A new kind of mule.

I'm going to make this short and sweet, so we can commence the discussion.
I have been using the Caribbean daily for a while now. It has been, by and large the best designed knife I have used. The handle ergonomics are great, the locking system is excellent and the blade, don't get me started.
The way the tang is below flush with the scales, awesome! It was made to cut and cut it does. I first saw it and thought, "No forward choil? Why not?" Because you(me) are a stupid who knows not what he needs. That's why!
So much for short and sweet, eh?
Anyways, I feel the Caribbean design lends itself to being the successor to the Mule Team Project. Maybe using the larger Caribbean frame, make different models with a new steel and scale color each time.
It seems like it would be a great test bed to try out steel performance in a standard design, just like the Mule Team. But, in a more appealing package for the average knife buyer. Most of the time a fixed blade doesn't lend itself well to being an EDC.
That's my proposal, what do you think?
We can call it the Spyderco Royale. :cool:
