Lots of great responses but here are my two

1) As others have said, I'd like to see a paramilitary 2 with a titanium scale compression lock, similar to the ATR. And I think it would be even better if the opposite scale was G10 or CF. Blade steel could be S90 or CTS-XHP or CPM-M4, etc.

2) Manbug or Ladybug given the G10 handle w/ scales treatment along with a FFG in some flavor of powdered steel.

Bonus = Military with new lock type, either compression or Caged Ball Bearing Lock. :D

I've really developed an appreciation for the PPT as is...

...but would love to see a slimmer/lighter iteration using Spyderco's more common G10 or CF scales, lighter backspacer, and slightly slimmer skeletonized liners.

I'm still kicking myself for having missed out on the home maker and the Yin/Yang set. Would love to get another stab at some :spyder: kitchen knives.

For some reason, I think a C01 Worker with the new "Nishijin" CF would be a cool variant (likely a non-starter becuase of re-tooling costs).

I think a C27 Jess Horn variant, still with a natural handle material, would be very nice too.

Here's another vote for a Titanium scaled Ladybug...maybe ZDP or S90V blade. I am thrilled about the new ZDP flatground and H1 Hawkbill ladybugs. I am hoping for a sprint in Ti. That would be my dream cigar cutter!!

Titanium scaled native with the new flat ground S35V blade would be another awesome knife.

Damascus Persian1.
CF Persian2 (but not that rough CF spyderco seems so found of).
Pretty much CF anything.
Some high gloss (blue, green, orange, brown) anodized handles (especially in a large Lum Chinese folder)

Oh, and every knife with rough surface handles should have a high polished area where the handle contacts the clip, to save your pants.

Para 2 w/ Ti framelock and G-10 or CF opposite scale. S90v, M4, XHP, or just S30V for steel.

Para 2 w/ orange G-10.

Edit: I meant Ti (compression) framelock like the USA made ATR, not like a RIL.
On order: Maxamet Native 5
Current pocket hog: S90V Para2
Next up: Something Blurple

Something I didn't see earlier that I would REALLY like:
a gentleman's military. Maybe anodized green or blue handles, maybe some wood or stone involved. Would never happen, but I'd love it.

I always thought the Scorpius should receive the G-10 re-tooling like the Poliwog did. The difference in weight and thickness (potentially) would benefit that model in my opinion. I would go for a G-10 Scorpius variant.
