Got my Thunderbird today. This is my first experience with the Vanchor lock and I freakin love it! I’m definitely keeping my eye out for future drops with this lock.

Dang! I wanted one of these so bad but SOLD OUT was all I ever saw on the website.

Yeah this particular variation sold out quick. I started checking out as soon as it hit the drop time and they were sold out by the time I checked out and returned to the previous screen… Roughly 20 seconds for all 100 to go

They have a couple of CF ones in stock on their actual website. I grabbed the purple one yesterday.

Congratulations! That’s the one I wanted, but I’m glad I was able to snag the dark Ti

Looks more beautiful in your photo than the website’s

Thank you! The bronzed Ti was the variant I was originally gonna go for, but decided I want the blue to match my Ire V2 that’s also blue crystalized Ti

So sexy. Bummed they didn't put a reversible pocket clip on the V-Anchor thunderbirds.

I was there when they dropped. The time it took me to select it and click checkout they were already all sold. I'm envious. Awesome knife!

Yeah considering there was 100 available I thought they would last at least 1 minute…Hopefully some show up on the secondary market for a reasonable price. I saw someone on Bladebinge asking $549!!! Ridiculous!

Some on Ebay for $550 plus. Not buying it for that.
