Actually it is named Francis and it is a lightened up version of the original Francis
which was a beast much like the original Manix only totally different with a different
steel and different handle, therefore you can easily see the similarities..

The lighten up Francis is a Military model for those with a bad additude that needs
calming down. A classic. It has Stripes on it and you can also call the knife Psycho.

It is engraved with the following "Any of ya call my knife Francis, I'll kill ya."

Yeah I remember back in the day when the original Francis was released. I never bought one b/c you couldn't get one with partial serrations.

No sorry not leftie but it is the sprint run with unobtainium steel. It's NIB but i've used it for work about a dozen or so times to baton concrete blocks and scrape gaskets off cylinder heads when working on cars, but like i said it's mint and NIB. That unobtanium steel holds an edge forever, i've never had to sharpen it.

Shouldn't be a problem to fix it. The blade is not heat-treated. It is aluminum.

Forum Knife, = ANYTHING with CPM s90V or D2 Tool Steel AND MUST come packaged in ANYTHING Except the standard black and red cardboard box. If video games can do it so can Spyderco. I vote for Steel or Aluminum metal case.

11/24/2012 still no news on a forum knife. Can we get a statement or something sal? We are running out of 2012 and I have doubts if this is even going to happen. If its not going to happen can we please get a simple no or something??

Patience is a virtue. One that I don't have. :P I think the recent releases of the Dodo/Starmate/Szabo/Southard has kept Spyderco busy. Lot of S's there.
