Think tank : what would YOU look for?

[Stryke]

4 inch Blade version of the Native , maybe with Stainless Bolsters and Wood Inlays :eek: :cool:

[walderdackel]

Large Calypso is the way to go :D

But the Rookie...yum!

a 204MF sharpmaker base in a beige or tan FRN color to improve visualizing the spine of the blade while sharpening (mebbe even a Clear Lucite plastic base would work).....more H-1 models (esp. a blunt-tipped lightweight H-1 neck knife for whitewater/river use), more CLB, Bob Lum, and Schemmp designs and , more little big knives with ambidextrous use.... :rolleyes:

I guess Zac is right regarding the OTF autos. I don't know if Spyderco can make a better OTF than MT, but even if they do, the hole would be pointless - it no longer would be a Spyderco.
Now speaking of what I'd like to see in the new Spyderco offer, the answer is... I don't know. :o My needs have already been covered by their older models :) I've seen they have the tendency of enlarging the hole, a thing I'm not quite comfortable with, because of the oversized hump associated with this. I understand the advantages of a 14 mm hole in a Salsa or Military blade, but I can do just fine with my Calypso jr. and its 11 mm hole.

I'd like to see a reintroduction of the full-sized Calypso.

Halleluia! THE words have been spoken! :eek:

And pls. CF + ZDP 189 :D

I would love to see a new collaboration with Bob Lum or Bob Terzuola.

Or…. A first collaboration with Kevin Wilkins :D

Allen good to see your moniker on a new thread.…

And Simona – where have you been hanging out? No matter, its really nice to see you here again. :D :D :D

I'd like to see another UK knife, basically a slightly smaller slipjoint/rare-earth magnet yojimbo with a really deep choil. Low ride clip too.

The yojimbo design is ideal for the UK, it looks like a folding stanley knife. The UKPK looks too much like a tactical folder.

I'm going to try and make up a picture :p
EDIT: A little bit like this...

Spyder edge options on more knives. Black bladed Military and Manix/Mini Manix are some that come to mind.

Last year I would have said 'more fixed blades', and they are in the pipeline. Looking over concept models and prototypes that keep coming up, it's hard for me to think of something that hasn't been considered yet. Maybe an all-out tough folder, oh wait that would be the Tuff-concept model. Or a Li'l Temp II, oh no that'll also being considered. :p
