Who wants a Spyderco "Sharpened Pry Bar"?
If Spyderco were to make an aesthetically-pleasing "sharpend pry bar" type of knife, a fixed blade, perhaps with a blade length in the 3.5 to six inch range, or a series of them with different blade lengths, and either G10 or FRN handle scales, and a good steel, and very thick, say in the 3.8/4 MM thickness or above, would you be interested, or not?
If yes, what features would you want to see on it, and what materials would you like the blade and grip to be made of, and the sheath/scabbard?

Not interested. The Mule Team knives are plenty stout in 3mm stock. Adding thickness adds weight and reduces cutting effectiveness. I have actual pry bars for real prying needs.

Enuffs are already there, just a bit shorter. The Salt version can likely pry a door off the hinges.

As an official member of the minority of lovers of thicker blades, and under the condition that it's no ordinary steel, count me in! Must be affordable though. How about 154? Yes there's the Respect. But it's kinda big and pricey... I love my Bushcraft UK, wouldn't mind a second knife of that sort.

Re: Who wants a Spyderco "Sharpened Pry Bar"?
Give me a Tusk with a 4 inch blade and a much bigger/beefier marlin spike. The spike can do the prying, and the blade will actually be long enough to cut larger rope.

Re: Who wants a Spyderco "Sharpened Pry Bar"?
Isn't there a new fixed blade from Spyderco with a 4mm stock and FRN textured scales? Similar to scales you'd find on a Manix or Native LW? I believe it has various color options as well and I thought it was just the most original budget friendly idea to hit fixed blades in a while, not to mention the aesthetic/construction totally oozes Spyderco cool. The model is named 'Tuff Enuff' if i remember correctly or something similar.

Re: Who wants a Spyderco "Sharpened Pry Bar"?
After playing with so called “pry bar” knives, I gave up on them. They cut poorly and a pain to sharpen. Although I’m sure spyderco could probably make a more effective one
Now I’m in the opposite direction...I like to see some 1mm slicers! Lol

No thanks. I want a prybar *or* a knife, not a combo

Re: Who wants a Spyderco "Sharpened Pry Bar"?
Not for me.A pry bar can't cut good,and a knife can't pry good.There are enough tacticool toys on the market.
Whenever there is any doubt, there is no doubt.

Re: Who wants a Spyderco "Sharpened Pry Bar"?
I do love a folding pry-bar knife that is both:
1. So thick that it is terrible at cutting and takes up so much pocket space I have to relocate my wallet to balance my walking.
2. Just sharp enough to be really dangerous to seriously pry with while worrying about a lock that can't be designed to cope with lateral forces.
Me and the other fedora-wearing deodorant-lacking guys hanging about the food-court in the mall love 'em.
Even made Big Steve put down his nunchucks for 5 minutes.

Warhammer 40000 is- basically- Lord Of The Rings on a cocktail of every drug known to man and genuine lunar dust, stuck in a blender with Alien, Mechwarrior, Dune, Starship Troopers, Fahrenheit 451 and Star Wars, bathed in blood, turned up to eleventy billion, set on fire, and catapulted off into space screaming "WAAAGH!" and waving a chainsaw sword- without the happy ending.
