Sal, are there any plans to make a Carbon Fiber Military? For the future, which of Spyderco knives to we hope to see in Carbon Fiber? Thanks for your time, ronybear....

blue

How about one of the new knives for this years Forum Knife? I love the new Temperance with the trailing point blade with the green G10. You wouldn't have to do anything to it, except maybe engrave the blade. ~OR~ if we must go with FRN, then I vote for the new Meercat plain blade with a colored FRN ...

Sal, OK to not make your costs any higher (well maybe a little higher), I think we should go with the Chinook for the next Forum Knife!!! But please use some color for the G10, anything but black! I would support, blue, burgandy, green, camo, etc. Pass the extra expense on to us for the G10. You don ...

Sal, I'm sorry, but I can't get excited by a FRN model for the Forum Knife! If you don't want to go with a colored G10, how about the Chinook with the standard black G10 & the pearl bug inlay. If you don't like the Chinook then any of the Spydercos with G10 ie. Civilian, Lum, Police, etc. and add ...

Ok, I have read all the replies and there are some good suggestions. The one I read that I like the most is the Chinook with Blue G10. That is one of my favorite knives. I can't say I agree with the guys that say it should be a low end knife. The forum model should be an expensive collector edition ...

Has it been long enough to start wishing for the new model? I don't think so. The first Spyderco Forum Model, the Military Plain Edge with the Pearl Spydie Bug, was just beautiful. I think Sal should do another Military Plain Edge for the next FORUM MODEL!!! One with Blue G10 Scales or Carbon Fiber ...

I carry a Cricket everyday! Wouldn't leave home without it. I also use it for a money clip!

Please don't do a Sprint Run with FRN handles. What a waste of a perfectly good SPRINT RUN!!! If we are shooting for a new model Cricket, please, please use Aluminum or G-10 or even Titanium would be nice. The Blue G-10 used on the Bladeforum Native would be nice! IMHO!!!

Here it is guys! One sweet custom Civilian by none other than Frank Recupero!!! Frank took an Aluminum Civilian and 1200 grit sanded the tuffram aluminum finish off of the knife, high polished the body, fileworked everything that could be fileworked including the blade, the clip & both sides of the ...

I am bringing this back to the top, so maybe Sal can respond to this question! Thanks, ronybear.....

I think what the catalog is referring to is custom colaborations. Spyderco does not have a custom shop, but I wish they did!!! I know some companies do, such as Buck! We can only hope!

There are always going to be BLACK KNIVES!!! Everyone makes black. But did you ever notice that the collectors always jump on any variations with color!!! I have never said do away with black, not that would happen. I am just saying add some more color!!!

I LOVE THE IDEA!!! I won't carry the Spydercard in my wallet because of the weight! Even if you did not use the titanium, which I think would be great, how about the lazer cut outs like the "Q" & the "R"??? Or how about an Almite coated Aluminum??? Let's get some more input from people and maybe we ...
