Wow I was blown away by the Frontier! Definitely went straight to the top of my "I can't wait for this to come out" list!

And then I saw the Farid K2 and it was quickly dethroned.

10V looks nice. Maybe we can get a few crazy steel sprints.
What's a decimal point among friends??? :eek: People keep asking for hard-use blades, 35mm would do nicely, but think of the bevel angles. :D

Wouter,
Thank you very much for your hard work.

Well, so far I'm in for probably 2 Kiwi 4's, and that's it. The rest just aren't for me. Hopefully this next crop has something more my style. Then again, I still have a few knives already in production I need to pick up this year.

All except ones like the Superblue Dragonfly, which will be a sprint run.

I'm looking at a kiwi, an introvert and depending on how it feels, probably a frontier. Thanks for the great pics Wouter!

After seeing Wouter's pics, I'm definitely more interested in the Firefly. It looks like a nice slim design, and it actually reminds me of the older Terzuola models.

There were so many prototypes this year and also way more knives than usual which I can publish. I didn’t have time to finish them all since Sunday. I have a dozen or so knives yet to cover. I’ll probably get to prepare and post these amazing prototypes again in a couple of days. Thank you all for the interest and kind words.
I have a feeling this may be an expensive year.

1. Is it planned an Spyder Edge version for the ARK?

Giving it's SD nature, it'd make a lot of sense.
LC Kid, I forwarded your question to Sam. A serrated version is unlikely. It doesn't fit John's vision for the knife as a simple slicer, and Sam said Sal and Eric have never even brought it up.
