Construction with compression lock, wire clip, and carbon fiber Sounds amazing, thanks Sal!
I would put in a plug for Rex45, Hap40 or M4 as the blade steel.

Thanks for the small lesson Sal. It does however give me a little question about tooling. Is making the tooling for all the spyderco manufactureres the same? or does every factory make there own Tooling? :)sal wrote: ↑Sat Aug 04, 2018 1:15 pmCurly,
We probably would not use S90V coming out of the Chute. S90V is a steel junky's material and we need to try to reach a more general market. Considerations might include, CTS-BD1N, LC200, CPM-S30V, CPM-154, etc. A stainless steel, not too hard to sharpen, takes and holds a good edge.
Hi Apollo,
It' not practical to tool up in more than one place for a model.Tooling is quite expensive and must be amortized over many pieces for sometimes years.

If it needs to be stainless, I would vote for CPM-S30V or CPM-154. I've never tried LC200. I'm not a fan of CTS-BD1N.sal wrote: ↑Sat Aug 04, 2018 1:15 pmCurly,

Those are good suggestions for stainless.
Have you tried BD1N? I’m not a fan of BD1, but all accounts of BD1N have been pretty favorable.captnvegtble wrote: ↑Sat Aug 04, 2018 2:30 pmIf it needs to be stainless, I would vote for CPM-S30V or CPM-154. I've never tried LC200. I'm not a fan of CTS-BD1N.
hmmmm... maybe I'm getting them confused. I'll have to look up BD1N.SF Native wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:24 pmHave you tried BD1N?

I’m really looking forward to trying it. Just need to find one of the ukpk’s that been upgraded.
LC200 would be awesome!sal wrote: ↑Sat Aug 04, 2018 1:15 pmCurly,
