Endura 5?

[Dr Heelhook]

A larger more rigid pivot is the only thing I can think of as an improvement other than a FFG full SE variant.

Yes! Brilliant post!

Choil wire pocket clip, and a bigger lanyard hole

Ball bearing pivot or ceramic?

Never seen that before. Usually the pivots are made of steel. If you mean the washers, well, that would be a first for Seki City. I think a deeper lock face/interface would make it better. Also, for Deacon, I'd remove the Boye dent.

I wouldn't mind an Endura flipper

What would you like to see improved?

I would implement the backlock system that Spyderco put in the Sage4 and the Chaparral, because that supposedly eliminates vertical blade play in lock-backs. Probably mill out the liners a little bit more for reduced weight? Then keep everything else the same. Besides that I don't know what Spyderco could do to improve them.

-50/50 choil without changing the ricasso size
-g10
-wave + ffg + zdp + color choice
-NO wire clip PLEASE ! They are flimsy, offer poor retention even when tuned and on top of that they are butt ugly and dont belong to a working knife or any kind of high end knives for that matter.

I'd like to see a slightly larger 4" version with G10 and stainless clip. Maybe an Endura XL.
How about an assisted opener? Keep the price reasonable.

Most of these suggestions are either offered in a different knife, or would make it something it's not. I'd like to see a FFG waved endura with a full sized blade, and the return of the endura g10.

if sprint runs using foreign steels is not possible, then how 'bout a g-10 and titanium version as a regular offering? a full-liner g-10 endura can compete in the $120-$150 class.

FFG should be standard now, so that will stay. From there we could see an improved clip (better finish, along with deep carry). I would love to see a sprint run model with a full convex grind.

All that said, not much can be done to improve the Delica or Endurance. Those knives rock!

 

[SoCal_kid]

I like the dlc option with s30v or another higher end steel. I do favor my ffg Endura 4. Bought one for a friend too. Just saying.

 

[vba]

Gosh, am I the only one that likes the ruggedness of the sabre grind? I own both FFG and sabre Endura's and would hate to see the sabre go away.

 

[hank_rearden]

right now, the only option for multiple endura collectors is buying different color handles. if Seki City could sprint or make regular productions of different super steels, the endura will outsell the para.
