Preferably a Manix 2 or Military. FFG, maybe... Purple G10? A deep purple-blue?

I think it'd be awesome, and it's a steel that's been rarely used by Spyderco.

So what'cha think boys and girls?

Hi Souta,

Welcome to our forum.

The next Elmax will be coming from Italy.

Thank you, Mr. Glessar.

Interesting, I do hope its used in a sprint run though. I think it'd be a good steel to expand upon. But I'm sure you've already thought of that if it is a good idea. In your greater knowledge of the business. Heh.

I've wanted an SR2 for a while, even better with a spydie hole.

I'd be in for a Manix 2 Elmax for sure. I'd probably go for a Millie or PM2 too.

Nice sig lines, BTW.

Elmax is awesome stuff, have any production companies gotten near the best out of it yet? It seems tough to work with and like it might involve a more complex heat treat.

Is any chance for Elmax coming from Golden after that?
Native5 will be really great platform :)

Has Elmax become to Europe what VG10 and ZDP189 is to Japan, thus not likely to appear on Golden knives?
