There is a new Lil Temp in the works, but it is currently on a back burner. We have so many projects in the works that some move slower than others. The Lil Temp has not been a great seller, so more study is required before coming out with another one. sal Is this the new Lil'T with more rounded ha...

I have to agree with previous posters. I own lots of folders, high-end prodo's, customs etc and the Lil'T is one of the best. The Lil'T is extremely underated and unsung heavy duty little folder.

I love CF (and F1) - please,please, please make the CF with a matt finish (like William Henry use) and not the shiny, super-easy-to-scratch finish on current Spydie CF models.

The Military carries great for such a big knife, clipped or unclipped. Amazing how it disappears in a pocket. It is however a bit overkill in an office IMHO. The Para is very nice too. I would go with the Millie, as it offers something very different to your Native. The Para and Native are more simi...

IMO Spyderco already makes a "Strider-ish" knife. (by that I mean, tank-like heavy duty build). It's the Lil'Temperance. I have a couple of Strider SNG's and if anything, the Lil' T feels more overbuilt than the SNGs. (thicker, slightly heavier). I would seriously doubt that the Lil'T woul...

It's been awhile since Sal posted about the Lotus Elise - I'm glad they had now got it together and you guys are getting the Elise in the USA - a very nice version too!

I don't know about the Paramillie's lock , as I'm still awaiting to receive mine, but the Compression Lock is anything but flimsy. The Compression lock is one of the strongest locks Spyderco makes. The same lock is on the Gunting and Lil'Temperance and they are both MBC rated (Spyderco's highest str...

I'm with Ted, a CF slabbed SS Cricket would be a great idea!

I've not taken the CF Cricket apart, but I see no reason why it cannot be done. It's an all screw construction. (see my pics from earlier post)

I have the PE CF Cricket - it's nice. Heavier than I imagined.....but as a user, the SE FRN beats it.

How strange - I too have a screw problem on the clip of my Lil'T - one of the screws won't come out - the slots are not a perfect cross shape and my screwdriver just keeps slipping and stripping because it can't get a good enough purchase.

In my experience, the clip works just fine. Maybe Spyderco made newer Temp's a little more trouser friendly in the clip dept.

How strong is the Lil'T lock?
I read something Sal wrote about the Gunting being 1000/lbs per inch - is the Lil'T stronger than the Gunting? (I would imagine they are very similiar.
