Is it getting close to a new Goddard sprint run?

What are the chances that we can see a new C16 lightweight from seki anytime soon? I think it would look/perform great in that K390 blue.

Def one I wish I hadn’t sold. Very close to being an FRN Siren too with the prominent guard

I'll put in a request. Plain and fully serrated FRN. Steel preference?

And Sal if you’re in the mood to take requests, would love to see a K390 Manix or Shaman with a blue g-10 handle, similar to the blue frn used in the deli k390 models! Would be amazing! I am sure the challenge is getting the steel to Golden, but for a sprint run you would make a lot of people happy.

This would be cool!

And despite I generally prefer ffg - in this case I´d love to see it in that cool sabre hollow grind...

Ah, yes, and HAP 40 for me... ;)

As long as it is Saber Grind any steel will work for me . I won’t quibble over steel if there is a possibility to see the Goddard return . MG2

Agree whole heartedly. Specially if using a steel that's easier and therefore cheaper to source will help keep the price down.

That blue g10 k390 Manix sounds like music to my ears… :cheap-sunglasses :squinting-tongue
But i would also like to see a hollow or saber ground goddard in k390 Sal.

Thread needs photo. FFG is my preference. K390 or SPY27 would be dandy.

Only 2.9 oz for 3.7" blade? Wow! Great backpacking knife. Safe features, too; a benefit in the backcountry.

I was about to ask what's the attraction with this model, and then you guys come along..

Anything that's eligible for the "Bolster backpacking approved" stamp is worth considering. Would want it to be stainless though.
