:confused: I honestly can't remember ever using two hands to close my pacific salt. Often I've got a rod or fish in the other hand. That's actually one of the things I love about the knife is the ease and security of one handed opening and closing. When my hands are wet and slippery I can (one hand) close a back lock much more securely (meaning with less chance of it slipping from my hand) than say a compression lock.

Where do I join this club? I'd love to see more carbon steel offerings. I love my superblue, and I'm saving up for an Air because nobody got one for me for my birthday.

I'd love a G10 Military in M4 for sure...a PPT sounds good too!!

I'd like of like to see the Kiwi done in a higher end steel too.

A G-10 Military with M4 would be great!

PM2 with M4.

Sal, we know you're listening in the bushes.

heres an of what phil wilsons bird and trout knives look like

Was there supposed to be a link or a picture there Holland? Or is the knife in your signature line a Phil Wilson Bird and Trout?

I'd like to see a regular production Millie in M4, with foliage green, ranger green, or olive drab, or even coyote scales.

I would love to see a Manix2-XL, another regular Manix2, or a Yojimbo2 in M4 as well.

I would probably not be able to resist a Szabo with an M4 blade... but I'd get more use out of one of the above.

As for the Caly, are there any Japanese-made Spydies with American-made steel?

I have yet to try M4 but keep hearing about it and it appears to be amazing. PM2, Native, Caly, etc., I would be all over it.

I'm also very interested

I like the bird and trout design a lot better than all his other designs

I would HIGHLY suggest looking into a Native. Any well-designed backlock, especially one with a choil, can be closed and opened with one hand.

That's a beauty. Do we know which steel will be used?

I had one and sold it. One of the s110v versions. I just can't get used to them. Trust me, I'd love to have a dragonfly or something similar for light tasks or when surrounded by sheeple. I'm just too used to frame locks, primarily, and liner locks. I can manipulate both of those types like nobody's business, but I'm clumsy with the lock back.

We don't I think I read somewhere that the next phil Wilson collaboration would again be s90v. But I really hope they consider M4 as it would be a brilliant change and suit the knife well I think

Given my shoddy financial standing, I'd like to have CPM-M4 (or one of its analogues) combined with an FRN handle. Maybe the new light weight Native would do?

I have a limited sprint run Military in M-4. :) :) :)

One of my all time favorite knives. I'd like to see M-4 become the "standard" for the Military. :spyder: :spyder:

I have a Mule Team in M-4 as well. A "Loveless classic drop point hunter" :) in M-4, four to five inch blade, with Rosewood scales would really be "da bomb, baby."

Yup. Everyone wants a PM2 in M4. Spyderco should build one! (or 1200)

TedP

I would definitely be in.

I own a Bradley and would love other offerings in M4. PM 2 seems to be on everyone's mind but I would take just about anything. How about a dragonfly 2?
