With a compression lock, I think this would quickly become one of the best in Spyderco's lineup. Minimally, I think it would be a big seller.

Very nice looking drawings Ostap. And welcome to the Spyderco forum.

If I may offer one thing I see right off that needs some rethinking. Your stop pin is really really small. Im guessing around 2mm. I would do my best to fit a larger stop pin. I would shoot for something around the 3.5mm mark.

Nice drawings.

One thing that I would consider changing is the way the butt end of the handle comes to such a sharp point. I think that might prove to be uncomfortable in the pocket and maybe hand. Perhaps this is why most of the Spyderco designs have somewhat more rounded ends.

I'm not sure the screw for the clip wouldn't make it impossible for No. 2 to have that blade length. But it sure looks cool.

That one is very nice, I like the negative blade angle by contouring the handle.

A couple things suggest to me that you don't understand how the compression lock works, but we can let that slide. :)

The neck knife... is that large hole at the end a finger hole? If it is, I wonder if there will be blade angle issues.

Oh, and welcome. :)

Screw holds on only one (right or left) liner. It's not going through two so blade lenght could be like this :)

I will say that if a knife like #2 could be made to work, I would totally buy one. It seems like it would fit in the palm very nicely while projecting a decent size of blade. It would look good, to boot.

As I said, next sheepfoot/warncliff design for c.joe. With 2 different edge shapes and "my" carbon fiber handle (I discover few new options in my graphic program :) )

Enjoy! ;)
