How about a Blade (SOG) Forums SE folder?

[Full Tang Clan]

I know it may not make a lot of economical sense as SOG may not have as big as a following as other knife-makers. In fact, SOG may lose money by doing it...

But, what better way is there to boost the profile of SOG than making a special edition knife for forumites? A lot of the other makers are doing it.

I already suggested at the knife testing forum that I would personally enjoy seeing:

1. The ti-handled Vision w/arclock : black pearl inlays in the ti-handles, plain edged (maybe with Tomcat style blade). Or a same knife but with Old Wild West Colt .45 type engraving on the handles.

2. The Pentagon folder w/arc-lock : ti-handles (like above) to give a modern stilleto look. Multi-colored G-10 would be nice too.

I'd love to see XRAY or basically any arc lock knife with non tanto point

Some time ago Sergiusz posted these drawings,

IMHO those look cool

Sergiusz, I hope it's ok to repost your images

Well, since we're making suggestion ...

Instead of yet-another sabre-ground hollow-ground folder, why not leap over the competitors and do an even better using knife? Give that thing a full flat grind (from spine to edge), and you'll have a serious winner on your hands. Based on my Night Vision impressions, that would probably be a competitor for my fave folder.

I'd buy it in a sabre-hollow-grind also. Just get rid of that modified tanto and put a practical working blade shape on it! A sharp point, some belly, you got it.

I would buy a bladeforums SE version of the 5" blade pentagon elite II.
