Bodacious would be great!

How about a Military? Liner lock preferably 👍

I went with Kapara as it's my second favourite Spydie. If the Military 2 was on the list that would get my vote. And the Bodacious would be my third choice

I voted for the Kapara, too, because I also super love that design and am relatively unsatisfied with the Taichung S30V.

But to be clear, if Military 2 had been on the list of options I would have clicked it without even reading the rest of the list!

No more folders in prone to corrosion steels for me. I would go with a fixie, maybe the drop point Moran.
This is a spectacular idea!

You're right, that would be my pick, too. Love the UKPKs and the K390 handle color would suit it well.

Easily the Bodacious. I love the design, but I’m waiting for something other than S30V. Not because I don’t like it, I just already have too many. K390 would be an immediate buy. Honestly, so would M4, 15V, 4V, MagnaCut, CruWear, SPY 27…

Any style fixed blade...
You should try the enuff 2. For me the best performing Spyderco platform. Maybe one day we could have it in many steel... Magnacut, 15v...

All of them.

I voted Bodacious. Sad GB2 wasn't on the list. Also Military2 (obviously).

Still dreaming of a Sage2 rerelease in 10v(K390).

FWIW, M4 is my soul mate, but K390 is my new flame. I have not used anything I enjoy using and sharpening more.

I voted Chaparral but what I’d like even more is a Jumpmaster 2 in it with full DLC (including down the full tang). I have an SE P4 in K390 and it is brilliant except it’s now got horrendous lock rock after I used it to judiciously butcher a 12ft Ficus Lyrata sapling. It stayed sharp for hundreds of hacking cuts.

That would be great, I do prefer the GB2 a bit more but would be great to have a hollow ground K390 blade.

From the list the Manix 2!
These were my feelings. I voted Manix 2, but I would prefer these over the Manix

GB1 (hollow)
Caly 3.5 (regular or lw ;) )
Military 2
Something else wharncliffe, maybe a PM2 wharnie.

A hollow ground K390!
Has it been done?
Could it be done?
When do we get one? :winking-tongue
