It would pay homage to the original design, while fitting within Spyderco's alternate saber grind 'family'.

Looks mean/cool.
Nothing for the "pry bar folks" though...

I’d love to see this! I’ve been considering picking up a used Renegade but I would be great to have something similar with more modern blade steel.
Re: Is anybody interested in Renegade Chief? (saber grind clip point)
Nope, the tip is already thin enough. I would not mind the hollow grind. Although when I think of it the hollow grind would quire different geometry, so with a reasonable tip shape (with that I mean less extreme as it the image above) it might es well work.
Still - I would rather see the comeback of the Worker instead

Yes, as a Flash Batch. Keep the swedge as well.

Yes, I'm definitely envisioning it with the swedge. Basically just massage the Renegade blade onto the current Chief platform. Keep the Chief opening hole size and position, tip position, jimping and choil geometry, but grind it like the Renegade.
