1. Chaparral 1 with bolster and wood (think Sage 4 but with shorter bolster)
2. Yojimbo II in CPM-M4 and orange G10

I really like the idea of a Cento 3 or 4 with CF and wire clip as well...

I leave the pic's to someone with a decent camera, but I can give you some impressions. + Feels better in hand and carry better than the Tasman + The blade shape is really useful with serrations for the heavier tasks and PE tip taking care of delicate cutting - Not an "office knife" Mine h...

SS Cricket here. It got a lot of positive remarks, so I ended up gifting it to my father-in-law before we left (which means I now have an opening for a new dress folder - just have to decide between the Air and new Chaparral ;)

The Higonokami is one of my favourite blade shapes. I had one in aogami blue (that I gifted to a friend), and one of Hanweis "double-higos". I would LOVE to see Ed Schempp's take on the design :D Don't care much for the brass handle though, get something more modern ;)

Nice mod, that's how the blade shape should have looked like from the beginning IMO.

I rotate a Ladybug zdp and a PE Cricket as my office edc. I like the flattness and the ergos of the Cricket a lot, the only gripe I have is that the scales are a bit slippery. Hopefully the coming sprint will have more traction.

No problem sharpening the reverse-S on the Sharpmaker corners :)

Nice idea. I was thinking in the opposite direction though. Orange g10 with a tool steel made to look like a utility knife. Might we see a bunch of Yojimbo sprints? The next "it knife" out of Golden. An orange Yo 2 with CPM-M4 would be extreamly nice :D The design has a lot of utility pot...
