PSA. Spyderco C94PDBL UKPK Blue 110 steel - £61

[Jethunter67]

Hi Folks,

Just spotted Spyderco UKPK C94PDBL blue FRN scale CPM S110V steel are available on Amazon for £61 with free shipping if you have prime. That’s less than half the price I can see them anywhere else.

iMHO that’s a cracking price. I’ve grabbed one.

Flagging in case anyone else needs one. I don’t expect they will be there for long at that price.

I’m nothing to do with Amazon. This is a public service announcement.

So I hope I’m not breaking any forum rules.

Thanks

Jethunter

Thanks for the heads up, great price. And I was looking for a non-drop point version.

It’s a sign from above, a true Christmas miracle.

It's worth noting that these come up occasionally on Amazon for that price, but you may need to wait many months for it to arrive. Sometimes quicker, but other times months, and I mean months!

pre Xmas delivery was stated on these when I ordered, look like it’s now end of dec for new orders.

Do you have a link? No ukpks showing on my Amazon searches.

 

[Jethunter67]

Search for C94PDBL and you should find it.

I copy/pasted the thread title and got there, but here’s a very chunky link.

Very tempting, but temptation is tempered by stuff I read on other forums. This is a quote lifted from Blade Forums, where it was sent from Spyderco to a member asking about buying from Amazon.

"Although Amazon does purchase directly from us they also purchase from other sources. Due to this practice, as well as their shared inventory with 3rd party marketplace retailers, we cannot guarantee that a "Spyderco" purchased from Amazon will always be legitimate. It's unfortunate, but we feel it's important to be honest. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you,

Rachel

I have a S110V UKPK and really like it. Definitely harder to sharpen but cuts cardboard for a long time and remains sharp

I think most companies say the same thing about what they consider grey imports that undermine the RRP.

I’ve had several Spyderco from Amazon before, All 100% pukka and genuine. I’m sure the ukpk will be the same.

Be careful with these. Amazon do a few good UKPK deals, but they can take weeks or months to arrive. Sometimes they get cancelled or allocated to third party sellers to fulfill over orders. And as they come from Amazon EU, and also further afield you may not get the exact item ordered. Seems like a loophole they sometimes sneak through that sometimes gets closed. It’s happened to me twice with this and a Manix.

My delivery date is showing as mid Dec for the order I placed last week. I’ll update this thread when the ukpk does (or doesn’t!!) arrive.

11th Jan 2025 is the delivery date currently advertised for new orders.

 

[Chris]

Mine is showing late December as well.

Remember, Distance Selling laws mean that you can return the item *for any reason* up to 14 days after it arrives. So on the small off chance it’s fake, you legally are entitled to your money back even if they disagree with you. And worst comes to the worst, you’d be entitled to raise a charge back if Amazon were unwilling to fulfil their legal obligations.

I've run a regular gamut of emotions with this thread:

"Ooo, bargain, Christmas pressie!"
"Al, you'd never even heard of this thing until this moment, you clearly don't need it or even want it".
"But... bargain...?"
"No."
"Oh, it's probably going to turn out to be too good to be true anyway, dodged a bullet there."
"See? Listen to yourself more often."
"But it might not be, and we can always return it because thats about the only thing Amazon is still good at, and bargain..."
*smacks self around head*
"No! Sit! Bad weevil."

So when does yours arrive?

The different blade shape is even cheaper and in stock. Get it before knife shops buy them all to resell for an easy profit.

Different blade steel as well. I have a ukpk in my bd1 and hole I’m no steel snob, I can tell that it’s not as good as other steel.

 

[grainweevil]

No, no, I've been strong. What d'you take me for? Some weak-willed weevil?!

Also I may be a little light on discretionary funds having ordered a newly launched Kaweco Sport Classic piston filler fountain pen...
