I think this is an amazing design and while it is well executed and perfectly serviceable in its current form I would love to see variants. Let the voting commence!

I voted other. I love Crucarta, but I'd like to see this model get Magnacut + micarta. Ikuchi Magnacarta for me.

Why not both!?!? :rofl
Seriously though, I think it is a solid platform for either combination. Maybe linen Micarta on the Salt version and canvas/burlap on the Cruwear. Dream big!

I wrote other because given how smooth and fast spyderco pivot-bushing-washer actions are I just don't have any interest in bearing-pivot knives.

True! The design is worthy of Sprints and Exclusive, IMO.

i'm carrying my ikuchi today, actually. i love this knife, especially when i want something with a lower profile without sacrificing blade length.

i also voted other, but i would never say the ikuchi doesn't deserve more love than it gets. i've been asking for an ikuchi salt for a while now, but i don't think magnacut was around when i asked before. personally, i'd like magnacut with titanium scales. it would still be on the classy side, but you could use it in harsh conditions as well.

I think Fradon had a Instagram poll on what they're next exclusive should be, I voted for an Ikuchi.

The Ikuchi is on small PB washers.

I'll vote other because I would much rather have a TI Magnacut Salt Ikuchi.

If ever there was a knife that could supplant my favorite EDC Mantra2, this would be it.
