I have said previously a Lil Ayoob would be a grail and in the Chokwe thread said similar. An EDC sized (D4/N5) sized model of your model of choice- GO!!

If some models could truly be made smaller in scale, not just shortened I might be interested. Otherwise I'm not really in the market for shortened knives.

Little Sage 5 but with LC200N. Blade length just a tiny bit short of 2.5”.

Myrtle (with compression lock). Blade length ~3" or a bit over would be perfect.

This is pretty much how I feel. I typically like smaller knives and I used to want some of the bigger models that I like to be made Lil. Now I have so many 3" and under knives that I feel like I have that size range more than covered. Lately I've been starting to appreciate some of the bigger knives again. I used to want a smaller Manix 2 LW or GB but now I'm not so sure. I kind of like them for what they already are. I suppose I'd go for smaller versions but I want them scaled down not just shortened like the Para 3.

I'm a fan of the Native 5 and I was excited when I learned about the Lil Native. Now that it's out I'm realizing the Native 5 is already the perfect size for me. If I want something smaller I go for a Dragonfly, Urban, or Chaparral. I have no real need for a smaller Native. I'll probably end up with one just to have it but I'm in no hurry to get one.

There's honestly not a single model I can think of that I'd like better if it were smaller.

The more I think about it the less it actually makes sense because it would alter the ergonomics too much. So, something like a Military that feels amazing in my hand would definitely feel different if it were shrunk down 30%.

Lil Manix, mini Manix actually. Dragonfly sized or similar with cbbl. Would be fun to fidget with.
