Well, 2017 is more than half over and still nothing that might give any glimmer of hope that we'll see an FRN Chaparral this year.

Can we get a casual bombshell dropped here please?

Old thread but thought I'd give it a bump to ask if there's any word on the next Chaparral?

I do think they should. So long as it's under about $180 I'd love to see a new handle material. Even if it's more I'd like to see it but probably couldn't buy it.

Sal said not too long ago he was carrying a water buffalo horn chaparral. I dint know if that was a one off or what

Re: Is Spyderco about to release a new Chaparral?
We're working on 3 possible Chaparral's. 2 new materials and one upgrade of a current material. Testing protos.

Thanks for the update Sal.
I wonder what the upgraded current material is...maybe carbon fiber.

I bet some additional FRN color options would make some people happy. Though I really like the gray.
Re: Is Spyderco about to release a new Chaparral?
FRN color options are always there. We'll see what the market (you) request?

Re: Is Spyderco about to release a new Chaparral?
I say keep up with the cool handle materials, but if you're taking requests for frn colors, may I throw in OD green or foliage green with or without a dlc blade? A blood orange or honeydew would be nice colors as well.

I could definitely get behind a foliage green with a non-DLC/satin blade.knivesandbooks wrote: ↑Mon Aug 06, 2018 10:56 pmI say keep up with the cool handle materials, but if you're taking requests for frn colors, may I throw in OD green or foliage green with or without a dlc blade?

I also still think the chaparral would look downright gorgeous in some blue or red nishijin.
