New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
I had be in. Liked the second picture better. Has a little of a Techno blade shape.
Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
Solid design! Liner-less for me, but I’d take this over a standard lil native. I love the color and steel choice

I like the V2 a lot actually... almost reminds me of something like the Techno's more hardworking, less indulgent younger brother

Glad the version 2 is more appealing! Any other feedback?

Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
A serrated version! It'd also be pretty neat to even maybe have one of those barrel clips they have on the Rescue and etc. on a small compression lock model, it'd be all these different elements never before seen together on a Spydie and perhaps it just might grab more sales just from how interesting it ends up looking.

Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
Have always disliked the Native blade shape but this knife, especially version 2, looks great and I like the LC200N a lot too. Do Salt series knives have to be that ugly yellow?

Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
I should mention that when creating these mockups, I followed the existing edge and choil so as to not impact packaging when closed. Both point and edge location should be 1:1 with the existing Lil' Native.

Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
The bright yellow is there for visibility purposes should the knife fall into water.
I believe black is an option for some seki City h1 models.
I've also heard rumors of some models over there to be recieving lc200n variants that will have bright green scales in lieu of yellow

Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
Bright green, yellow, orange - all are pretty high visibility in the water, all are good in my book!

Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
I would prefer just a regular Lil Native Salt. If this was made first though, I'd probably pick one up.

Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
I would much prefer an orange or leaf green handle to the yellow and seeing the Caribbean had me thinking they could come up with some other more interesting handle design that is still easy to see if dropped in the water.Marulaghost wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 4:32 amThe bright yellow is there for visibility purposes should the knife fall into water.

Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
I'm okay with the yellow simply because that seems to be the most effective at achieving its intended purpose.KrazyKat wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 10:33 pmI would much prefer an orange or leaf green handle to the yellow and seeing the Caribbean had me thinking they could come up with some other more interesting handle design that is still easy to see if dropped in the water.Marulaghost wrote: ↑Wed Apr 24, 2019 4:32 amThe bright yellow is there for visibility purposes should the knife fall into water.

Spyderco has always put an emphasis on function over form.
That being said i can see this as an opportunity for some dealer exclusives....
Re: New Proposed Model - Spyderco Antilles
Huh I actually like that V2 quite a lot.
