Re: You can run any model you want in LC200N. Which do you choose?
I’ll assume Japanese models are out, though the Police4 may be a sign of things to come; in which case an FFG Pacific Salt and a Stretch, each in PE and SE LC200N, would be nice.
I’ll assume Taichung’s Sages will remain S30V and Chaps XHP. I’d like a Kapara in LC200N.
Golden models that are not already in LC200N? Sure, why not?
But I’m not hankering for everything to be saltified. LC200N has a wonderful sharpening response, and anyone liking VG10 (I’m one) will like LC200N’s wear-resistance.

Kapara! The food-prep oriented design of the Kapara makes LC200N a natural choice.

This! Add Titanium liners/screw set and a ceramic detent, you have a perfect knife. I’d pay almost Paysan prices for this.DukeNiemand wrote: ↑Sat Jul 06, 2019 9:22 pmKapara! The food-prep oriented design of the Kapara makes LC200N a natural choice.

How about an Enuff?

You mean that like in: "LC200N has a sharpening reponse comparable to VG10, but better wear resistance?" THAT would get me interested in LC200N indeed, while I don´t need its degree of corrosion resistance...
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)

Re: You can run any model you want in LC200N. Which do you choose?
I dont have VG10, but LC200N is a great steel to sharpen. It response much better to medium ceramic as S30V and sometimes I feel like I can get nicer edge on LC.
Like it is a perfect steel when you dont need crazy edge retention. Its easy to sharpen, hold a very nice edge, rustproof, fairy tough.
In the pocket: Chaparral FRN, Native Chief, Police 4 K390, Pacific Salt SE, Manix 2 G10 REX45
Re: You can run any model you want in LC200N. Which do you choose?

I find LC200N’s sharpening response better than VG10, along with its wear-resistance (and corrosion-resistance). However, VG10 is not far behind in any of these categories, IMHO.

Military, Manix 2, Stretch. I’d like a Catcherman in PE, unlike everyone else.
:spyder: Shaman REX 45, Smock, Baby Jess Horn CE, Spydiechef, Schempp Bowie,Ti Fluted Military, Titanium Military, Native S30 V and G10, PM 2 in S35VN, and S110V, Manix 2 LW BD1 and SPY 27, Sage 5, Positron black CPM S30V, Chaparral w/Raffir Noble scales, SuperLeaf VG 10, Ladybug H1, Dragonfly 2 in ZDP 189 and Superblue/420J1 and H1, Delica in ZDP 189, Clipitool Standard, the Cook’s knife VG10, Santoku, paring and utility knives, all in MBS 26. :spyder:
Re: You can run any model you want in LC200N. Which do you choose?
I'd be thrilled to have the Catcherman come back in either edge type. It might displace my Pacific Salt, being larger, lighter, having thinner blade stock and a pointier tip. Sounds great!

Re: You can run any model you want in LC200N. Which do you choose?
If this whole rumored Toxic Green LC200N series out of Seki really comes to fruition, I REALLY think they ought to bring back the Catcherman and Spyderhawk, with both models in both PE and SE and the Catcherman with a CE variation as well. I think these would sell well in FFG LC200N. These models need to be permanent fixtures in the lineup.
