does it come with it or not? that is the question that would tip me over to order.

It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had

Actually, just noticed this at the end of Jason's article:

"The watch will come packaged with a specially made Aqua-Lung fixed blade dive knife with leg sheath and orange paracord-wrapped tang."

Hmm
Wonder if it's included?

The original pre order page says sold out, the updated shop page has it for sale.

Hopefully this means more special versions of the 300 re-release are coming soon... I'd love to see a logo'd Rambler.

It looks like they are using Kobold's Sherpas.

Even a blind Sherpa on his death bed would do a better job than that. It looks like ericf4 sharpened it with two screwdrivers.

Looks like a dent to me. Did they try to brush out a scratch, too?
