The Canis in this steel would be greatly appreciated. With Crucible gone this is one of the knives I fear may get discontinued.

I'm not sure there's a folding knife I wouldn't want stainless K390 on. The Manix 2 and Native Chief would be my first picks I guess, if I could choose anything.

Manix 2 LW of course.

But for the most important question... what color will the handles be? MangnaCut got yellow, would MagnaMax look good in a grey?
I would love to see the Magnamax knives use the new Salt G10 pattern, but in different colors. Ideal, for me, would be earth brown on the top layer and a forest green on the bottom layer (similar to the Knifeworks exclusive green).

Or maybe black top layer and red bottom layer, inverse of the Crucible exclusive PM2

I would also be totally ok with bringing back Foliage Green.

I would really like this color, so much so; I would be buying more knives not only for the new steel, but also because of the color... I do think it's high time for a nice shade of green.

Is Maxamet not grey already?
I think Maxamet might be on its way out. :thinking
Bummer. And here i was hoping for a Manix g10 version still. :neutral
Perhaps i need to buy a LW afterall and Customize it in CF then. :thinking

I vote they bring back the old ZDP-189 blue. Very nice dark Navy blue color and it seems like ZDP moved over to British Racing Green.

Oh my. This would be amazing.

I think Spyderco should go all out and do dark matter fat carbon with MagnaMax.

Hey Synov,

We generally try to make what you want?

sal
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The entire "business chain" from; raw materials, invention, design, manufacturing, marketing, selling, distributing, shipping, warrantees, insurance, credit, etc. ALL EXISTS to service the ELU (End Line User). Remove the ELU from the equation and the entire business chain falls like a house of cards. We all work for you!

This in a Sage 5 or Sage 6 since they don’t come in K390. Or a chaparral LW/salt?

The Manix 2 and Millie are a no brainer. I would also love to see the GB2 in this steel, but please keep it as a hollow grind. Caly 3.5 would also be a good candidate.

Bow River would be good. I'll tack on the Steet Beat since we're going fixed.
