3 Classics You Want To See As SPRINT RUNS

[steelcity16]

1. OG Backlock C95 Manix with Dino Jimping - in CPM 3V (delta heat treat) and Matte OD Green Micarta

2. Jester as a Salt in GITD FRN with FFG LC200N blade

3. Spyderhawk as a Salt in FFG SE LC200N with super bright Neon Yellow, Orange or Pink FRN to avoid getting lost in the grass

We have lost quite a few classic designer/knifemakers these past few years that I am feeling a bit nostalgic. How about a homage sprint run series?
Goddard - I prefer mini, but okay with baby
Centofante - thinking vesuvius!!
Jess Horn or Tim Wegner to round out the trio

[Evil D]

Ayoob in SE, any steel
Calypso in SE, any steel
Ulize in SE, any steel (not quite classic yet but close enough)

As most of you know I'm still a very big fan of many of Spyderco's older models. Still own and use some of them too. I'm also still on record as saying that their Golden era was a time when virtually everything we see today was spawned from many models from what I affectionately call The GOLDEN Era Of SPYDERS ( 1998-2004).

It was in that time slot that most of my very favorite old school Spyders emerged. Now all of us have been intrigue with many of the Sprint Runs we have seem come to pass in the past 10 years or so. There are so many old school models I would love to see return with newer/better handle materials and newer/better blade steels.

So for all of you who are thinking on the same lines as I am let's all list 3 past Spyderco models you would like to see resurrected in an upcoming Sprint Run. Also you might add which handle material you would prefer and which blade steel you think would bring that model into the year 2020.

My three are
(1) C-60 Ayoob in K390 or M390 with a Carbon Fiber or G-10 handle

(2) Fixed blade TEMPERANCE 1 in ( SE & PE) in the Salt Series with LC200N

(3) JD Smith in SE & PE with 4V with either a Carbon Fiber or original Micarta handle. ( G-10 would work too)

Another Delica run of Super Blue or v toku?

- Lil' Native BL in M390/20CV with smurf blue G10
- Calypso Jr. in LC200N
- Para 3 in left hand version - SPY27 preferably

[Dazen]

GB Air- LSCF/M4
Dodo- 20CV/Peel-Ply CF
UKPK- 52100/Peel-Ply CF or S90V/CF

[Sumdumguy]

GB Air- LSCF/M4

It would have to be in LC200N. The old one was the silver lining, the new one is the ominous storm!

:D

[TomAiello]

I'd buy an Air in LC200N. And an Ayoob Sprint.

I'd also like to see a Maxamet UKPK. But I'd prefer regular production. :)

[vaisforlovers]

Jester Salt, yellow salt frn, H1 serrated

Phoenix , VG10, with polished black micarta handles

Dyad Salt, H1 Serrated, LC200N plain

[JD Spydo]

Ulize
Massad Ayoob
SuperHawk

All in 4V, Rex45, K390 or CruWear -- SE & PE

Hey "JMM I love your picks >> however wouldn't you like to see the SUPERhAWK offered in full SE the next time around? Actually I would like to see all 3 of your picks offered in PE & SE both. I hope Spyderco notices that the C-60 Massad Ayoob model truly has a strong following even to this day :cool:

[JD Spydo]

GB Air- LSCF/M4
Dodo- 20CV/Peel-Ply CF
UKPK- 52100/Peel-Ply CF or S90V/CF

Oh Yeah!! The Dodo with a Supersteel blade>> now what handle do we want on that bad boy??? :cool:

[GarageBoy]

C15 terzuola
Lum Tanto
Microdyad

[JD Spydo]

Ayoob in SE, any steel
Calypso in SE, any steel
Ulize in SE, any steel (not quite classic yet but close enough)

David I wish you were close by>> I could give you a really brisk "HIGH FIVE" on all 3 of those picks. RIGHT ON!!! :cool:

OK Spyderco are you all starting to notice the love for the C-60 Ayoob>> It MUST COME BACK AT SOME POINT. We won't shut up until it does :D

[JD Spydo]

C15 terzuola
Lum Tanto
Microdyad

I'm wondering what blade steel would be ideal on the LUM TANTO. The two Lum Tanto folders I have are ATS-55 & VG-10. I'm thinking that 3V or XHP might be ideal?

[JMM]

Ulize
Massad Ayoob
SuperHawk

All in 4V, Rex45, K390 or CruWear -- SE & PE

Hey "JMM I love your picks >> however wouldn't you like to see the SUPERhAWK offered in full SE the next time around? Actually I would like to see all 3 of your picks offered in PE & SE both.

YES! That's what I was saying, all three of those models, in any one (or more) of the four tool steels listed, made in both PE & SE :D

Cheers,

John

[Notsurewhy]

Dodo in cruwear and green patterned g10 like the 2013 forum knife

Dyad with SE h1 and PE lc200n in yellow frn just makes too much sense

Persian large or small with bolsters, polished white or burgundy micarta and vanax

[Baron Mind]

1) Slycz Bowie

2) TUF

3) Equilibrium in s90v and titanium

[kennethsime]

If I had to pick a folder, I wouldn't mind a rookie 5 "updated" like the Police 5 with an FFG K390 blade and a 50/50 choil. I'm happy with Foliage green.

But really, I feel like I've missed out on some really awesome Spyderco fixed blades.

I would love a sprint run of the Hossom knives, any and all of them. OD Green Canvas Micarta. 3v? 4v? Cruwear? Any of the higher-end Tool Steels and I'm happy.

I would also be super into a Temperance 2 in any of the tool steels

I'm very much looking forward to the Crucarta Proficient sprint.

[Sumdumguy]

How about a Micro Dyad in solid LC200N, with a mammoth tooth inlay?

The market might be a bit limited though...

Let's see, there's me... and maybe a few other crazies.
:p

Calypso
Temperance 2 in tool steel - but it would be so expensive
