Just imagine Spyderco could technically do any change you´d like to see in an existing knife-model and produce the result in a sprint run . So just for this thread: Let´s dream anything would be possible and not think about technical and economical reality. No limits, could be grind, stock, lock, blade shape, handle material, what ever comes to your minds, just NOT steel (as runs in different steels are done anyway).
But everything you do NOT specifically mention as to be changed stays exactly the same as in the existing model
To me immidiately quite a few ideas come to mind, I´d like to see for example:
- Backlock Shaman
- "Maximum edge length Delica" (so no Ricasso and extending the blade to the very end of the handle when the knife is closed)
- Centofante 3 in FFG instead of sabre / hollow grind
- Stretch 1 in 2mm bladestock
- "Stouter tip Military" (so design the tip like on the Endura or do less tapering in the blade)
- backlock Military
- Shaman with Micarta scales (not so much science fiction, as we´ll probably see that!! :) )
- FRN Kapara
- "No choil Native": That would be almost a very different knife honestly: I´d like the bladeshape of the Native 5, but no choil (so longer edge); reform the handle so that "guard" is at the very front of it and the handle would offer a full 4 finger grip. Overall dimensions, linerless FRN and so on would stay the same.
Any ideas or dreams?
