Chief 1st sprint opinion poll

#1

Post by Bdubs808 »

I have a Chief in bound and I'm more excited for it than the last couple releases I picked up. I really like large folders; started out as a teenaged Cold Steel fan, yes laugh at me because I know the big knives can get ridiculous. Ridiculous is fun :)
Anyhow, vote for 1 steel option as the first Chief upgrade.

I voted REX45, but only because K390 wasn't on there ;) +1 for the Golden peel ply CF.

Voted Rex 45, since I know now that it's essentially like HAP 40 (thanks Ferider!), a steel I like a lot on my Endura and Stretch.

But to be honest, what I'd really like to see:

1.) An FRN lightweight version (exactly like it's done on the little brother Native)

2.) A Micarta version.

I personally would be totally ok with S30 V on both...
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

LC200N is the only option that interests me more than S30V to be honest.

Salty hardware and LC200N, things already a giant steak knife :D Would love it for food prep on the go.

S90V also a good choice. Rex45, Maxamet, K390

Thor Damasteel should be the first sprint

I voted LC200N though because I would like to take this knife to the beach.

This was a tough one.
I consider LC200N, Cru-Wear and REX 45. Voted for REX, jus cuz.

But frankly I would buy any sprint run. LC or some nice tool steel. Just for love of baby Jesus sell it in Europe. And please keep it in G10, I dont need some fancy CF that will rise the price into space.
In the pocket: Chaparral FRN, Native Chief, Police 4 K390, Pacific Salt SE, Manix 2 G10 REX45

Then what about nice FRN, and a lightweight version that would LOWER price even more down to earth?? ;)
