Spyderco model in D2?

#1

If we were to consider making a run of a model in D2, What model do you think would be the most effective?

How about the Military and change the color of the g10 too.

Hi Sal,

I think a strong user, like the Military or a G-10 Endura. I agree about different color too.

Definitely a Millie! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> What about a Realtree or woodland camo G-10 handle? Perhaps an Olive Drab millie with a black-ti coated blade would do some justice to this AWESOME <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>! The Endura should experienc a run in D-2 and OD handles as well! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

Military with a gray G10 handle instead of black...

Sal,

Ditto the "strong user" input. Millie, Rescue, Endura, Chinnok, Perrin, or Temperance come to mind. Different colored G-10 would be a plus also.

(Meanwhile, I'll just dream on about the satin-finished D2 Spydierco FB Bowie/Survivalist with snakeskin Nukarta handles.....sigh!)

Hi Sal, I believe that it would be most practical to look at one of the US made models. Here obviously the Military looks like a very suitable candidate. If the Japanese producers can handle the task, Endura and Delica would be good in both blade configurations, Plain & SpyderEdge. But how about doing the new Persian in D2???

Clipits work!

bring back the calypso jr in d2. would be sweeeeet. thats pretty impractical so id go with the millie

Yea to the Military. Endura/Delica are perfect candidates too.

JBE · #10

Oh...and make it a gray Millie with a SS clip...

Definitely the <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> Military, with grey or green G10 scales, would be the One...IMHO. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> <img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

I love D2, so any of them would be cool. <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> However, the Endura or Military would be most appropriate.

By the time you read this, you'll have already read it.

Endura if you want to bring it to a price range most ppl can afford.

Millie if you want to please the <img src="spyder.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0> fans. And I agree on the grey handle w/ ss clip.

Military (With camo/od coloured G-10 scales or Endura (with CF or G-10 scales) or how about the Police?

CKE · #15

Millie or Endura. Different colour G-10 handle(really like the G-10 handle Endura idea)Grey/OD sound good.
Sal would you take the money for it now? Just ship when you have them done....hahahaha!!!

For a limited run of a great steel, how about combining it with a limited run of a great knife.
"The D2 Lrg Calypso PE"

or failing that the "D2 G-10 Native PE" for us poor folks who live in knife unfriendly countries where a D2 Military would probably be just too big.
BTW - I have a G-10 Native clipped to my pocket as I type <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>

My brain does somersaults at the thought of either of those.

why choose D2 when you have VG-10 or the awesome S30V?

and will the D2 be coated or uncoated? why not M2 instead?

dynaryder · #18

Military. Then coat the blade,make OD and desert tan handles,wire clip,and replace liner w/the ball lock. That would rock.

voxnaes · #19

How about a FB Temperance with green handle and green sheath. If it has to be a folder, I´d say Millie or Lil´T. The D2 needs a beefy blade!

I would want it to be a PE fixed blade, such as the Ronin or Temperance. D2 is a working steel, and belongs in a working knife, IMHO. If in a folder, well, my favorite is the Gunting, but I suppose the Mili would have a wider market appeal, and I would buy one, especially if PE.
