If we're just fantasizing...
I'd like a CBBL or compression lock Chief with denim micarta and cryoed/low-tempered K490 at 64+ hrc
Let's keep the forum knife engraving small.

I'd be excited for a SE forum knife as well. It's iconic spyderco, so makes sense to me.

That makes at least three of us... :rolleyes:
But honestly, as said in my above linked post: I think a forum knife would even be an opportunity to offer people to experience SE, who otherwise never would - and I am totally convinced, if the serrations are anything like on the Endela, this would be a positive and maybe surprising experience for most...

Re: Forum Knife 2020 - No Holds Barred!!!
Well then...
SE Caribbean sheepsfoot, with scales as thick and contoured as the Shaman, but in bidirectional FRN like the D'Allara 2, in maybe a charcoal gray color. I'd also be ok with rough burgundy micarta scales in the same thickness and contouring.
All SE all the time since 2017

Re: Forum Knife 2020 - No Holds Barred!!!
Now that we´re talking "serrated" and the Chaparral was mentioned several times already:
What about the first serrated Chaparral for a forum knife (I would not say no to Micarta either... :rolleyes: ) ?
Serrations in that slicey 2mm stock blade must be amazing...

A competition chopper :D
10 inch blade of CPM 4V, FFG, 0.4 mm behind the edge, 6 mm spine, tapered tang, micarta scales.
Usefulness? Zero. Cool factor? Over 9000!

Re: Forum Knife 2020 - No Holds Barred!!!
For 2020, I'd like a throwback model in a throwback steel. Walker, Jess Horn, Salsa, Zowada, or Navigator in CPM-154. Micarta preferred in any color.

Re: Forum Knife 2020 - No Holds Barred!!!
Military 2 with a comp lock. K390, M390, or something else to knock my socks off. Green Canvas Micarta scales.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

Re: Forum Knife 2020 - No Holds Barred!!!
Manix 2 with blue denim colored ribbed micarta scales...in any high end steel, as long as it’s stainless.
Re: Forum Knife 2020 - No Holds Barred!!!
Next idea: Make the very first batch of the Caly 3.5 LW the 2020 forum knife by giving it a special handle color or whatever ...

Assuming the forum branding is close enough to my taste, would buy either of these. :spyder: :cool:

Re: Forum Knife 2020 - No Holds Barred!!!
No holds barred, eh? In that case, I’d go with a Golden-made C50 Centofante (PE or SE), in FFG LC200N or CPM 154, stonewashed blade, carbon fiber or canvas Micarta scales with same material backspacer, Liner Lock with safety back-up (like the original), recessed Ti liners, and an updated scale medallion that includes the year “2020” and words “Forum Knife.”
My other choice would be a full SE Salt Cricket in LC200N and FRN. Who wouldn’t love to see the Cricket in FRN again? And as a Salt? :)

Competition chopper? This knife sounds very cool though. But what is the competition, do cooks get together and see who can chop
their way fastest through a bag of onions?
