Which Golden models for 2010 forum knife poll?

[npueppke]

How about using some other new Carpenter steel?

no slipits please. I have no need for a non locking knife.

+1

G10 UKPK but with a different color of G10. Maybe blue....

I'd even be cool with a FRN UKPK but with the CPM-S30V blade instead of the GIN-1.

Either way with a UKPK you could have the engraving or laser etching down the backspring on the back of the knife. That would look sweet.

I have to agree that slipits are not for me but if that is what the majority wants then so be it. If those four knives are the choices then the Manix is it.

But thinking about it further, a forum knife is probably the least used knife in most peoples collections, last years native doesn't see much action out of all my knives, so a slipit wouldn't be too bad.

[D1omedes]

I'm cool with either the FRN UKPK or the FRN Manix 2. I'd just like to have a FFG blade on the forum knife.

Why so many restrictions?
Cant they just do what they want?

THIS!

Awesome idea to get the backspring engraved!

If it has to be a Golden produced knife and these are the choices then I'm going to have to vote for none of the above.
IMHO the forum knife should be a "gift" to the loyalists-something that cannot be had in normal production. As such I would like to see a mini-Persian or a jester or possibly dodo.
Just my 2 cents.

I like the idea of blue G10 or even blue FRN - something bright and cheerful. Not sure about the S30V blade though - I think that's one reason the G10 UKPKs are so expensive - and it looks like GIN1 is out and being replaced by CTS-BD1 anyway so I voted for a FFG leaf-blade CTS-BD1 UKPK because it'd be the first SLIPIT in that metal and I'd like to try it out over here as a real user. The engraving down the spine is a superb idea ... I never like writing on the face of a blade - which is why I love the simplicity of the bug design and putting the writing on the tang. :)

My choice would not be a Golden knife or even one that's been released yet. Give me a Sage III forum knife. :eek:

[Redeye]

As a new member I'd be grateful to get the opportunity to buy any Spyderco Forum Knife, but if I were to choose my ideal model it would be some kind of UKPK variant.

Yellow UKPK FRN with wharnie blade, PE - that sounds interesting to me too.

[bammann45]

I am personally not interested in non-locking knives -- I would vote for a manix 2 variant.

[Scottie3000]

Manix 2 would be my first choice (Maybe FFG 154cm and skeletonized liners) followed by FRN UKPK.

I like this idea too.
I would LOVE to have a ZDP-189 FFG Manix with some interesting scale color!

Agree, no slipjoints, please!

[RevDevil]

Agree, no slipjoints, please!

x2 agreed whole heartedly

[SUDS]

I would like to see a vg10 or 154cm manix2 whichever is cheaper with a different colored g10 like dark blue, brown or yellow. Im not much one for slipjoint but if it is a slipjoint a different colored g10 would be cool.

Any love for the DKPK? It's definitely unique.

I like it, in theory, but it is just like a UKPK with the OHO disabled ... if they went for a city-friendly SLIPIT then I'd like to see the Chicago made into a SLIPIT :)
