That looks tasty but mindnumbingly pricey to ship to the US. The sheath looks tidy. The black oneI have come with the crappy olive drab version.

I apologize for the delay in getting back to me. From what our product team has informed me, these MXBS models are currently European only but will be launching globally around October of 2021."

Are these available yet? Can't find them anywhere.

According to the Vic website if you order them today they'll be sitting at your doorstep by Wednesday :mail:. I'd love to get my paws on one but $199 USD is a little steep for my budget at the moment  :facepalm:

I found this while I was out on the road, I wasn't sure what it was so I came to MT.O to find out more!

Seems like I might have stumbled upon a bit of a diamond?

Great find👍🏻 Interesting as Sea To Summit are the ones procuring the Spirit MXBS for the ADF. Is in a MOLLE pouch?

I don't know if it's "MOLLE", but its got a velcro strap thingy.

I had a look on Austender (all australian government contracts are publicly listed for transparency)

the multitool contract with sea to summit looks be worth $2.8m - if the tools costs $200 ea, then I guess they bought 14,000 of them?

its hidden among dozens of other contracts with seatosummit, I didn't add them all up, but I'd say $15m worth of stuff.
