Future Sprint Runs ?
Hello everyone ! The new year is around the corner and some Sprint runs will be coming our way . What new Sprint run knife would you like to see in the future ? It is nice to see classic runs on a yearly basis .
Ti + CF, full flat grind, with primary edge at max 25 degrees inclusive (for ease of sharpening at Sharpmaker's 30 degrees (only very small part of blade is being sharpened)) (I'm hard to please, aren't I? :) ):
- Native
- Police
- (somewhat larger) Walker
- (mini)Manix
- Stretch (we will probably see this one, won't we Sal?)

Sprint runs I would like to see:
Mas Ayoob C60 in G-10 or Peel Ply CF
Police and Rookie in dark blue G-10
Dodo in ZDP-189 or M4
I am also looking forward to the Stretch sprint, since the SS/Kraton insert handle was the primary reason I never considered it.

I don't believe in safe queens, only in pre-need replacements.

Yablanowitz hits the nail on the head.
I could not ask for anything more than Yab listed. Perfect for 2007!!!!

Sal, Are you out there reading this???????
5 out of the first 11 are looking for a new Police varient and 3 wanting a sprint run Rookie. I carry SE G-10 Police converted to TU, RH and LH carry and I have converted many, many more over the years (both SS & G-10).
If there are 2 spyders that deserve rebirth and rejuvination these are the ones. Bigkahunasix

Dodo more than anything else. Something as simple as just a different color of G-10 would be enough for me, a new blade steel would be even better. Idealy I'd like to see a Dodo in full SS, but I doubt that sort of thing would be seen on a sprint run.

By the time that comes out, I should be able to afford it :D
Edit: Make that blue anodized titanium :D
