I was always perplexed at the relatively short tenure of the TUFF model :confused: Because it truly had a nice cult following in the early part of this decade. It's been on my watch list for a possible trade or to maybe find one at a pawn shop or just flat out get lucky some day. I was in a financial quandry when that knife was on the main line up but it caught my eye big time and I would also welcome a Sprint Run or a return to the main line up.

I’d be interested in a Sprint Run, especially with the prototype titanium tooling. My only Schempp design knife is a Bowie and it’s a great knife. I would be interested in any Ed Schempp designs after buying the Bowie just so I could get it signed at the SFO sale last year. In hand that knife is excellent and it works well as a tool. Clearly the thought that went into the design process for the knife paid off. I bet that’s true in spades for the Tuff.

It’s always curious which ones they bring back. The shabaria came back and I don’t know that there was a great outcry for it. The tuff has probably had the most call for a return. Well, maybe the slysz Bowie has had more. It could make a return, you never know.

Sounds really good to me! But I'll take a sprint run Tuff any way I can get it (within reason).
