We want to address a particular rumor floating around, in regards to the Griptillian and Mini Griptillian families. In the near future, all standard Grips and Mini Grips will be converted from 154CM to CPM-S30V.

**This change DOES NOT affect the -1 Series. They will remain CPM-20CV.**

Once our stock of 154CM blades has been depleted in Product Services, you would get an S30V blade.

Hollow ground skus were converted first, and have been in stores for a week or two. The remaining skus will be shipped soon.

Are the griptilian-1 g10 versions changing colors? Will they continue to have grey and blue?

Is the G10/M4 Freek going to be readily available or is it an exclusive run? If it's being added to the regular lineup, I'm in for one!

Being a -1, it should be a regular production model. I’d expect a -1901 if it were a LE.

You are correct! Standard production model.

Looks like a number of the larger knife retailers now have added the new 2019 S30V Griptilians to their inventories and they're now available for sale.
I got an email ad from BHQ today. "Out with the 154CM, in with the S30V! "
