Yeah. Swayback too...
Re: Lil Chokwe
Looking forward to it. I'd just prefer it not be S30V steel. CTS-XHP would be nice. I'd be fine with VG-10 if it kept the price down.

Re: Lil Chokwe
I’m really excited for this one. More so now that I know it has a wire clip. This one is going to be awesome!
Re: Lil Chokwe
Personally I'd prefer the Compression-lock over the Frame-lock of the original. The prototype I handled was outstanding. Just with how the prices have been getting higher I'd love to see this one at the lower end $100 range. Understand that where it's produced will dictate steel choice. Still I'd rather see VG-10 or CTS-BD1N than upper end steels to keep the price down. I'm also good with the wireclip. My Caly 3 has one and I like how it carries. Blade shape is still the cool Seax-like looking blade.

Wire clip and a compression lock? You've got my attention :D

Re: Lil Chokwe
Do we know if the Lil Chokwe is going to be a production model? Or is it going to be a Flash Batch, similar to the Lil Nilakka?
I, personally, wouldn't want to see budget options on a Flash Batch. Just speculating, but I'm guessing the Lil Chokwe will be a Flash batch.

Re: Lil Chokwe
Any word on steel for this one?

Re: Lil Chokwe
Same question.
I like the Chokwe enough that I'm likely in for this one regardless, but I'd sure love to see it in an upgraded steel.
