OG Orders - Status Updates

As we continue to improve our communication efforts, we hope this is a great way to keep all of our customers informed on the CURRENT status of their pending order, as we are always working very hard to get you those GOATs as quickly as we can, but we are still a rather small operation with big dreams...so we greatly appreciate everyone's patience as we create that perfect OG designed exclusively for your pocket!!

 ***THINGS TO REMEMBER WITH YOUR OG ORDER***

Your order confirmation email (please check your spam folder if you don't have that email) should include either an estimated shipping date (for our pre-order items) or a production estimate time (for our standard production items) for a "standard" item...unless you found a rare GOAT that's on-hand...these will not have this estimation and instead those should ship within 1-4+ weeks ***depending on final finish selected - as coatings WILL ADD processing time to that GOAT...see below for details!!

You will see this estimated information listed under the label "Pre-order info:"  

This is the estimate at the time of your order (if you make changes or add custom options, it can extend this estimation).  

Our "standard" option will usually be either a fully ambidextrous option (no clip location on product - AD20,AD20.5, AD10...), or is a right-handed configuration (AD15, Deka, Manix, MSI...).  AND we have moved to a "NO HOLE" approach with our GOATs as we know so many prefer to keep those beautiful textures uninterupted, so if that product has a lanyard option, then the standard option WILL NOT have a lanyard hole included!

For our aluminum options, our STONED finish will be the quickest option, with our In the Buff finish being just a few additional processing days for that set to be processed in finishing; however, coated GOATs will add significant time to your order, please see below. 

Beyond that...you are creating a semi-custom to a full custom GOAT...or what we like to call an ORIGINAL GOAT...and will require a little bit more time to be created...so here are some examples...these things happen in production, which may give you a "discount" in that total time and if you have chosen multiple upgrades, you should default to the upgrade with the longest processing time...we will provide some additional examples below:

  • Left, Both and No Pocket Clip Configurations = 4-8+ weeks
  • Finger Jimping Addition = 1-2+ weeks
  • Stock Clip vs Non-Stock Clip = 2-3+ weeks
  • Lanyard Hole Modifications (Adding) = 2-3+ weeks

ALL Coating/Anodization Services -

  • Coatings - Single Colors: 
    • Standard colors - 2-3+ weeks
    • OG Colors - 3-4+ weeks (especially our signature OG Orange)
    • Premium Colors - 3-4+ weeks
    • Custom Colors - 4-8+ weeks
  • Premium services
    • Coatings - (Splatter/Fade GOATs) - 3-4+ weeks
    • Anodization - 4-8+ weeks

***Orders with full custom colors, please add an add an ADDITIONAL 2-3 weeks as those coatings have to be shipped in from supplier before coating services can begin and that will lead to additional time.

  • MSI - No Pocket, No Finger Jimping, and No Lanyard Hole = + 4-8 weeks

    KNOWN DELAYS/ISSUES

    September 1, 2024

    STANDARD PRODUCTION 

    (YOUR ORDER HAS AN ESTIMATED PROCESSING TIME)
    Delayed 2-3 weeks depending on model and option
    If you have a semi-custom/custom item on order it could be up to an additional 4 to 8 weeks, but we are working hard to get every order processed as quickly as possible!

     

    PRE-ORDERS

    (YOUR ORDER HAS AN ESTIMATED SHIPPING DATE)

    We only have two items still impacted by delays (MSI & AD20)

    MICROTECH MSI 

    Great news, as those MSI items are finally beginning to arrive ON-TIME!!  

    Orders with August 22nd shipment date have already begun shipping, and most of our Stoned options made it out on time, with just a few textures that could not quite make it through due to that last hurricane delay, but these items are moving!!

    ALUMINUM

    MAY 15th Shipment Date- We have one (1) Gunstock set in OG Orange, that has been giving our coating team fits as that particular OG color can be difficult to obtain that perfect finish, but we are keeping our fingers-crossed that this next attempt will be the one, and we can get that final backorder on its way! All other orders have been processed.

    July 17th Shipment Date- if you had a standard uncoated item, then it should be processed (again unless you have another item on order)!  Standard coated items have already begun to ship and the remaining items are in coating to be finalized, so once that perfect coated finish has been completed that special GOAT is headed home!  If you have a full custom set on order (added lanyard holes, left, both-handed, etc), those are continuing to work their way through production and should be on their way here very soon!

    August 22nd Shipment Date - All standard Stoned and In the Buff options have been processed except one (1) MM2 set that is in finishing and will go out this week!  Custom and coated items are on track, so be on the lookout for your item to ship based on its additional custom processing times (see above). 

    September 26 & October 24 Shipment dates are 100% on time, and some options have already begun to ship for these dates!

    TITANIUM

    April 17th Shipment Date - whew, this new GOAT has been putting up as much of a fight in fitment as it did in production, so we are working on the hand-fitment of each of these sets to make sure that GOAT will be a perfect fit for your knife!  As soon as each of these remaining sets get their OG checkmark, they will be on their way!

    ***Being that this is a brand-new option, please be sure to reach out if you experience any installation issues as these new options do seem to be a bit tricky, and we do provide a free fitment service for ALL titanium orders, so we can help get that GOAT wrangled in for you if your knife has a bit of variance that was not possibly accounted for in this initial release!

    May 15th Shipment Date/July 17th Shipment Dates - Good news, this last batch has finally moved into production!!!  Again we will be working through the production of this batch which is expected to take about 2-3 weeks, and then again each of these GOATs will go through their full fitment checks.  With the progress of this current batch, that may be another 2-3 weeks, but as with ALL of these final back ordered items, we are working them as quickly as we possibly can and thank everyone again for their gracious patience with this new option as it has been quite the endeavor!
    COPPER
    We have six (6) remaining copper MSI GOATs that still remain backordered.  The copper version of this new model has been even more difficult to find that perfect sweet spot for fitment than titanium, so this may turn out to be our ONLY release of these special GOATs for this model as it is proving to be way more labor intensive then we accounted for in our pricing and planning! But those are continuing to get massaged and refitted until we get that perfect OG action, and then those items will head home as soon as we possibly can...and may even come with that special adoption certificate signifying that these will be one off creations!  
    ALL V1 MODELS 
    FINALLY...Yes, those V1 models are on the schedule!!!
    Aluminum options are expected to enter that machine within the next two weeks, and this queue is not large, so we should be able to get those items completed fairly quickly, and have those Stoned and In the Buff options on their way first, and then coated options will follow once that custom service has been completed! 
    Titanium options will enter the machine as soon as that last May/July V2 batch is completed, so expect those items to finally head your way in October, as these new items are just taking so much longer than we anticipated for them to get through their OG checks, so these are looking like early to mid-October. 

    Demko AD20

    Pre-Show Gunstocks - All but two (2) orders (both being coated) have now been processed, so you should have received a shipping confirmation if your order does not have another item that is being processed!  

    July 17th/Show Gunstocks - Many of these orders have already shipped, and the remainder are currently in fitment, with the good majority of those remaining items being in our OG1 texture as this round of GOATs seemed to want to put up a fight for our fitment team (of course, since we are trying to get these last remaining items out as quickly as possible), but we are working each of these sets and they will be on their way as soon as they get that fitment approval! There are also a few anodized sets that are awaiting that next round of anodization, so those very special GOATs will be on their way as soon as that custom service has been completed!


    Please be on the lookout for that new GOAT to be headed your way as they continue to be completed, and we graciously thank you for your patience as we create that special OG for you!
