I'm having a hard time thinking of sprints I'd like that don't involve modifying the knife design, but how about a Titanium delica? FFG, please.

I'd also go for a TI Drogonfly. That would be pretty much awesome! Just replace the scales and liners of a G10 dragonfly with titanium.

a carbon fiber Delica4 with the old school CF clip connected to a one sided liner.

again though i think they should make an Endura for this too, Tonydahose needs this, or make some kind of anniversary Spyderco that is an Endura. it is due.

Lava Hawkbill or Wharnie. Anything with a nice sharp tip. There's gotta be room in that handle!!

Manix 2 in CPM-M4. Just ask yourself "WWRD?" (what would Rambo do?)

First choice would be an Ed Schempp C83 Persian with an Odin's Eye Damasteel blade, ivory micarta scales, and brushed stainless bolsters, like those on the original. Omit the Boye dent and clip.

Second choice would be this...

Kiwi with modified FFG blade of Devin Thomas Turkish Twist stainless damascus and bark mammoth ivory scales.

I did a quick search for discussion related to a Persian sprint, and it seems like there has been some major interest dating back to 2008. Sal appears to repeatedly mention the possibility several times too.

Anyone know anything new concerning a Persian sprint run? It seems like a lot of people would like one from my research!

Police or Endura G10 and Super blue steel at RC 61-62
Millie in 52100 or PD#1, 3V or similar non stainless tool steel.

For a fixed blade, I'd love to see the FB04 Fred Perrin revamped with a Street Beat-style micarta handle

For a folder, I'll second the votes for the Shabaria.

The ultimate cigar cutter. Ladybug, Titanium scales, premium steel, (ZDP, S90V, or even S30V) Flat grind. Some type of machining on the scales for grip and asthetics....

FFG Carbon Fiber Delica4 with low ride wire clip and a Michael Walker liner lock instead of the lockback. I love the delica 4's blade shape and handle shape and i don't mind a lockback but a CF liner lock would be outstanding.

Barong in ZDP-189 (with additional 1/4" of edge if that doesn't violate the thread ground rules) and 1/4" rounded black/green micarta scales. No clip, include a clipped leather sheath.
