Endura handle material

#1

Post by Bluntrauma »

I have been looking around and could not find an answer to this question. Has the Endura ever come out with G-10 handles? I think that would be an awesome combo. Just wondering if it has been done or pondered? Thanks

Unless some little known Japanese market version surfaces, I believe FRN and SS are the only two handle materials ever used on production versions of the Endura.

Thanks Deacon That solves the past but, what about the future? Maybe it's just me but wondering if that could ever be a possibility. Food for thought anyway.

Oh man...those are going to be a big hit. Great choice on the foliage green Sal!

Haven't decided. :confused:

We have so many variations now of the Endura and Delica that adding more is dificult. OTOH, we'd hate to limit a model to a Sprint if it has large market appeal. I think the higher cost will limit sales.

Sal,

I don't think you'd have to worry about losing sales on the Delica/ Endura line. Put them out in G10 of any form with any combo of steel and I'm sure they'll be snapped up quick smart....black G10 should sell long term too :)

Actually, would love to see a line of different coloured POLISHED G10 handles.

I'll be snapping up as many G10 Delica's as I can. That will be like a C05 Standard with better steel. :D

Yummy!

Sign me up for one!

I'll also be sure to pick up the Military D2 in Foliage Green G10 just to get a first look at the color, while I wait for the E4!
