I still love the idea of a Graham Knives collab - the Razel is a fun concept, and I've used the fixed blade version, but the production folders don't do it for me and the custom folders are out of my price range. The same idea, with a spyderhole and super strong lock (instead of the liner lock on the production versions) would be awesome. I don't know if the CRKT partnership is exclusive or not, but I'd definitely love a Spyderco version in a better steel with a better lock.

I too would love a Spyderco Razel. I have a crkt stubby and a ringed and love the design. I think a dream knife for many would be a full sized spydie flickable razel folder with carbon fibre scales, or titanium. Lefty friendly please : )

Would be interesting to see a collab with Polish knifemaker Poltergeist Works, they already have a license to use the Spyder-hole so the companies are already talking.

I'd love to see the spyderhole in a Gustavo Cecchini design:

Charles Marlowe's Squail is such a great knife... I bought the Boker Squail and I think I'd bought any Spyderco collaboration without a second thought:

And, of course, a folder designed by R.J. Martin!

That Gustavo Cecchini is really a neat looking folder! Love the clean but functional look it has.

The one knife maker I'd really love to see a collaboration with is Yuna. His knives are piece of art, visually and technically. You can browse through his website and see for yourself. Fit and finish are perfect and he brings interesting handle/blade shape. If Spyderco could do a collab with him it might be the only way I could ever get my hand on one since the price on his knives are simply too high for my budget... and most! He has one of his knife for auction until oct. 1st
