- Zero Tolerance 0562CF, 0180 (0770CF, 0801CF, 0888MAX soon)
- Spyderco Rubicon, Slycz Bowie, Chubby
- Benchmade 940-1
- LionSteel TM-1, Flipper
Nice list you have going there RamZar; mine is relatively the same.
- Lionsteel Flipper (If it's what I'm imagining it could be, I'll lose my $h*t over this model)
- Modified Spydero Laci Szabo (Should correct everything I disliked about this knife the first time around)
- Spyderco Rubicon
- ZT 0562CF
- Spyderco Frontier
- Benchmade 940-1 (This should be higher on the list, but I'm trying hard not to buy BM after their "F**k you" price increases)
- ZT 0454 (Not sure if it will come out in 2014, if so, it will be in the #2 spot if I can get one)
The LionSteel flipper better be a one-piece solid frame!
The Szabo Mini will be 2015 at the earliest.
I treat the Benchmade 940-1 as a special edition regular production with that CF & S90V. Only two Benchmades for me this year (the other was 484 Nakamura) unless they announce another "special edition".
I did not mention ZT 0454 because it'll probably be 2015 since takes them almost two years from announcement for these extra special show knives.
The Szabo will be a full size this year, if they ever make a smaller I'm done for 2 at the minimum. I'm having a modifier put real LSCF handles on the knife, remove the spring, put in a real detent and smooth the sharp edges. :thumbup:
I'm excited about the Kershaw and ZT Emerson colabs.
I can't believe no ones said the G-10 Cryo! As a budget knife, the thing is absolutely gorgeous. It's like a $40 Hinderer clone.
