Ehm... was this one discussed yet?
https://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details/C81GCOFL2/1903

If so, I totally missed it. Then feel free to bury this thread.

If not: WOW! :eek: :eek:

I don't know if it has been discussed but a hard pass from me, sorry.

There was some discussion. I loved the spoof Texas Military that got posted.

I'd definitely buy an Idaho themed knife, so I can see the appeal for people who live in Colorado. :)

Admittedly not for me, but it’s a neat celebration of Spyderco’s heritage, so I’m all for it!

It'll be good for collectors once nobody can buy one anymore.

A TRUE Spyderco heritage knife should be for California. Call me when that one drops.

Aftermarket scales? That 3" of flowing American flag would be glorious at a 4th of July Barbecue! :)

I actually really like Colorado g10.. definitely different, and a cool nod to Golden. With a satin blade, I'd be all over it. The US flag blade though, combined with the CO g10 looks absolutely.. *shiny footprints, shiny footprints, shiny footprints* .. much too busy for my preferences. I think it's one of those knives that will be a really cool collector's piece in 20 years.. there's just too much going on there stylistically for me to be interested in buying/owning one haha..

Considering how many of you are here and moving to CO now, it might be a good idea... OR not. Definitely not.

That blade with a solid red, white or blue g10 handle would look nice. And I think the Colorado flag handle would look great with a plain blade. Together, it's just too much for me. If I were from Colorado, I might grab one and do a blade swap.

Back in the day it was cool for natives and locals to sport the CO flag cause there was a since of pride being from here. Now days, it is basically a tell tale sign that that person isn't from here. 100 Colorado stickers on a Subaru Outback just screams "transplant" today. I like the design though.

I'd like it better without the American Flag on the blade. No offense to Old Glory, but it just seems like "a bit much" here.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

It does absolutely no good to throw negative comments out there. Just because I really dislike the knife doesn't mean that it isn't someone else's grail.

My first reaction was not very good; but it's so over the top, it's growing on me.

Could be an interesting 50 knife collection if they expanded the scope after the Colorado edition.

The scales are kinda hard to look at, not my style.
