I hope these are for sale soon.
I'd like to buy one.
I saw they have a preorder, but I guess I'll wait.

any one else like this translucent G-10?
might be an EDC for me. :cheers:

I like the blade and handle, but it looks a little fancy for me.  The triangular cutout for the thumb stud just seems a little over the top, as does the translucent G-10.  If they cam out with a "normal" version I'd probably be interested.  Until then I'm out.

1/2" shorter blade and I'd be all over it.  If there's one Kershaw I'm waiting for this year, it's the Cryo.

Are these all sold out or just not out yet? I think these are pretty cool.

I'm in love with the Cryo, but unless someone finds a way to teleport it into Australia, I'm never going to get my hands on one  :(

Love it!  It's so nice to see some variety in scale colours.  I really like the translucent g-10.
So tired of black.  Thank you Kershaw!

Can't you get someone to take out the spring bar and crank down the pivot before sending?

Nope. It's a flipper, so even unassisted it'll never make it in.

Even if the pivot is tight enough to not flip? That really sucks.
