Spyderco Forums

I sure would love to know when Mr. Schempp is coming out with his new bowie tribute folder and other larger designs for Spyderco :)

I'm more intrigued by the upcoming bowie tribute folder by Ed.. I hope we get details and images on this knife at the 2013 Amsterdam meet :)

Hey Ken, yes that's a better way of putting it as you said. Not so much evolving but just working at it, figuring out a way to put out high quality, yet still affordable collabs that do the maker justice and at the same time give knife addicts that wow factor when they hold it in their hands.

Hi I've been keeping quiet trying to avoid asking the "will this be made, will that be made, please please" type of threads, but I am at the stage where I really do want to suggest it. We have had the Zulu collaboration (an affordable yet quality take on his popular design), seeing as how ...

Zulu is a design I've had my eye on for a few years now. I love the funkier spectrum of knives and wish Spyderco and Jens Anso would have more collaborations of his larger designs too. (seems like the other company making his designs produces a sh*t product).

Hey Uke, you did the Gayle Bradley justice with this fantastic review and excellent photographs. I as well as many others continue to praise how special this high value knife is.

my oh my.. this is a model I have been anticipating a while now :D

I hope they will be readily available from the get go

middle finger flick on the gayle bradley is probably my smoothest spydie. no problem using these two knives as a lefty.

Excellent review David, the Vallotton is a model I have wanted since it was announced but never seemed to try to obtain. Definitely a knife I want to pick up before they're discontinued. Does that glossy polished finish of the g10 seem to wear off at all?

Can't go wrong with the Gayle Bradley or Military, **** great values and will serve you well for years and years.

I wouldn't mind the semi circle type clip that is on the nishijin lum chinese, seems like a classy "light" fit for the air.

Personally, I'd rather see polished G-10. It's better looking than the peel ply and probably doesn't cost any more, might even cost a bit less. The red Schempp Persian Sprint looked great and, aside from the fugly liner jimping carried over from the CBBL versions, the prototype midlock Manix redux ...

Good question, it's been a few years since we saw this proto design. Would be nice to see a GB2 at the next Amsterdam meet :)

Hey Ed, any info on when we can get a sneak peek at your new designs. Have the photos made it to any magazines yet, or will you be posting any images yourself?

Take Care!

New catalog release has pretty much nothing to do with the new knife releases. Sure it can be in the new years catalog, but might not release until December 31'st :P

The general motto is, it's out when it's out.

Pictured is a Photoshop creation I made using three individual pictures I snapped of some of my favorite spydies. Included is the Navaja, Gayle Bradley, and Lum Chinese Carbon Fiber Nishijin. The images were originally photographed on a white board/background, then transported digitally onto a gold ...
