This is from the recent lot sold by CKTG.

The knife is just not my style.

Im curious if these are going to get hard to get again or if retailers will restock regularly. I rememer mark saying thats kind of it from him. All the other places that had them for a bit are all sold out, except one retailer and the price got quite inflated- hate it when they do that. Im glad i ended up getting one im digging it!

Actually shocked this is still here given the firestorm that preceeded it. Most reviews have been very positive, I know I really like mine.

Yeah i can understand why that dont resonate with some, and others be like wow i love this knive. For me the knive lives up to the hype so far. Although they are a touch pricey because of the hype.

According to Mark..this is it for a while...possibly longer. The knife was priced at $350 which to my knowledge is what every one else was charging, so I don't think they have been inflated. I was hoping to get back all my investment and have the buyer pay for shipping, thus my price. It is pretty much new and completely unobtainable right now so figured I was not really price gouging. I am rather amazed it is not sold.

Ray, sorry if my comment read that way. I was talking about a vendor i saw them just recently at for basically $450. I wasnt referring to you at all, thats why i used the term vendor. But i could understand it being interpreted that way. I totally understand wanting to get your miney back since you have to ship it, especially from Hawaii!
Yeah im surprised its still there too since it seems the well has dried up, that's what i was saying. I am curious if they are going to restock through other vendors in the future or if this will be a long dry spell like before.

[mauichef]

Ramon...no worries my friend. I did not take your comment that way at all
I understood you were talking about vendors which is why I answered that way, not having seen any that were upping the price.
It is sad that they do that but it's business I guess.
I actually thought some buyers might be upset with my price and thus the no sale.
From what I can gather there will probably be another dry spell for a while.

Are you sure its fingernail polish or finger nail polish remover , pretty in pink!

[4k-nives]

Yes use acetone or fingernail polish REMOVER. haha

[Barashka]

Some rubbing alcohol did the trick for me, though I had to rub quite a bit. Maybe wear gloves, my fingers were tingling after a while.

[chefDpham]

acetone is the way to go

[mauichef]

OK guys, I will send a free bottle of polish remover with the knife. Now will someone please buy it
