I like the Jester, but thought mine needed to be a bit pointier, plus I never needed the front jimping, so I did this... please don't beat me all you Jester fans... :o

Dude! You should have just sold me your Jester and bought a Ladybug. :D

I got to admit though it does look pretty nice.

It looks just like a "Stretch Mini" - I really wish mine was in PE, but I really like it.

- best wishes, Jazz.

I'd like them to bring it back too. I got one, PE black FRN a few years ago (I think just before they were discontinued) and EDC'd it until I learned that it was discontinued. I've been EDCing the H1 Ladybug since. This is one of those Spydies that I wonder why they did discontinue.

Just to make it one more count on the "yea" side: I'd be all over more Jesters. FRN or Micarta would be my preference. And VG10 would do nicely.

Actually, I'd almost prefer the Jester in AUS8 or 8Cr13MoV to VG10.

For me, a lot of the appeal of the Jester is its cheap excellence.

And yes, I would adore a new Jester.

Yep, I want a Jester too. I would love to be able to buy one with an upgraded steel in G-10 or micarta. Would love any burgundy or green colour. It'd be the only small knife I would really have, since I'm usually interested in bigger blades, but I find something quite alluring in that blade shape.

Same size and shape
Blue micarta scales
FFG ZDP189 blade

The thing would be a keychain laser! ;-). Talk about a matter separation device!
