Sal's Casual Bombshell Thread

[ThePeacent]

anybody knew about this? :eek:

Hi Atv,

We can consider it, but usually people buying diving or "boat" knives want them to be very inexpensive on the theory that they might lose it. Quality performance knives cost more to build and are generally more expensive to purchase. We've not done well with them enough to maintain inventory.

We have a model in-the-works that was designed by a kayak fisherman, but it has a point. When I'm in or near water (canoe, kayak, sail, snorkel) I carry a Salt but I like a point. I can do things with a point on a knife that I cannot easily do without one.

I was looking at Joyce's catalog section on Sprints and it seems we have a half dozen or so Sprints scheduled from Seki.

Remember the thread where Lance used a very pointed modified Jumpmaster 1 (I think) in his kayak? Did that influence the design of the Jumpmaster 2 or Aqua Salt? Or maybe what Sal is talking about?

I suppose it must be so. Whatever it is, H1 or LC200N and pointy fixed blade in whatever configuration just does it for me. It's just that nice and good for my uses and preferences :rolleyes:

Half a dozen sprints? It could be one steel.
1. Endura
2. Delica
3. Stretch
4. Dragonfly
5. Ladybug
6. Manbug

[sal]

That's one run with a new steel. Plus a few more.

That's what we like to hear! Can't wait to see what the new steel will be.

No walker's planned for 2018, but I'll put in a request for '19.

It's going to be a long wait, but the tease of a C22 run is quite exciting…

No, 1 through 6 are Seki City, 7 is Moki.

Any hints on what the new steel will be for the Seki (L-M-D-D-S-E) family?? I want to eventually pick up a Dragonfly but don't want to miss out on a new steel if there is an option coming up soon!!!

Hi Foofie,

We're working on a Salt version. Heat treating the spring is challenging. What is it you (or others) would like to see?

sal

Yes!!!

From over on BF regarding the FRN PM2 LW....

"Eric has been planning one for some time. The main advantage would be less expensive. Have to fit it into the queue.

[rivy]

Wow! FRN PM2 would be awesome. Wonder if they could keep the compression lock or have to change it.
