Over the years, ending in the near future with the Cruwear millie Spyderco has made everything I really could ask for from a production company. The various Super blue sprints are ones I wanted for years. Likewise the Cruwear millie. I had wished for a full size, strong, slicer cutter in Cruwear. The Millie fits the bill perfectly. They have made sprints in BG42 ( millie), S90V ( various, especially Millie and P2), CPM M4 ( Millie and Bradley), ZDP ( jess horns and Caly Jr's especially, though the stretch is a favorite of mine in ZDP).
They even took out the tool steels and made an O-1 fixed blade.
A 3V large, heavy duty folder,
The whole mule team program. I have every one so far and plan to continue as long as possible.
I can keep going. I don't feel entitled to ask for more than they have already done. If I never was able to buy another knife and lived two hundred more years I'd be just fine. :) Naturally I'll have to explore every new steel, and the folders I like and can afford as they come out. They just seem to get better and better even though they had several perfect ones for me already.
Thank you Sal and the Spyderco team

Thank you for the reply the gent I brought it from said the same .GoodEyeSniper wrote:Military with Titanium framelock, g10 scale on the non lock side, and a CPM M4 blade.
On most backlocks the area of the tang right before the sharpened edge is what stops it. Often called the "kick" I think? Granted, I've never held a Matriarch.
Not sure on the scale swapping.
But wasn't entirely sure :) .

I mocked up a sprint I'd love to see a while back: CF large Persian with bolsters and a Damascus blade. I like the CF used on the Taiwan knives, but think Lightning Strike with textured copper bosters would be pretty sweet as well.

I'd also be game for a Super-Blue Dialex Junior, buffed red G-10 Kris (to match the Persian sprint), or heat anodized fluted Ti Military in M4.

Manix 2 with the following specs:
All jimping removed
CTS 204P (CTS XHP a close second) with stonewashed finish
G-10 handles of a slightly darker blue than the Sage 3
Make it linerless construction and thicken the G-10 scales so overall thickness remains the same
Change it to a wire clip to accommodate linerless construction
Also add a G-10 backspacer to close the construction

A fluted Ti Military with a damascus blade.
I really, really need this just because.
