I can also get behind the idea of a forum knife that is outside of the norm. Swick FB would be awesome, or even a smaller knife like the Dragonfly or Ladybug.

I'd vote for Dragonfly. A cool EDC friendly unique-ish iteration of one of my most commonly used models would be great.

I’d like the dog tag but like I said the powers that be have made all concealed blades illegal, my Swiss card is a prohibited weapon.. what a time to be alive, but I digress..

I’d like to update my dragonfly vote to a G-10 dragonfly. :)
Alternatively the roadie would be a great option too as it’s legal for (i hope) all forum members.

Seems no matter the country, "common sense" and "weapons laws" never seem to coincide.

Dragonfly would be my second choice after the Jester. How would people feel about a PE hawkbill dragonfly forum knife? That would be unique, amd something not currently offered.

Quite right, to be fair though my Swiss card is probably the most dangerous knife I have in that it’s got a tiny tang set in a smooth plastic handle, the blade is constantly blunt and made out of repurposed tin foil..it’s not a favourite item.
I would be 100% happy with;

Dfly
G10 dfly
Roadie

I think that a model they’re already producing with some cosmetic changes has the best shot to get made. When you stop to consider the extra effort that any kind of special version entails, it makes you realize how lucky we are that forum knives are even a thing.

I’ve been gone for a while and the first thing I did when I logged back in was to see if a forum knife discussion was going on.

Always down for a forum knife.. my only request is that the lock be left hand friendly. Compression, back or ball bearing. No liner locks please

Tank, haven't seen you around in quite a while.

I think a PE, Hawkbill Dragonfly, especially in VG-10 would be an excellent forum knife. Maybe even..... FFG? :D

Whats up xceptnl, Yeah kinda drifted away from the forums for a while. Love the idea of a PE Dragonfly hawk. Maybe some cool color G10 scales would be a bonus. I just picked up the SE Salt version and its a great little guy.

I think an all G-10 version would be super, with Navy scales. It would be like a micro Superhawk. As for the Salt, mine is in my watch pocket today (as it is most days). Wouldn't an Navy or Green FRN version be equally as impressive.

One (probably lone) vote for a Ti CF Military with a serrated H1 hawkbill blade.

OK, maybe a Para2 ?

As dog tags are meant to have personal information on them, I think the dog tag idea is brilliant.

Not a fan of the dog tag (or fixed blade) but will most probably pick up a forum knife regardless.
IMO The "Chokwee" or a solid Super blue Dragonfly or Calypso Jr with wood or micarta scales would be Da Bomb :)

I would love to see an Urban LW with a Vanax blade as a forum knife.

Forum Dodo will be epic. Dark green 204P. :) But I will take almost any color, almost any steel. XHP would be nice with dark burgundy polished G10 and ceramic ball. PE and one SE for Joe :)
