I'll acknowledge that they're not his best selling designs, or those most popular with others in the "knife afi" community, but they're the ones I've carried and enjoyed the most over the years.

While I have more experience, I think Eric is a better designer. He's taken designs like the Paramilitary 1 and made it much better with the Paramilitary 2. The Para 3 is really all Eric.
FYI, VG-10 was created for grafting of plants.

In my eyes Sal, you are THE DESIGNER. Dragonfly is a masterpiece IMHO. I only pray for a 3 inch Dragonfly. Swedge and all. THAT would be the best edc folding knife ever created by human beings. Or aliens :)

I am quite surprised that the Stretch "only" makes rank 5 on your list... as much as you seem to enjoy it..The Deacon wrote: ↑Sun Jan 27, 2019 5:12 amMine would be, in alphabetical order:

It was to hard for the deacon to rank his glesser designs...
It's like telling your children who's you favorite child. :p
I'm guessing the kiwi would rank higher than fourth..

Re: Your top 5 Sal Glesser designs?
All the recent threads regarding the Stretch have encouraged me to carry my VG10 Stretch1 this past week, which has reminded me how highly I regard this model and why, even though other models have kept it out of my pocket for quite a while.
So, I need to amend my top five Sal designs (in order of model number):
Military
Calypso
Stretch
Chaparral
Shaman
Pending the time I’m about to spend with my Caribbean, another revision may be needed...
