204P and flat grind....yes please

Wouter, job very well done. Thank you for your effort.

I'm looking forward to some of the videos.

A short tabletop review of two upcoming Spyderco prototypes, the sprint run Squeak and Pingo. I notice I didn't get the zoom working correctly, sorry for the video quality. For reference, click herefor much better images of the Squeak prototype, and herefor better photos of the Pingo prototype.

I didn't realize the pingo was so much larger than the squeak. That pingo is quickly becoming a must have for me. Thanks for the vid!

A quick table top overview of the upcoming Raven 2 production sample by Spyderco. For a better look at the knife itself, see this post with my pictures and first impressions from the 2015 Amsterdam Meet.

Summer 2015, you say? It's a date. I think I'm going to love this knife. It's a good size, it's unique, it's useful, and it's darn handsome. I just hope it's in my price range.

I'll get one for sure.Or two.Price is a non-issue in this case.Blue anodized aluminum,gorgeous blade shape,enough said.Love it !

The Vrango is a definite for me. Looks awesome. The handle looked a little thick but it was hard to tell so maybe not. Looks interesting and functional.

Oh man that Vrango, must have Vrango, cant wait to get my hands on this one, I also really like that pingo for some reason, never been attracted to earlier versions but that Ti version looks very nice.

Last but not least is this short video I took of the upcoming Spyderco Tighe Stick, designed by Brian Tighe. Eric Glesser gives a quick table top preview of this stunning knife. Again, sorry for the poor video quality. Proper pictures of the Tighe Stick prototype can be found in this post.

Mr. Blonde,
Thanks for posting all the pics, vids and commentary. I was hoping there would be a vid of the Gayle Bradley 2. Was there any mention of whether this knife is expected to be released in 2015?

Wouter, has there been approval for the Magnitude to be shown by you? Just curious :D

And that's all folks! Thank you all very much for looking and following all the posts of the 2015 Spyderco prototypes. I've received many very kind messages during this process and I appreciate it very much. Most of all, thank you to the Spydercrew for giving us this access to upcoming designs, and specifically thank you to Ted and Marcel for making sure all the various prototypes at the meet got to my little photo booth, after they took some measurements of the knives! Do note that Ted measured the blade from the tip to where the handle would start, so the bladelength stated is longer than the edgelength.

Nope, it was not on the list for show & tell so to speak.

I like both Vrango and Tighe Stick,other than they tip down carry.

Ah, I see. Thanks for letting me know though! Guess the wait is on for a future peek :D
A hunger that cannot be silenced after the meet :p

Of all the knives shown, the ARK and colored Roadies are calling to me. I really like the orange and grey Roadies, and the blue and red ain't too bad either. :cool:

Thank you Wouter for another eye candy and for the joy you regularily bring to us.
It is inspiring to see so many unique and amazing designs. Congratulations to Spyderco for teaming up with all those talented knifemakers - to our Spyderco lovers satisfaction :D
