Excellent design! Sal?

This design is, to me, one of the coolest I've seen. I really don't get the idea of it being used primarily as a kitchen knife, but that aside, I would very much like to see this knife come out in a Carpenter steel in the 3" blade range. I would buy at least two and make this knife my main EDC....

Nice!

Blake, Excellent thread! I saw Ken's post of his Fenix's so I thought it might be ok to post my meager holdings. I bought a Sunwayman V10R Ti a few months back. Had it for 4 weeks and lost it - it was a little too big for my watchpocket and must have fallen out - almost made me sick. So, I've invest...

Kinda like "what car should I get" but here goes ... :) I tend to like smaller blades (ti Chapparal, Delicas, etc.) but my Southard is one of the best of my 30 or so Spydercos. It has a 3.46" blade (small for some folks-big for me) but the quality, strength(Ti), design, steel(CTS-204P...

I haven't used cotton balls (sounds like a good idea), but I will slide a freshly sharpened knife edge down the tip of my thumbnail very lightly. I can usually feel either way if the edge is razor smooth, has desired toothyness, or has micro chip-page. It seems like it might be a little safer than t...

1985. I bought a plain edge SS Worker in a knife shop in Klamath Falls while my band was touring there. Lost the knife through the years but carried it for at least 5 years! Loved that knife!

I don't carry a knife for SD, it's a tool. Honestly, I don't generally find myself out in situations where it's an issue. That said, I understand bad things can happen anywhere and I would use whatever I had available in such a situation. I get the value of planning, training etc and if my lifestyl...

Mine is in my pocket as I type. It gets a lot of use. It's light and sturdy with a great steel.
I like the foliage green FRN, and Delicas in general, are my favorite sized folder.
For me, that's a lot of positives!

No you're right, and I'm sure a huge percentage of that number are members who rarely ever come around, if at all, but suffice to say there are probably at least 1000 active members, and if the run will be less than 500 then people are going to miss out if all those people want one.
