I am not interested in the steel much either as long as it has at least the corrosion resistance of VG10. So, Magnacut would work for me.

I have both and carry the blue one regularly at the office, they’re basically akin to a Dragonfly in size. I’d post pics if Imgur would properly provide the links… A new sprint run would look identical to the blue one but with a different color scale and blade steel (?). It wouldn’t be a true “sprint” if the blade was switched to a Wharncliffe, so I highly doubt Spyderco would consider that unless the designer Chad Los Banos really pushed for it. Cheers, Radioactive
I think Chad burned his bridges with Spyderco when he hooked up with Boker.

imgur is old news. there's better image hosts, like postimage. either way you can provide links to any image by long pressing it or right clicking it, opening it in a new tab, then copy and paste the URL to the forum wuth img code brackets.
May you find peace in this life and the next.

Thanks vivi. I’ve managed to post hundreds of pics on here through Imgur on my iPhone but the app is no longer giving me .jpg-based image links to post here using the [img] brackets.

try forcing desktop site.

imgur started out good but these days they're a liberal social media site infested with ads masquerading as an image host.

imgbb, imgchest, postimage, catbox.moe .....lots of more old school style image hosts out there that aren't so hellbent on keeping you from simply direct linking to your images.

imgur has a lot of anti-user code to try to force people to link to their homepage instead of directly to the uploaded image.
May you find peace in this life and the next.

I wonder if Chad is still lurking these halls? I’d be in for one.
