If you could create your dream Spydie.
Hmm
G-10 Lava or a G-10 Caly Jr with jimping.
not sure if the Dodos blade shape works ideally with S90V, but if it does, make it w/ peel ply CF.
The dodo has a following similar to the manix, if offered in a sprint with higher end materials, its sure to sell out. Esp if the pricing ratio is comparable to the mini manixs original msrp,
example
Original mini Manix MSRP when the Market was GOOD, apx $190 (compare a current VG10, Japan Made $200 msrp G10 Endura)
At the same time, a Dodo, with same materials & origin (with exception of the ball lock) retailed for $129 (at the beginning, WTF?) and I think maxed out at apx $150 before close out, making it easy to find around $80 back then (good luck today).
If a new updated version was marked up in similar fashion there is NO way it wouldnt sell out immediately.

+1 on D'ALLARA SALTS!!!!!!!!!!!!SaintSatinStain wrote:I would have the D'Allara Droppoint and Rescue as Salts; they along with the Ladybug spearpoint (around neck with keys and Leatherman Squirt) and the Ladybug Rescue (in emergency kit) serrated are what I carry daily. I designed a shoulder bag with four pockets to carry the D'Allaras, a flashlight, and a leatherman Wave, and first aid and emergency kits (flint/steel, fishing gear etc) in small Otter boxes. Rustproof D'Allaras; Ladybugs too. All cops, EMSs, campers, hunters, and bicycle tourists should have them.
The D'Allaras are the best Spydercos made, no contest.
