designed by...aaa...hey Alex...designer? :D is the nicest piece presented, I hope Spyderco will upgrade the steel at some point but I'm interested in the S30V version anyway

I remember in the previous years Spydercollector also showed short videos for each prototype, a short presentation, opening and closing them, is this going to happen for these year's prototypes?

Even a little upgrade to XHP on the "Redback" would be nice. But then again I don't have anything in 204P...... Ahhh, we're all spoiled! :rolleyes:

Definitely want the standard clipittool. Perfect knife for tailgating/BBQ/picnic. Too bad the standard doesn’t give you option of serrations but I’ll live.

Also intrigued with the Techno 2, mantra 3 and the zoomer. Will prob end up with 2 of the 3 depending on prices/release dates

Thanks for the pictures! I love seeing the knives that come out of the meet each year. This is always an exciting thread to follow.

Thanks again for the report and fine photos. You always get such excellent pics under the tight constraints of time and location. Yowza!

RWL34 or CPM154 would be great, inline with his custom versions and already used in Taiwan production (Lil Nilakka & Darn Dao). S30V is no slouch but variety is the spice of life and all that. :)

Alistair is working on a 3" slippie version.

Okay, that would be a knife I would pre-order!

:eek: :eek: :eek: Count me in!

I had to do a little reading on RWL34 and CPM154. It sounds like good stuff, I'd love to give it a try.

Thanks Mr Blonde for everything that you do. I’ll also be looking forward to this one. Easily my favorite!

Mine too

A little dessert from the Spyderco Amsterdam Meet 2018! Just before the meet started, I had the opportunity to take a few close-up videos of some of the knives I had photographed for my other posts. I figure these clips will offer a better impression of the knives' sizes and how they fit the hand. The labels with numbers on the blades help attendees give feedback on these designs, on special cards that were collected at the end of the meet.

Thanx again Wouter.
Btw, I LOVE the Sabotage. Does anyone know what blade steel it will have?

I'd like a k390 blade Steel for the sabotage.....a very good piece of steel.

I was kinda thinking the same thing.
I was thinking 10V to be exact.
Although, I sure wouldn't mind CTS-204P either...

Wow, the Respect carried the number 77. Spyderco sure seems busy !
