What would you like to see made in CTS-204P and forest green? I would love to see the UKPK in G10, the Endura, and the Straight Spine Stretch.

I voted Endura and Manix 2. Those would probably be the only two I would purchase, but I do want to see all of the options listed, produced with this steel and scale color.

My top pick would be the Manix 2 (both g10 and LW).

I'd buy the dragonfly and UKPK for sure. I'd also buy another Military if they were available again. This combination is my favorite 'beater' military.

Depends on where it falls in the rust resistance spectrum. If it's as good or better than VG-10, then either the straight spine or regular Stretch 2. If not as good, then no interest at all.

Stretch and Endura but I would be very happy with it in any Manix.

Larrin rated it just slightly better than S110V, which is about as stainless as it gets(with currently used steels), before going to H1 or LC200N.

Police in FRN.

Might buy an Endura, but would definitely buy a Police.

Manix 2, Shaman in others.

By the way, there is already a Para 3 release, I have one in my collection.

Definitely stainless.

I voted "Other". Because I'm a serious old school Spyderco fan and there are several older models that I would love to see return in one of those modern "Supersteels">> and this CTS-204P would be a really good one. For instance we are about to see a sprint run of the C-60 return soon>> now they've already decided it will be done with VG-10>> but I would love to see that model return with CTS-204P.

I would also love to see the return of the JD Smith in CTS-204P. I would also like to see a past full SE model in that steel as well. The older ATS-55 era Stainless Handled RESCUE model which is about my all time favorite out of all the "sheepsfoot" bladed models>>yes I would like to see how it performs in SE as well. Maybe even one of the older Hawkbills in that steel too :cool:

Not near enough of you are voting Dragonfly. M390/204p/20cv Dragonfly has been needed for a long time.

I voted SSS. While there are others that would also benefit from this steel I think the SSS would have the largest appeal. I really wish the Ivory one was in this steel.

I'll echo the others in wanting the P4LW in 204P. I hope the people at Knife Works are taking a look at the couple of threads that talk about their exclusive line of knives.

I can vouch for 204P being as good or better than VG10 in this respect.

There is already a forest green 204P Para 3, so I'm not sure why that's included in the options. I am also wondering why the Native 5 wasn't included as an option... I would much rather have another Golden-made G10 version than a FRN model out of Seki. Just my two cents...

There was a Native in the same color G10, with S90V blade steel.

I am well aware of that Native, I have it. How does that stop KW from producing a standard peel-ply 204P version?
