Upcoming Sabotage
At least that's what the designer/collaborator calls it.
I really love this knife! The design is awesome imo.
I'm just really,really hoping that Spyderco will put a high end steel in it. Nothing against S30V, mind you. Just think that CPM-10V or Bohler K390 would be nice. Also, maybe CTS-204P or Bohler M390. Just such a big nice blade. And with all that belly, would be a good slicer/skinner I imagine. That alone makes me think that CPM-10V would be a great choice. I know the K2 with its 10V blade is just incredible. Plus, some more 10V would be nice. No?

Re: Upcoming Sabotage
Hey guys,
As far as I'm concerned, the steel choice is fine with me.
My questions are, will the flipper version ever be offered?
And also, will there be a mini version like Nati offers?
Just so happy that this collaboration is happening, otherwise, I'd probably never get to experience or own this design.
Later,
Don

Or, did you mean whatever they choose is cool?
Sorry, from the pics I seen it didn't say what steel it had.
Re: Upcoming Sabotage
10V and K390 are slicey, while the Sabotage design is more choppy. And chips on K390 are a pain to sharpen out. Something like 3V or 4V (Cru-Wear, maybe) might be a better fit for the design.

On the IWA video posted somewhere here, Eric says the steel is S30v.
I have no problem with this, especially if it keeps the cost down.

BD1 Mule - $70.
I get that it's not that simple, but 4V is very interesting.

Re: Upcoming Sabotage
For that type knife, I woiuld have no problems paying extra for a premium steel. Again, not to say s30v isn't premium.
Re: Upcoming Sabotage
I do like the look of this. Nice big blade.
When us the release date ?
When us the release date ?
3 x Endura 1 SE, 1 x Endura ? CE and a Black Pacific Salt. Want Aqua Salt, Fish Hunter and a Pacific Salt Yellow.
Re: Upcoming Sabotage
Love the look of this blade (especially with the orange scale) but far too big for me. Id like a mini version though with a blade no lomnger than 3 in.

It's too bad, I really like the knife.

Re: Upcoming Sabotage
If they make a mini version 2, flipper or not, I hope it comes with a lockbar insert.

Re: Upcoming Sabotage
For s30v at that, not a buy for me unless it was on clearance.

Re: Upcoming Sabotage
I don’t care if the blade is made out of solid diamond, I have no use for a $300 knife.

I'm wondering if the title of this thread is setting off alarm bells at the NSA. :p

Re: Upcoming Sabotage
No worries. The Sabotage has been subverted.
A knife by any other name would cut as deep.
I look forward to this one most of all.
