With recent interest in and success of wharncliffe and sheepsfoot Spydies, is it time for a re-issue of the Cantofante 4?

It seems to me like a C66 reissue might ride the coat tails of the Jazzlica to decent sales numbers and it would sure make my day :D

Didn’t the 4 kind of bomb? Seems like it didn’t stick around long.

I'd be fine with a simple reissue of the standard version and practically any other conceivable combo.

I would probably only be interested if it had a wood handle and a steel more exciting than vg10

Unless G Sakai has changed it's requirements, the first question is whether there would be 1200 pieces worth of interest.

I would want to see a remake of the Centofante Vesuvius with serrated edge.

I'd definitely be into a Cento 4 sprint, especially with HAP 40 or something even more exotic.

I think the 4 was one of those models (like the Tuf, for example) that did poorly on initial release and then became a sought after item after it was discontinued.

The 4 was one of my grails for a long time when I finally got one it had lost it's appeal for me especially compared to a Jazz Delica. Wicked slicer tho.

I voted for a HAP-40 version of the 4, but I honestly would be up to purchase any iterations of the 4

I'd be buying it.
Zdp, hap40, k390, lc200n, s30v, whatever. Cool knife.
