Plain FRN delica in Cowry ( Y i believe is still in production?) or R2. Lets keep time for engineering & testing down. Costs for ELU down where possible. These steels are expensive enough without adding on Ti, Carbon fibre, etc.
If it is a golden model the Calypso or caly 3 in 20-CV would be nice, or CPM M4. Once again leave standard wherever possible. Joe

That idea is a great one Sal. I'll pre buy my one or two each run. Joe

Dodos can be still had quite readily in the secodary market, but a full flat Persian, now that would be a Sprint worth sprinting for....even with a pulled groin muscle! :D With Damascus, well I'd sprint barefoot on the Aussie outback in January for that one!
The Mas Ayoob with linered peel ply CF or plain ol' G-10 would be another goodie...although the Persian Full Flat is still tops. :cool:
The ZDP Caly3 is in the works (should have them very shortly) but the plan wasn't a sprint. They were planned for continued limited production. Of course if they don't sell well and are disco'd, then it would have been the same as "sprint" in terms of numbers made.
I would love to see a sprint of the Dodo in an even better supersteel. It is my favorite work knife for some tasks, but my user is getting a tad short from having the tip reground every time I manage to trash it :o
The C60 Ayoob in G-10 or PPCF gets another vote from me.
And just for giggles, how about a full flat MeerKat? :D
I don't believe in safe queens, only in pre-need replacements.
deacon's persian idea sounds real nice. how 'bout a rookie or d-fly with some coloured micarta or coloured g-10 w/ liners.....and hey i'm always up for carbon fiber, but that calypso jr. zdp-189 in cf will do me later.
thanks for even caring sal! :)
