What is the country of origin? Why does Massdrop not put that in the specs by default?

What i find odd is that they have many limited edition colors listed on their site, but none are the 3 listed here (how in the world is plain grey titanium a limited edition color?? Looks like a special run with less work put in to anodize, to lower the cost..... Clever, i guess)

KavikBecause they only made 50 in the gray color (only 20 in blue), hahaha. Anyway, I'm pretty late in this discussion, but I just started using it as my backup edc again (I've had it for a more than a year). Luckily, BladeHQ had it on sale for $110 for awhile and I decided to buy one because I prefer smaller knives and I like the way it looks (sometimes I'm a bit superficial, hahaha). It's been a far better knife than I expected. Originally I was worried about the chisel grind, but it actually works quite well. In general, 98% of the time I use my knives only for opening boxes and this blade shape (mini tanto or whatever it's called) and chisel grind are excellent at that. In my opinion, it is my favorite box opener of the 60+knives in my collection. Is the MSRP higher than it should be? Absolutely, but if you can get it for $110 (like I did on BladeHQ), I think it's a pretty good deal. I think everyone will be surprised by it if they actually have it and use it. That being said, the MSRP on this version is pretty darn high, but the MSRP on the "Vintage" model is flat-out insane, especially considering they made significantly more of each of the Vintage models than of these ones. The only differences are the anodization colors. So, the prices seem to defy logic. I would think the blue color of this model (not the blue Vintage) would be the most expensive because they only made 20. My brain hurts just trying to understand the pricing. Anyway, if any of you stumble across an unused one for $100 or less, I recommend that you buy it. I seriously think you will be quite surprised by this little knife.... in a good way.
