We would make a G-10 version with full metal backspacer/spring holder and full liners.

OK, you guys are a pain sometimes
What color G-10 would make you happy? (We do have some Foliage green G-10 being custom made for us).
Full liner I presume?
A guess a "sprint" could be something to consider for the future ('08).

Basically no wear (spring "movement", position change) - as it is connected with the lock I'd rather have all parts made of more/most durable material.
It's like the molded vs steel clip - both work but steel one is more durable and small increase in price will pay off when, after few years, you don't have to worry about/repair any problem.
(also SS backspacer looks better but that's only added benefit
)Does this mean no nested liners? If so, this would hardly be as strong as a common D4. Spyderco found out that nested liners are stronger then side by side onces. If the D4 G-10 Foliage would have no nested liners then the difference would only be the colored G-10 instead of colored FRN, maybe higher weight but hardly higher strength, especially when keeping the 2,5 mm lockbar and blade. Then the gentlemen´s knife Caly3 with its 3 mm non nested liners could be stronger as the new D4. This is not what I´ve dreamt of. If it is what makes the most ELUs happy, no problem with it though. I´m sure collectors would like it.
Best wishes,
JB
