I'm waiting for the S110V Yojimbo, and i hope that it wouldn't be a sprint run.

We all have different favorite models, scales, steels, etc., so it would be cool to see what everyone would choose if they won a contest or something and were given the opportunity to design the next sprint knife.

Lets hear everyone's Top 5 designs for a sprint. Try to come up with combos that might actually have a chance of happening, so keep it realistic.

Rules:

1. Choose a model that has been made before (current or discontinued...no new designs or changes to existing designs)

2. Choose a scale material that you know can be used on the model without additional investment (so dont say FRN for a model that never had FRN)


3. Choose a scale color (preferably one that has been used in the the material you chose)

4. Choose ONE (pick one only...dont say 3V/4V/Cruwear...or "a tough steel") blade steel that you know can be used in the model based on country of origin (so probably no Cruwear in Japanese knives or Superblue in Golden knives)

5. Choose a blade finish (Satin, Stonewash, DLC/TiCN, tan PVD)

6. Choose a blade edge (Plain, Serrated, Combo)

7. Choose a grind if different grinds are offered in your model (FFG, hollow, etc)


Maybe if everyone participates I can start a separate voting thread at a later date and everyone votes on their favorite designs (can't choose your own) and i will tally the votes. Maybe a dealer will take notice of any trends and do an exclusive based.on some of these ideas.
So, if I want a Spydiechef of Slycz Bowie sprint my only options are blade steel and finish? Okay, Spydie Chef and Slcyz Bowie, mirror stonewashed Vanax blades, red anodized scales (if I can't have a red G10 or red & black weave CF show side scale). I get no FRN because that requires the tremendous expense of making a mold. But, switching between a Ti scale and a CF scale simply requires machining the existing scale dimension in a different material.
