... Chris Reeves would make a knife with the Mountaineer II blade, but with a micarta handle. I love the shape of that blade, but I've never made peace with the round, solid metal handle. Then give it a kydex sheath. It would rock for civilian woods-wandering use.

To my knowledge, none of the CRK fixed blades currently have the Mountaineer II blade shape, do they?
 
The Pacific is about as close as you can get, and that is pretty close but the blade on the Pacific is a bit larger and obviously has the serations.
 
Yes, the serrations kill it for me. I even called CRK and asked them if they'd make a version of the pacific without the serrations when it first came out, but no dice. :(

Everyone's fixated on the tacticool stuff, but I have to imagine that 90% of the actual usage for these knives (outside of safe queens, that is) are civilians wandering around in the woods.
