Aqua Salt

#1

Post by Jeff Jenness »

Hey Sal!

I was wondering if a smaller version of the Aqua Salt was on the horizon or being considered. In fact, an an H1 neck knife would be something I would love to see ... around a 3" blade and fully serrated of course! No trouble with moving parts, easy to care for and completely waterproof. Anyway, just wanted to see what the chances were for something like this.

Thanks!

I was thinking the same thing thew other day. I picked up a vintage Vagabond and it's handle reminded me a lot of the Aqua Salt. Then I was thinking what if Spyderco brought out a similar knife in H1 with a blade a little longer than the Vagabond's, but shorter than the Aqua Salt's--kind of like an Aqua Salt crossed with an Esee 3. Whatever...I'd buy one!

Glad to hear that somebody else has the same interest. I think that a serrated H1 neck knife would make one great utility blade. Now if we can get Sal to agree?

There is a good chance it will happen in The future, Spyderco is
working on some small fixed blades in vg10 so there is a good chance they make a h1 version at some point.

Would certainly be a handy size. I'm looking forward to seeing the smaller fixed blades.

FWIW, when I was at Blade and Joyce was showing me the Autonomy, she mentioned that due to the amount of H-1 Spyderco had to purchase in order to build the Autonomy, we will almost certainly be seeing other US models using it. Given that the C41 Native Lightweight is the only unlined FRN model coming out of Golden, I think an H-1 fixed blade is certainly a possibility.

The horse is already out of the barn, but how about an H1 Mule or Swick-like blade (scale-less)?

Hi guys, I don't want to burst anyone's bubble, but for reasons that are too complicated for me to post it is highly unlikely that there will be any other U.S. made models with H1. Autonomy is an exception only because as an automatic it cannot be produced outside of the U.S.

I'd like to see what the new VG-10 small fixed blades are like first.

Though I would like to see something like the Swick 2 in H1 and serrated. Or perhaps something like the prototype, reverse edge Swick from many years ago.

This one.

I really miss the Aqua overall. Really would like to see it's return one way or another, it really is a great utility knife especially for fishermen
