How can it be blue, when orange has more votes? If their going by the poll, the glow in the dark is the one.

This is not the latest thread. Sal mad a comment that GITD is not an option, so there was second poll only with leading choices. Navy blue wonLugi wrote:Ill get one for sure...dont have one.

Re: FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed
this thread is two years old. :eek: Are there any updates, rumors/gossips on the subject? bring them up. Did anybody see Jesters on the blade showjabba359 wrote:In the other thread about a Jester sprint run, Sal expressed his willingness to get one made:

Re: FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed
Glad you brought this up, as I've had a navy blue Jester on my mind recently. I'd still be in to buy one.
The Little BIG Jester!
Hi Folks!
THX Much for bring this up. :)
Does anyone has any news on this? Is it at least 'on the queue'? :rolleyes:

Re: FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed
I still prefer british racing green, but will not pass on navy blue either. Will buy at least three, if availability and cost allow me to do so. :)jabba359 wrote:Glad you brought this up, as I've had a navy blue Jester on my mind recently. I'd still be in to buy one.

Re: FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed
Yes, I'd like to see this happen also, regardless of color, steel type, etc. My only preference would be for screw-together construction (which would possibly be a CQI'd feature anyway).

I thought it was confirmed this one was a go. Perhaps it will be a nice surprise in Q3?

I am carrying grey sprint for years and also have burgundy micarta, which I cannot bring myself to use. So I need at least one for back-up and at least two for gifts. Hopefully they will be under $45.

Re: FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed
I'm definitely down for one. It will be my first clipless spydie and may reside in the bottom of my shirt pocket. I would like to adapt a tiny clip to it for the top of the pocket. That would show the world that, though tiny, it would be brazenly Spyderco.

Re: FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed
For some reason I thought that sprint Jester is already decided.

"Hi Eli,
I've been watching the thread. We haven't selected our sprints for 2015. Currently we're keeping a list. We usually do about 4 per year, sometimes a few more. The dark blue Jester is on the list.

Thanx Sal and Spyderco! Can't wait.

Re: FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed
I need more knives like I need another (Spydie?) hole in my head but I'd be in for a dark blue Jester!!
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

you cannot have too many Jesters

Re: FRN Jester Sprint Input Needed
That is true. I'd love to see a resurrection of the Burgundy Micarta Jester, but I'm afraid Micarta is not an option. Maybe G-10?bh49 wrote:you cannot have too many Jesters
