Thanks for the offer Keijo it would be sweet from you to buy me one but I could not accept it.  I do not have a problem to believe that it is a original spyderco I'm just sharing my opinion so that nobody does to have be a victim of possible fraud. Clint did speak with a spyderco representative and they conformed it so it is closed deal. BTW mysecond spyderco matriarch sprint run with brown FRN and plane edge if on his way I hope to receive it the next weak so I can share some nice pictures with both matriarch that I will own.

Patrik....

A salesman at The Knife Center said he had a few of the Spyderco Matriarch 2 from the Premier shipment and some from a friend who is a member of the Spyderco Family.  In talking to him for a while, the cop kicked in and I was smelling Tuna.

Clint one more observation. I dont know what is doing the marketing or shipping department at spyderco but blade HQ is not the only one who has them on sale right now and I can tell that is no just one presentation piece they had more of them and they are sold out.

Yes I know that tactic sparkling the interest of the customers and then put them on back-order. But a read in the comments that on blade HQ they were sold out in 5 hours after listing  them on the site.  Who knows what is going really  on. We will see in a few day. Thank you for your help.

Patrik....

Good question.  However, Marketing knows what is on the market and what is not.  BladeHQ shows the Matriarch 2 but shows out of stock.  My be is knife center shows the knife but will tell you it will be in any day.  I tried to call them but they were closed.

Thank you Clint This this is what I wanted to read. I appreciate your proactive action and calling them. I'm proud of my spyderco collection and i feel personally responsible to maintain a pristine quality track record for all spyderco knives it would be a blow if some fake, counterfeit spyderco clones would damage the name and reputation of the company usually people don't know (or don't care) that they buy fake knives. Nowadays all that maters is the right price but quality costs some extra. The man and woman at spyderco they don't cut corners they are on spot and they working hard to deliver the final product with the most best quality possible.  As I trust   this company and are willing to pay not a small amount of money to them I want to be sure that I get the level of quality for that I have pay for. We live in troubled times the China made copy's are flooding the world. It is up to us to do something.  There for I invest my free time to be  informed I scan trough eBay and other online mega web stores and auctions to spot and report if I found something that is suspicious. So i try to do my part to preserve what is god and trustworthy. We have the knowledge we have the power   to not use it is the same as like to support all those who want to rip us off.  I cant allow that i hope we all agree on that.

Patrik.....

I called Spyderco Marketing and talked to Nikol who is Joyce's assistant.  She told me the Matriarch knife of which you speak is brand new and not out on the market therefore not in their catalog.  She was surprised BladeHQ had one as they have not been released.  My guess Michael sent them one.  I watched the video and I can tell you the knife in the video is a genuine Spyderco.  I have experience in the bogus knives with my traveling from one hell hole to the next. 

Patrik I appreciate your spotting this.  It is always good to keep an eye out for the fakes and let your brother and sister knife collectors to be on the caution.  I for one appreciate your vigilance.

Indeed it sounds ironic and sad that ones invention is not listed on the inventors main source of information. Time will tell sooner or later.
