Some things I would like to see from Spyderco ... you?

[Sumdumguy]

Would a CBBL Native offer anything a backlock Native does not, besides a new lock type?

Yea, it would offer me a reason not to buy it!

[Wartstein]

Bring back the Stretch 1:
Though the currrent Stretch 2 is a good one, I liked the Stretch 1 (quite recently discontinued) a lot better: More cutting edge in less closed length, hand placed closer to the edge in a not choked up position, tip more acute, for me personally better ergonomics (I like that "hook" or "parrot beak like feature" at the rear end of Stretch 1 handle)
Only thing I would transfer from the current stretch 2 to a fiction "new" stretch 1: Extending the blade in width further down so that there is no step between Ricasso (choil) and the cutting edge

I would like to see a custom shop, with a custom page to design your own knife. Make the most popular knives available, and then take a poll from this forum for a couple of additional models to be added. Yes, some might get pricey, but the guy ordering it won't care.

I’m thinking more like a non-flipping domino shaved down by 1/8” in blade length and use a cbbl. The native is not small manix. The handle is too short and it tapers on the back end. Blade shape is a more drop point than leaf.

I’d like to see a compression lock flipper with G10 scales on both sides. A Paramilitary flipper would be something.

[RazorSharp86]

Would love to see more Lc200N models.
Full flat ground LC200N Wharnnies from the sale line would be great!

More slipjoints are welcome. Especially with new, exciting and experimental steels. Way cheaper to buy into a slipjoint with fancy steel vs. other models with fancy steel.

More kitchen knives!!!!

Something that compares to a Benchmade 200 Puuko. Affordable bushcraft/ camp knife with scandy edge with great dirable steel for an affordable price. Benchmade did it- why can Spyderco not?!

First time poster here. hello everyone.

I'd love to see the Slysz Bowie 2 come around. Looks like the perfect knife for me but second hand prices are insane.

Posted this somewhere else already, but it fits this thread:

I´d like to see two additional versions of the Kapara, since I like the blade and handle shape (especially the cutting edge to closed length ratio) so much:

1.) A "budget-version": Same overall shape, but FRN scales, backlock and even VG 10 would be ok with me. Would be kind of an "Endura 5"
2.) A more "outdoorsy version": Keep everything as it is in the existing Kapara, but scales made of rough Micarta and a little jimping on the ramp and in the choil.

I´d purchase all 3 versions I guess...

K390 and CTS XHP wharnie Delica.

I would love if all future Salt models had H1 for the SE blade and LC200N for the PE blade. I so badly want some H1 SE in the Golden lineup.

[Wartstein]

Third time I come back to this thread..

I´d like to see a quite heavily modified Native 5 LW: Get rid of the choil, so the cutting edge extends all the way back to the handle; move that "guard" on the handle forward, so you get a good four finger grip and when doing so, your hand is placed close to where the edge starts.

Some will say, that would be not a Native anymore; others that there are Spyderco models that already look like that.
But: Really? For the (relatively low) price of the Native LW? In S30V /S 35 VN? At that minmal weight? Featuring the best backlock ever?

Don´t say Centofante 3, that hollow grind is something really different...

Howsoever, I like my Native 5, but there are times when I´d wish for more cutting edge in that great leaf shaped blade and not having to choke up for a really good grip (my hands are at least large, leaning towards X-large)

[JD Spydo]

Compression lock flipper all the things!!!!!!1!!11!!!!!



Just kidding. Maybe. :rolleyes:



Actually I'd like to see more sprints of classic models in modern steels. (cue JD lol).

Yeah like a JD Smith in K390 or M-4>> or better yet a C-60 Ayoob model in M390 or REX-45. A C-36 Military in a new Carpenter Supersteel that hasn't been introduced yet. All of the above in Micarta or CF handles

Bringing back models from the GOLDEN ERA of SPYDERS (1998-2004) in newer/better blade steels would be a grand idea indeed. And I'm wide open for suggestions for handle materials for many of the older models..> What the heck even bring back the original type Micarta scales for revamped GOLDEN ERA models :cool: A new C-44 Dyad in Micarta and LC200N on both blades.

[BobABQ]

A would love to see a Dragonfly with a premium blade steel and a nice set of blue g10 handle scales.

[knivesandbooks]

K390 and CRS XHP wharnie Delica.

:cool: :cool: :cool:
Yes

[Freediver]

Larger batches for popular sprint runs.

[Wartstein]

Fourth post here, since every day another thing I´d like to see from Spyderco comes to my mind..

An affordable, lightweight fixed blade, featuring a little longer edge than the Enuff has: Just half an inch to one inch more would be ok; FRN would be ok; VG 10 and a drop in price or keep the current price and make it S30 V in return.

[BobABQ]

I would love to see a sprint run of the Lil'Native with blurple handle scales, a backpack and to be honest I am very happy with s30v blade steel.
Compression lock would be ok with me too.

What about the Moran fixed blades?
