Yeah, I left that out!

But you won't see too many G-10 models coming from Seki in the future, at least in pocket knives. Most will go to FRN, for which they excel, like the new Police 4.

Wait... what?!?
Sal, did you just say that there will be an FRN Police 4 in the future? Has that been talked about before and I somehow missed it?

[Doc Dan]

A new FRN P4! I hope it has K390 rather than VG-10.

If all goes well we may see it in more than one steel. I too hope for K390 in the initial run.

Liquid Cobra, Spydersense and I handled the FRN Police 4 in person at this year’s OKCA show. It had black/green Zome handle IIRC. Pretty sure we’ve mentioned it several times! :)

[cangokaw]

did you notice a if it had liner, and style of handle scales?

[RadioactiveSpyder]

I’m nearly positive that it had nested liners like the Delica, Endura, etc. As far as style of handle scales, they were standard bidirectional FRN and looked basically like an Endura handle (in Zome).

Any idea what steel?

I'd be all over an FRN Zome Police. I love the look of Zome but it hasn't been used in my preferred models yet.

[shunsui]

I'd love a FRN Police4. The only zome colors I've liked so far was the proposed Cutlery Shoppe Orange and Black model. Think it was a Delica (Endura ?).

From Bladeforums, Michael Janich refers to "the upcoming Perrin PPT Sprint" with " texture pattern" solid carbon fiber scales.
This would be the second PPT sprint right? The first sprint was DLC coated. No other changes.
Wonder what the steel will be on this one.
My biggest complaint on this model was the heavy steel handle. So carbon fiber will help to lighten it.

Yes! Please yes!

This is right up my alley. Can’t wait to see a photo.

[abbazaba]

Not Sal but...

...Spyderco has a number of US-made Exclusives coming out with tool steel blades and DLC coating. I expect these will behave like the A2 blades. Since the blades are coated before assembly, only the sharpened edges will be exposed.

The only one I know about is the M4 Manix2 at BHQ... I wonder if we'll see a DLC M4 PM2?!?!

[JAfromMN]

Hey sak are the throwing knives going to be ready by spring. I got a nephew really looking forward to them

Ok so am I

[JAfromMN]

PS I wish they were made in usa or japan.

I'm just picky. I've had great luck with them


I would have had no problem paying more just for that.

Yeah I got issues. Long story :)
