What about a Manbug Salt?

#1

Post by Infinite Zero »

Is anybody else interested in an H1 Manbug with a Spyderedge? With all the Manbug variations already available, a Manbug Salt seems like a definite possibility.

I agree, hopefully in SE

H1 would require a hollow grind.

Yes please! Plain edge. Ladybug salt is my summer carry, manbug salt would be better.

Give it time. I'm sure the Manbug will get all the (successful) variants that the Ladybug got.

Here's one i'm just gonna throw out there....how about a Manjester? You know..give the Manbug a Jester shaped blade with the finger ramp and jimping at the tip. Since the Manbug has such a big belly, it seems logical to put that ramp on the blade. I bet the little thing would make an awesome skinner for its size.

I think that you are on to something there! In fact I think that I would love that...of course I would love it more in the g10 bolstered version.

Evil D, you have come up with an amazing idea for a hybrid! The ManJester you describe would qualify as one of my fantasy Spydercos--especially if it had G-10 handles (maybe without the bolsters) or textured CF or Micarta...or anything but SS. I'm in for two (or more).

I second that Evil D! I bet you though, they'll make a Salt Manbug.

I've been hoping for a black Ladybug Salt, but a black Manbug in H1 would be even better.
