We all have our favorites which we rave about. But what is it about a particular model that you would change, i.e. the tip up carry for the Millie.

I have a short list

Sage:
A deeper bellied knife would be nice. The point on the current blade drops down quite a bit. The Tenacious blade, which I prefer more over the leaf-shape of the Sage, is a very nice template to use.

I'm not a huge fan of blade choils. Thats why I like the ergos on the Tenacious.

Here's my ideal knife: A Tenacious with CF handles, wire clip, S30V or VG-10 steel, same blade shape, you'd have a winner on your hands!:thumbup:
 
I love my Barong, and I wish that it hadn't been d/ced. A compression lock and 50/50 choil to help cover up that big unsharpened portion would have been nice too.

I love my Centofante 3, and I wish that it didn't have quite as pointy a hump over the spyderhole.

I love my Lum Chinese, and I wish it came with a FRN or micarta handle.
 
I love my caly3 cf but i would change the cf to be a smoother finish, the clip to be black, add torx screws and brass spacers and full ZDP blade.
 
Love the Stretch, would love it even better with a deeper choil and no Boye dent.

I love my Military. Could I get a blade with indestructable steel so sharp that it splits atoms and can not be bent, flexed, chipped, scratched, dulled, rusted or melted. Also if I could get it in a color that is invisible to all but me?

Sorry, it is Friday.

Perhaps an H1 military with G-10 and all Ti hardware/liners?
 
Police 3, I have two of them.

I would love a ZDP , Blue steel, or HSS FFG blade run at moderately high RPM's. Fast and sexy!
 
I love my G10 dragonfly but I wouldn't mind if it had a liner lock.
 
I love my Orange Military, but I'd like it with:

A lefty compression lock

A thinner blade made of M4

A slightly shorter and thicker handle

Pillars where the back spacer is.

Love my Delica 4 wouldn't mind jimped finger-choil
Love my frn Dragonfly would like to see a wire clip and jimping on the blade spine and finger-choil
Would like to see a lock back Urban
 
I love my FRN Dragonfly but would love it even more if it had:

1. An adjustable pivot screw,
2. Jimping on the Thumb Ramp and Choil, and
3. A Deep Riding Wire Pocket Clip
 
I love my Tenacious but it could use:

1. Thicker pivot
2. Gripier G-10 in other colors
3. Bigger hole
4. Better steel
5. Deep pocket wire clip

Perfect.
 
I love my Bradley and maybe one day he'll find his big brother who has

A 1/2"+ longer cutting surface

A bit more finger protection for thrust cuts

A slightly more accessible liner lock release bar
 
Love my Police 3, I only wish it was available with S30V or better. VG-10 is good, but I can put a much finer edge on S30V.

Also, I wish that every Spyderco made provisions for tip-down carry. Tip-up sucks, for me at least.
 
I love my UKPK but wish it came with a lock. And before you shout Caly 3!, I like the deeper choil, the screw construction and S30V.

A Ti RIL UKPK would be awesome. Even a CF liner lock version would be nice.
