I would love a next gen in 3/16 3V. While we're at it a traditional ka-bar in 5160.
Moose,
Why not get a D2 Extreme and see about grinding off the serrations? You'd end up with planing edge such as that on the Tom Brown Tracker, with the edge's retention it'd be great for ferro striking and making feather-thin shavings. All you'd have to do is plan the geometry and work about it very carefully.
