Chaparral with Odin's Eye Damasteel blade and with bolsters similar to the Kopa's, only without any provision for clip mounting. I would order them without scales, then have Santa Fe Stoneworks fit small batches of them with a variety of scale materials.

Bring back my beloved Poliwog with ZDP-189 , full flat grind, and some jimping on the finger choil but not on the back. Just keep it's edges sharp like they are so my thumb dont slip off side to side. G10 scales .... don't really care what color just something other than black like my original.

A C42 with M390 and polished CF would be great too!

I kinda like the idea of knives that are replaceable, so I don't worry about using them, but if I commissioned a sprint run, it would be:

SE H1 Delica with dark green G10 and full liners
or
PE Swick in CTS-XHP
Delica PE, Dragonfly Salt SE, Stretch SE, Manbug SE, Mule 16, Sage 1, black/satin PM2, Native 5

I would love to see more translucent color options on this knife... will we see sprints in colors first, or more production options, like the Delica/Enduras?

"GoodEyeSniper
oh, I think a nice thin fixed blade with sort of a paring knife design. 3" blade range, super blue steel, kydex sheath."

This is a great idea!

I would request the Bill Moran FB01 with Arizona Desert Ironwood in Super Blue or Damascus clad ZDP189 or something available in the Japanese mfg point. Steel thickeness could be similar to the current production but with a very slight convex (nearly flat grind) blade grind down to a thin (0.010") profile behind the convex micro bevel. :)

You sure you don't mean Manix 2 XL ? A true zombie hunter can never have too big a blade.

How about a Manix 2, carbon fiber, S90V, compression lock. I love the Manix2 ergonomics, hate the BBL.

I would like extremely limited runs of Kiwi/ Kopas and gentleman pieces. No clip in very exotic scale materials. Mammoth tooth/Bark. Fossil Walrus etc, no expenses spared , but excellent quality and Damasteel of course . possible hand carving also. Yes Spyderco I'm am serious no expenses spared knives that are not too prefabbed .

I am waiting . The Southard was a first step at "premium" innovative production absolutely. I am sure Mr. Schempp could help with the .
Damasteel


Also I apologize for piggybacking off your qoute Deacon :o



I just feel we need some super "signature" high end limited Spydercos


Bottom line is I will pay more for a more refined/finished precise Spyderdco.
