There's been a lot of discussion about this model already. The design is done, the sheath has been chosen and we're moving forward. No ETA yet, but thought you might enjoy some pics.

I was on Facebook and saw the announcement about the Warrior. I came on here and was just about to mention why it isn't announced here (or on Twitter) yet and see Kristi just post it up. :D
It sure is wicked. I would buy one if not for the fact that it's out of my price range.

I was a big fan of the old Al Mar & REKAT Warrior/Hobbits and this Spyderco version will be great. I handled one at BLADE and was very impressed with it. Definite improvements with handle ergonomics and the skullcrusher pommel. The serrations add more utility than the original version's saw type projections for trapping.
I have fond memories of my 1st field problem in the Army carrying my Al Mar Warrior - and getting made fun of for it. It's not going to be cheap, but I'll find a way.

This one I have to have. I'll be ready if a giant squid attacks my boat or civilization ends. (though to be totally prepared for the latter I'll need to stock up on pellets for my .20 caliber Blue Streak)
Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

I won't announce it on Twitter until it's actually released. That is a ways out. There is a long lead time with the H1 used for the Warrior (thicker).mystikessence wrote:I was on Facebook and saw the announcement about the Warrior.

Yes, there is a pocket on the outside of the sheath. A small flashlight could fit there easily.tonydahose wrote:i really haven't been following the talk about this one...i clicked on the first pic and literally out loud said HOLY S^&T..i will be getting one even though i never carry fixed blades on me...i guess for that just in case apocalypse that might one day come, it would be a good back up for my gun :D ...is there a small pocket on the outside of the sheath? i couldnt tell in the pics..it would be a great place for a sharpening stone or a millie for those little tasks :D

In addition to being incredibly cool, this looks like an almost perfect fixed blade. It will slice, stab and skin and the slightly recurved SE is perfect for cutting rope, among other things; a "combo" blade with absolutely no compromise. I live on the ocean, so H-1 is excellent. As long as it fits the hand as well as it appears to, I can't think of anything that would make this a better all around knife.
I can't wait to check this out at the Blade show in Portland.
