Now that Spyderco has refined the geometry of their backlock, I can see the next Chinook getting a refined super backlock. It may be similar to the proposed updates to the backlock Manix.

Chinook does not need refined backlock geometry. It is old-school, thats why i love it so much. Now such knifes nobody does..... Not modern lightweight and tricky geometry, but weight, more thick steel and power. Not quiet spyder-click, but a loud sound. As a Gates of a **** slams....Kadeeeemz!!!! Chinook...

Chinook-I, Carbon Fiber, and CTS-XHP - not a knife, but a dream.... :)

My Wishes And Prayers Answered -- Sal and Eric, I want to be among the first to THANK and CONGRATULATE You with leading the Spyderco Chinook Legend into the Highly Anticipated Next Chapter.

Thanks for entertaining the topic over the chats we've had during a couple of my earlier SFO visits. This move forward with the IV blows the mind with possibilities. Popular amongst a long, loyal following I seem to find agree in favoring considerations as well hearkening back to beefier, more broadly hollowground, swedged, and aggressively jimped blade of extremely high grade performance all new alloy with full liners and at the very Least thick slab G-10 scales --
-- Highly advanced design, newly tangential Modified Bowie incarnation I have always adored -- from the heart and fierce soul of this VG-10 Proto -- now progressing a quantum leap to the present along with the best attributes considered from all 3 versions so far -- And MORE FOR THE FOUR!! :D

This all will be a timely and bold answer to burgeoning market demand for another heavier Battletank Class of an MBC rated, Massively Backlocked SD Thoroughbred Monster among folders --
CHINOOK v4.0. :cool: :cool: :D

- SB / BRUCE

I would say this is a good knife to try cpm3v in. Or at least I can hope.

I know there's lots of excitement over the potential of high-carbide steel in a 'tough' folder, but I'd like to see what Mastiff suggested--something that will hold a wicked-fine slicing edge. Maybe I'm crazy for preferring them, but I think this (and the Yojimbo) is the place low-carbide steels really make sense. If you want a utility knife for cardboard, it wouldn't work; for MBC I think you could get some really compelling results.

Very exciting news. I just hope it is more of a true bowie style blade along the lines of the original one.

ive recently found a love for the chinook and a couple requests. the old chinook 1 grind was amazing, make a play off that. Not FFG. CTS-XHP would be amazing. any steel will sell, but really try to go back to the roots of the chinook and you will have a winner

You know... I'd pay good money to see Spyderco's project list one of these days :p .

Also, add another +1 to the original grind :)
