I was looking through presports and I found this. It's a Hurricane King blade that is somehow limited edition. From the picture it just looks like a regular HK655 blade. so Does anyone know why this blade is limited?< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" ="">

the same BS special edition  as mine holda.
 
I think this is just the HK. Here in Europe they also sell HK saying HK Limited Edition (I think because they are numbered).

you can see in dmv sportsmadison selling HK calling HK limited edition.
 
It is just the HK as always. It is not HK 655 or something different than HK.

there are significant differences between the old HK and the 655.  such as 655 painted on the face and the lens on the handle.  there also isnt that nice yellow curve on the back of the handle and instead has been replaced by a design of a lion which symbolizes WLQ's roaring cho.

well, it technically is limited edition.  all the HK blades are limited edition to an extent.  the thing about the HK is, the limited edition part has always been assumed as the factory only cranks out so many of these blades at a time.  i dont think its right to call it a limited edition as a way to market the blade like what the site is doing.
