For sure! Such a wild looking knife, and you know DLT does a great job with any exclusive. I'll be following this thread closely. A few out of the ordinary models popping up here and there in the exclusive market lately, so we can hold out a little hope here :D

I was thinking maybe a Rookie because of the baseball bat. But this is definitely cryptic!

Or with baseball...only one I can think of is a Rookie. But that super jacked guy definitely looks like a "tuff". ;)

A Tuff sprint or exclusive is so long overdue, it really would be cool if that's what this is.

A Tuff would be cool. A Street Beat wouldn’t be bad either.

Until they give more context or someone gets some inside information. I will choose to believe that an exclusive Tuff is on the way. What steel do you guys/gals want to see?

4V?
K390?
Cruwear?
3V?
So it goes.

Okay, I have no idea what it is. It could totally be a Street Beat.
So it goes.

I feel that more people have been asking for the street beat.

As awesome as a Tuff would be it just seems like there are so many other ways to portray something as tough. The baseball bat not really being the focal point makes me wonder if it baseball themed at all, or just a knife with wood scales.

So for me it is a tough knife with wood scales. 3V Shaman with stabilized maple scales.

Interesting indeed. For the brief period I had a Tuff I'd say it's perfectly at home if you were say camping, and wanted to baton (bat) the crap out of it to make some kindling -- I loved the knife itself, there's nothing else like it, but the steel really underwhelmed me with dismal edge retention, on par with 154CM IMO...

But if they were to drop a good tool steel with an SE option I'd be in for a PE & SE for sure.

:D

Street Beat would be awesome - as long as it isn't Red. I think Cruwear with purple scales would be awesome!
