Does the rumor say "wharnie"?
the 4 was a wharncliffe.

Thanks!
Since Sal did not specifically mentioned "4" I was not entirely sure what he is referrering to.
i see. good point. the 3 is still available and the previous comments were about the 4, so i think it's safe to assume, but i could be wrong and it's just wishful thinking.

I imagine there would be some reservations about changing a design by a person that has passed away. but I would really like a 4 way clip and a non-pinned pivot.

I hope you're not wrong Ladybug93. I'd be happy with a return of the original. Or even forest green FRN and the laminated ZDP189 would be great. I'll just be happy to have it available. I think I'd be in for 3 of them, one for me and 2 for gifts.

i was just putting a bug (so to speak) in sal's ear. i doubt it would be spy27 since it's a seki knife.

Actually forgot about the pinned pivot.

The Centofante 3 I had luckily never gave me reason to wanting to adjust the pivot, but sure a screw there would be a real plus in general.
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

For the sake of argument, let’s say the knife retains the pinned construction. Wouldn’t LC200N make the most sense?
