yeah TAD has some really nice stuff - of course everything they sell comes at a premium price but from owning their outerwear and now knives for me the value is there
Sick knife Z! I love TAD collab knives, but their buying policy or product drop policy sucks! I think they should go to a list procedure. You put your name on the list and as soon as you buy a knife, you go to the bottom of the list. Would be nice to see some of their stuff go to people that actually want to own it (instead of resold on ebay the same day). Sweet score though. I wanted the Crusader Forge TAD knife so bad, I almost paid secondary price for it, but then said forget it!
I am with you 100% seems like guys just snipe them up to turn a buck, hell even a lottery for the drops would be cool with some sort of limit. I wanted that Crusader TAD also no dice there as well.
I know there is some speculations about who actually produces them, feels kind of like protech to me...my understanding is they are going to be ramping up production on these in 2013 as you would expect if one of the bigger manufacturers is on board.
Eh yeah I suppose I could, I don't think these production models are going to bring the kind of #'s the serialized runs are bringing though, plus I plan on adding a 25 to my collection regardless lol
Yep, even lottery would be fine, anything but the bullshit system they have now. Either way, glad you were one of the lucky ones my friend. I got the email notification when I was on some backroads of Texas. No chance of trying to buy one using my phone there.
Wow, you scored one!? Congrats! Very cool knife. My darn opening-hole obsession keeps so many knives out of my "wanted" list.

thanks man, I started working my way through your incredible video catalog today as well.
The all black models (black blade) were only made for the USN gathering last year. Only 17 made. Wish I had one..lol
Oh man, that's awesome. You and the knife were obviously meant to be.
thanks man, and thanks for watching
I got a black one on Ebay that has a serial number right now-Dec. 27th. Thanks.

Great score, man. I found your channel on accident, and instantly subscribed. I look forward to checking out your other videos.
Yeah the email notification is like already too little too late in my experience in the past
I got a black one on the way. I hope I like it as much as you do. Im a sebenza guy so we shall see. Nice vid btw.
yep totally lucked out right before I got on a flight, like literally minutes before they told me to shut down my phone.

never heard of these. guess I need to expand my horizons. .
I think that would look a lot better with a dark acid stone wash on the blade and a dark bronze ano stone wash on the ti side.
I think I completely agree with you!
Great blade....Congrat's!!
Nice blade i like the colour
thanks man!
thanks man

Nice blade!
Me? Yeah I would I have that one on the list, but you can get it for cheaper than that...I will PM you.
TAD MK2...PM2 AND AN EMERSON DUUUUUUUUDE
Would you pay $165.00 for a Benchmade Subrosa. Im not sure to get it or not.Its a Ti framelock with S30V steel
Nice knife, but if it was mine I would sell it for a profit and use the money for a new Sebenza 25, but thats just me.
Some guys just love some hole...:) opening hole that is
thanks man
