I'm still loving the K390/10v, so that would be my choice. Not sure I care too much about color, but I like the idea of a Sage LW the same color as the Chaparral LW.

Sal was testing REX121 in the SageLW at one point... I don't think I'd mind one of those either!

I thought Sal nixed the production Rex121 SageLW in another thread. I would love to have the same steel and color options as some of their other lines. It's been woefully neglected. I'd love everything from a salt version to K390.

Xhp one would be nice. The Taiwan plant should have that steel 😁

Since this is the compression lock that I own who sports the best action, I would love to see it paired with one of the best steels. Vanax SuperClean with LC200N liners would be my top choice !

Keep the scales tho, they rock ! And for the color : White or very light grey, a clean color.

Well that's what they used for liners on the Carribean no ? I know it's LC200N on the blade too for those, but Vanax liners would cost more since it's pretty hard to find. Only dealer i know where I live is Eurotechni, and M390 is el cheapo there compared to Vanax :')

Grey is the new black 🙄 Actually, I have so many grey knives now that I'm actually starting to appreciate black again

I'm not sure about steel or color. We've seen a lot of that red they've been using lately. I guess I'd interested in a SPY27 with the cobalt blue
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

Cobalt blue is really nice, the one used in the Native 5 S110v (I think it's the same as the SPY27) is my favorite kind of blue.

that and any steel, i'll take it :)

For the Manix 2 LW and all I saw it, but for the Native 5 they must've chosen the tiniest bit of lighter !
