30 and 10:30 to be the time they would be listed in the store, not the time period they would be available for sale. It didn't seem very confusing to me, but I guess it threw off a couple of the Hogs.

Limited edition simply means there's a limited number of them - that number could be 300 or 500 or 1000, but the point is, once they are gone, that's it, and they won't be made again.



With the hints Dan was dropping, I was fully expecting the S5LE to sell out last night, but then again, there have been other SY LE releases that didn't sell out fast - although those weren't made from INFI.


It doesn't really bother me - I'd rather get more of these in folks' hands, and destroy the second-hand value. I'm not a speculator looking to make a profit, and I'm quite happy to let as many Dogs as possible get a chance at these.



Remember, Scrap Yard isn't aimed at collectors, with prototypes and one-offs and fancy handles - these knives are geared for maximum price to performance ratio. I'm a huge fan of getting them out there to be used, not locked up in safes waiting for the value to go up. No offense, Bruce <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
