The Rex-121 Sage I was already looking forward to....

Then I saw THE POLICE!

Very exciting to have another Police4 variant.

A TiCN coated Police is really cool to see.

Excited for the Rex 121 and return of burnt orange.

Yes, I do like too that this great handle color is making a comeback! (Though REX 121 is not really for me, would rather see more REX 45)

More thoughts on the new Reveal:

- Chaparral Slipit: Great that one of the best folders ever gets more variants! Obviously the non locking version has to miss the uber-amazing backlock . but other than that it brings all the great Chap features to those who don´t need or want a lock!

- Lack of SE: Sad to see the trend of only PE versions continuing. I completely get it from a sales point of view (SE appearantly did not sell as well as hoped for example in the K390 Spydies), but whenever a new Manix LW version comes out I hope that we will FINALLY see an SE variant of this model...

- Frame lock Tenacious: Very cool, love this model for its ergos and long cutting edge in a compact handle.
I am afraid though that "just" 8CR steel will not exactly help its sales...

- PD1 sprints: Not my favorite color scheme I guess, but still very cool!!
If I wasn´t that much into SE these days and had not already PE Enduras in VG10 and HAP40, I´d definitely try to snag an Endura!

The K390 Stretch XL is an instant buy. I will make a sturdy body for it, or bladeswap into my Cruwear handle

Some Carpenter steel is good to see too, I will buy a PD#1 knife, dunno which one (hope i wont end up with a gajillion of stretch XLs )

Oh wow so the REX 121 Sages going to be standard production? Also, very cool to see all the new SPY27 models. Seki line in PD#1 looks great too.

This reveal is really cool! I wanna grab the Stretch and Dfly Micro Melt.

I have to say that I’m disappointed, and surprised, by the Techno 3. It looks way too much like the ZT 0456 for my tastes.

Surprising reveal. Looking at the two Stretch XLs and wondering which one to get.

I’m glad the Police 4 is getting some love. I’m interested in that, the temperance, and the k390 stretch xl

I think it's time to add a Techno to my collection

As much as I like the Sages I'm not sure I need another burnt orange knife or another Sage 5 LW or G10. We'll see how I feel when they become available

See, I'd like the Police more if it wasn't coated, but I get why. Is this the first Police 4 LW sprint?

I was really hoping to see the HP Delica. One day...

Oh yeah, totally forgot to me tion the chappy slipit. Very much looking forward to it.

Do I want the Sage 5’s in LW or g10??

Depending on the price point I do think I want one. I have a Para 3 and Native 5 in Maxamet and love the steel. I can only assume this is even better. I am leaning LW on this one, just seems perfect for this type of know and has a great look to it.

The K390 Stretch 2 XL seems like a ton of awesome knife for the money.

I need to know more about PD#1 and the durability of the coating since it’s not DLC but the new family looks pretty cool.

I was also hoping to see more 15v, like a Manix LW, but the is always the next reveal.

Some cool new variants for sure. Definitely going to scoop up the R.I.L. Tenacious. However I was really hoping for a completely new model or two, not just variants of previous designs.

Automatic buy: K390 Stretch 2 XL.

Semi-Automatic buy: PD#1 Stretch 2 XL, Techno 3. Price-dependent.

Possible buy: Temperance sprint.

I've seen a few people say this, and I do see the ZT'ness of it. But remember its a production model of a knife designed by Marcin Slysz, so I guess you'll have to talk to him about it...

My only gripe that I've seen echoed is the 8Cr on the Tenacious. For the presumed higher price point that comes with full titanium it'd be nice to even have a steel of yesteryear like s30v, let alone any of the current heavy hitters currently in production across the industry.

Where’s the 15v ??

Where would one pre-order any of them?

I'm looking forward to checking out the VG Xeos Mule. I always love highly corrosion resistant steels.

The fixed blade Temperance in CPM CruWear is a must get. And the price point being listed on various sites is super do-able. Got to love affordable sprint runs. And the Stretch 2 XL in CTS-PD#1 (Cru-Wear) yup I’m going to get in trouble with the wife again.

Thank you Spyderco for the affordable Cru-Wear love it.
