what do you want from spyderco in the next 5 years?

[Popsickle]

i would be all over a c95 3v sprint and a S110V Military
i have striders in both and these steels are just amazing. My first love is spyderco and i would love to see S110V break into the spydie world!

I'd like to see...

Ed Schempp sub 3inch slipjoint for Europe
Byrd fixed blades
Catcherman full re-issue, or Catcherman 2?

-I really like that spyderco improve its knives with full flat grind blades, keep doin it (except the spyderedges) :spyder:
-I do miss large/medium camp fixed blades in product list ... I think A2, CPM-M4, CPM-3V and some other carbon steels will be perfect :D
-Maybe alot of people will disagree but I think backlock system is antiquated (there is precondition for vertical play in some models), so maybe less backlocks instead of liner/frame; compression and some new tipes of locking. :confused:
-I agree with "Spyderhole" about handle materials, colours and quality of screws.
-I think m390 is the new s30v. Commercialize it, with replacing it in more of your existing folders.
-Continue with Mule project. Its one of the best initiative started by knife company.
-Be the same great company as the last years :spyder: :)
I hope I helped somehow. Regards from Bulgaria.

Count me among those who disagree. Out of the first 50 new models Spyderco introduced, 37 were midlocks. Out of the last 50, only 10 were and, out of those ten, only two were within the last four years so I don't see much room for reduction. IMHO, the midlock is still the easiest to use and most foolproof ambidextrous lock out there. It's also the only one I have any real interest in.

I would like to see the knives that have a black blade be complimented with black hardware. From what I've seen, only the PM2 and Manix2 are like this. I would also like to see the Pacific Salt black blade model have a silver H1 logo on the blade instead of gold. Or maybe gold hardware on the handle just to make it match a little better. Something about gold and silver on the same knife....

What I'd like to see and I'm always looking for is some nice higher end shears. Nicer would be an EDC pair of shears and an outdoor pair of shears.
