    Dibs! I've been eyeballing this and like it more every time I see it.

    The inconvenience of poor quality lingers long after the thrill of a good bargain.

      $630 MSRP is a chunk of change. But I am sure the QC spec is MAX for the Taiwanese on this one.

      How much below MSRP do you get if you are in the OpFocus?

        That pretty much sums up my approach to the situation. Scott makes an AWESOME knife, but his Comms skills suck. I went easily over a year a couple times with no response to my inquiries and outreaching from him. I was tempted to flip the knife as soon as I got it for a nice profit, but the knife is so awesome, I haven't been able to so far.

            One of my knife shop accounts, Williams Cutlery in San Jose, got one in today and I was the first guy in to see it, played with it for a minute and snagged it...Right place/right time...

              I got the SRK. Nice CS for $26 for sure. Not sure how the logo will etch because it looks painted too, but we'll give it a shot.

                I've picket up two Colt Legends Continues CT-series stag handle traditionals, a canoe and a butterbean, in the last month, they're a well made, attractive knife for the money.

                      Yeah I think ECOP is still having a pretty good knife sale.

                      Whatever that logo colorfill is it seems metallic because it electro etched OK... the small logo on the flip side where I didn't do it disappeared.

                      Turned out good, just got a little carried away using a Worksharp doing an orange peel type polish before I sanded it and got rid of it... BUBBA took over, but who cares, it is sharp, it cuts and it cost $26 hahah.

                      Etch works... you can tell by the black

                      After Citristrip for a couple hours only - cheap paint, scraped with a butter knife


                      Worksharp BUBBA

                          Thanks. Not a bad knife for less than the cost of a 12-round HK USP .45 mag.

                              I want to get one and suggest one to a friend that putting his bug out bag kit together, he’s on a tight budget.
                              You can check ebay but they sold out on Amazon... just search for SRK. Looks like ECOP sold their stock... they were $26.11 shipped on Amazon and a little less on EBAY from them... maybe they will offer more. It happens.
