UPDATE: We are just finishing parts for first batch. Hope to be shipping and have up for sale in about 2 - 3 weeks. We are about 4 weeks behind our planned schedule. Price should be $445 in G10 and $490 in carbon fiber.

Had a chance to handle some of the pre-production knives in Vegas. Guys, let me tell you, these are fantastic knives. They look cool, feel great, and the mechanics are right on.
Mark and Curtis, you should be very proud of these knives. Excellent work and congratulations, gentlemen.

Awesome looking blade. $445 is a little salty for this E-6. Got a lot of things on the want/need list for my next trip, but this isn't going to survive the wife's Sr Rater review. Keep up the awesome work though.

Remember to ask for your Military and/or SF discount to save some cash.

Just got an update from Mark this morning, parts are out for coating! Looking at 2 weeks (probably 3-4 with inevitable delays  MOO). As stated before, I finger F*#ed this knife at BLADE and I personally think it is one of the finest folders that I've ever handled. The fact that Mark and Curt are class acts is only a bonus

May take you up on that recommendation once these hit the shelves. I'm finishing graduate school and this looks like a nice way to commemorate.

Matching Folder
A Horkos folder would be a perfect match to my brand new Horkos.
Can I just have my direct deposit sent to you guys and receive knives on the first and 15th of every month?

A few initial impressions.
The spartan guys left enough gap between the thumb stud and frame/scale to let it be opened fairly easily. The right side opening is a little easier with the additional relief, but the left hand opening is quite adequate. Fit and finish are great as expected. Action is smoother than any other folder I've used. Lock up is solid with no perceivable movement.

Thanks guys! We are getting good feedback and the folders are really moving out the door as fast as we assemble.
