Can we get some Ultem scaled Sekis please?

Ultem is a great material and looks amazing as well. I'd love to see a run of Seki models in Ultem with something like Cruwear. Yes, I know there are aftermarket options but I like factory direct stuff! :zany

Re: What is your favorite Delica variant?

The Delica is my favorite model and I have a lot of Delicas and Salts, but my favorite and most carried is probably the K390 Wharnie.

Delica wish list that could dethrone the K390 Wharnie...

Re: Spyderco 50th Anniversary Knife?

The first prd knife with the Spydiehole is the Worker. Maybe an updated version in CruCarta? A Cru-carta Worker would be amazing. I would be all over that. As long as it doesn't have a bunch of obnoxious lettering emblazoned all over the blade. A tiny little "50th" in the area where they ...

Re: Cricket Lightweight

We did a run of FRN Crickets many years ago. Had problems with twist and the Linerlock. If we ever did it again, we'd have to use 2 liners or change the lock. sal I've mentioned wanting a Cricket-fly (and Dodo-fly) a few times (maybe more than a few! lol) . Would a Cricket shaped SE Reverse S style...

Re: gray G-10 CPM-Cruwear... delica?

Absolutely. I would love to see Spyderco give the main Seki models both the Gray G10/Cruwear and Micarta/Cruwear treatment.

Delica, Delica Wharnie, Endela, Endura, and Jester, and Stretch XL in Cru-carta. I would buy them all, with many multiples of the Delica Wharnie and Jester.

Re: Could this Delica 4 be a fake?

Looks like a legit older Delica, just not a K390. Someone probably ordered a K390 and did a return putting the older Delica in the box. Pretty common scam on Amazon. Don't get any ideas people! :winking-tongue

Re: Delica 4 in 2024?

I've been carrying my Delicas about 99% of the time for the past 3 years or so. Mostly the Wharnie Delicas these days. I agree it is the best all around knife in the industry, and the K390 Delica Wharnie is the one I would choose if I had to only have one knife. I'd really like to see the G10 Delica...

Re: What’s your favourite exclusive for future models?

I said DLT Purple/Cruwear. I'd love to see the Seki models in this combo. The distributor exclusive Grey Cruwear Delica is also one I would love to see get expanded upon, but that was the only one so I dont see it happening. DLT's OD Green/TiCN Cruwear is also a winner. I'd love a Delica Wharie in a...

Re: 2023 - Did your preferences change or stay the same?

Same. I still like and carry the Wharnie Delicas the most, followed closely by the leaf Delicas and Endelas. Still love Seki FRN models. Still love Cruwear. Still want some 3V folders. Still love Micarta. Still want them to Cru-carta them all, ESPECIALLY the Seki models. Still want a Dodo-fly.

Re: What knife do you actually carry and use the most?

My Delica and Salt 2 Wharnies. All the blade I need 99% of the time packed into a tiny indestructible little package. I'd do just about anything for a Cru-carta and G10-Cruwear version.

Not again, but a first time collab with Nathan Carothers in bringing his Delta 3V protocol to some Spyderco knives. I don't even need a new design. Just get some Delta 3V blades loaded into a Manix XL (see my avatar which hasn't changed in years!) and Military 1 and they would be some bomb proof kni...

I hope Spyderco makes a good 2000 of these so that people can get one and a spare.

RamZar, what is your best guess on a release date for these based on time from reveal to release of other recent sprints?

Re: Superhawk

Agreed. I’ve been debating between a somewhat too short Tasman Salt SE and a somewhat too prone to rust Matriarch. Both are a compromise. What I’d really like is a 4~4.5inch SE ultra stainless bladed hawkbill with a linered tough as old boots handle (FRN would be good) in a colour I can find in lon...

Re: C95 Manix Sprint

I'm honestly baffled that we haven't seen this in 3V & OD Green Micarta yet. It would be such an epic knife. It is literally the knife that my avatar is based on and I told myself I would keep this avatar until this knife happened. That was like 4 years ago now. Lol. :-||

I've recently got back into fishing, so this is perfect timing. I've been right behind JD begging for a Catcherman re-release for years, so I am super pumped for this. Definitely buying a handful.
