FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed

[Lugi]

Ill get one for sure...dont have one.

How can it be blue, when orange has more votes? If their going by the poll, the glow in the dark is the one.

When Sal made the decision, Navy Blue was leading by quite a bit. If you read the thread, you will see a lot of discussion concerning the feasibility of GITD.

****...blue aint my choice, but im still in.

This is not the latest thread. Sal mad a comment that GITD is not an option, so there was second poll only with leading choices. Navy blue won

In the other thread about a Jester sprint run, Sal expressed his willingness to get one made:

We've already produced a green Jester. In order to make a new sprint, it would have to change from previous models (so as not to hurt the value of previous models). You can agree on a color that we've not used before, agree on an edge config or both and we'll do a run.

this thread is two years old. :eek: Are there any updates, rumors/gossips on the subject? bring them up. Did anybody see Jesters on the blade show

[jabba359]

Glad you brought this up, as I've had a navy blue Jester on my mind recently. I'd still be in to buy one.

Hi Folks!


THX Much for bring this up. :)

Does anyone has any news on this? Is it at least 'on the queue'? :rolleyes:

I still prefer british racing green, but will not pass on navy blue either. Will buy at least three, if availability and cost allow me to do so. :)

I'm still in for a couple. :)

[SpyderNut]

Yes, I'd like to see this happen also, regardless of color, steel type, etc. My only preference would be for screw-together construction (which would possibly be a CQI'd feature anyway).

[araneae]

I was just thinking about this the other day. Still looking forward to it.

[ohcyclist]

I thought it was confirmed this one was a go. Perhaps it will be a nice surprise in Q3?

[farnorthdan]

I'd be down for a couple also, have the G10 sprint and burgundy micarta but really like one I wouldn't mind beating.

50% with you :)
I am carrying grey sprint for years and also have burgundy micarta, which I cannot bring myself to use. So I need at least one for back-up and at least two for gifts. Hopefully they will be under $45.

:D :D YEP!!! John

[DougC-3]

I'm definitely down for one. It will be my first clipless spydie and may reside in the bottom of my shirt pocket. I would like to adapt a tiny clip to it for the top of the pocket. That would show the world that, though tiny, it would be brazenly Spyderco.

Edit: Not counting mules & swiks

[sal]

Don't have any news other than Ill bring it up with the planning group and the maker.

[SpyderNut]

That is exciting to hear, Sal. :) I'll be looking forward to this.

[bh49]

For some reason I thought that sprint Jester is already decided.

no prob posting the email.

sal

Awesome, I just didn't want to spill the beans if it was a secret for now.

Here goes:

"Hi Eli,

I've been watching the thread. We haven't selected our sprints for 2015. Currently we're keeping a list. We usually do about 4 per year, sometimes a few more. The dark blue Jester is on the list.

sal"

Thanx Sal and Spyderco! Can't wait.

[Sharp Guy]

I need more knives like I need another (Spydie?) hole in my head but I'd be in for a dark blue Jester!!

[bh49]

you cannot have too many Jesters

[SpyderNut]

you cannot have too many Jesters

That is true. I'd love to see a resurrection of the Burgundy Micarta Jester, but I'm afraid Micarta is not an option. Maybe G-10?
