Blade 2 and ruby came with matte black OTT already.
Then had to acquire 4 matte black ruby OTT and 4 Plasma OTT with black, ice, emerald and fire lenses and switched them.
Have to thank Mr. Rick Fawcett for encouraging me to purchase the BLADE 2 OTT and to ifynanceu Josh for helping me acquire a matte black OTT and to all u here on o-review for the support.
Just cleaning out my messages and found a e-mail from 2004 that I sent to Oakley regarding the Blade IIs.
Me: How have you been lately? Long time no speak. I'm looking for the Blade II signature series sunglasses offered in the early part of 2002. Would you happen to have any left? Oakley: Unfortunately, we do not have any of those left. We still carry the Overthetop and Four S model, as you probably know. Me: Would you happen to know how many were made? Oakley: Regarding the Blade II Four and Overthetop;
I spoke with the brand managers, and they say that 5000 of the Blade II Four and 500-600 of the Blade II Overthetop were made worldwide. The difference in production is due to the Four being more popular, half as expensive and available at more stores than the Overthetop. Just so you know.
