The Cricket already has 2 big Brothers
We have 2 bigger Crickets :rolleyes: They are called the Matriarch and the Civilian. Really !!! Seriously!! Take a very close look at all 3 of the models and tell me what you think :cool:Fifteen54 wrote:Cricket.
I even remember reading something of that ilk in the SPYDERCO STORY book by Kenneth Delavigne.
But if you want a bigger Cricket with the blade having the exact geometric symetry then I can go along with that one as long as I can get a Dodo with a longer/wider blade
Long Live the SPYDEREDGE Spyderco Hawkbills RULE!!
Yes but those two knives have a very specific purpose. I just want a larger cricket meant for edc, moveable pocket clip, maybe FRN handles...JD Spydo wrote:We have 2 bigger Crickets :rolleyes: They are called the Matriarch and the Civilian. Really !!!

You can tell a lot about a person by how they keep their knives.
Khukuri is pretty much the bigger version of Balance. Love these knives. :spyder:buddy54ck wrote: :spyder: :spyder:
How about the Balance!
There seems to be a lot of people withholding on the Balance, because of its size. It's like they are not getting their Moneys worth with this expensive design. Dont get Me wrong, I Love it, though I also feel that it could be scaled up a bit to make it perfect. I have large hands, and scaling it up would help!
JMHO,

All for a Spyderhawk XL with like a 4.5 - 5 inch blade! :) As far as revamping the Salt series...that would be awesome. I'd absolutely love to see the Tasman redone in the style of the byrd Meadowlark Hawkbill..love the choil on that handle, etc....soooo comfortable.

An Extra Large Spyderhawk: A Super High Five
BDNX>> if I was there I would be giving you a big "HIGH FIVE" :cool: Wow!! what I could and would do with an Extra-Large SPYDERHAWK :cool:BDNX wrote:All for a Spyderhawk XL with like a 4.5 - 5 inch blade! :) As far as revamping the Salt series...that would be awesome.

That would also be a great knife to target market to anyone in the commercial fishing, marine or any other type of hard demanding work environment. I would also say to have a marlinspike attached that would fold out from the back side of such a beast.
It's one of those "WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT" ideas :spyder: :)
Long Live the SPYDEREDGE Spyderco Hawkbills RULE!!
A BIG spiced up LAVA>> YES Indeed!!
That's extremely interesting!! I wonder what Chad (Daywalker) would say to that one. You know the guy that designed the Lava :cool:ozspyder wrote:I've always been vocal about a Mega Lava :) That would be sweet ! one with possibly a micarta handle !!! :p
I also always wanted a Lava with a G-10 or Micarta handle as well.

JD I have spoken to Chad a while back about this one and a few other guys as well. Chad was keen and so were many others I spoke to.
I had 2 of my Lavas pimped up by a forum member here in linen micarta I think and both with a low riding wire clip. They made excellent EDC companions. However as many have mentioned the belly was too small and too pronounced for a utility knife. You have to remember it was designed primarily as a SD knife. I have no problems living my current SS Lava :) but I have always hankered for a Lava with polished G10 or micarta scales and about 20% larger or maybe even more. A fellow Aussie also a member here (Th232) did a mockup of the larger Lava and started a thread in here.
A Mega Lava would be most awesome !!! :D
EDIT: Chad's involvement with Boker as a designer may have conflicting interests with Spyderco. For new designs I can see the conflict. A sprint or a enlarged version might be a possibility if we ask nicely and often LOL :p
