My “ultimate spyderco” concept - years in the making...

[Warriorsociologist]

After 10 or so years of sorting out the Spydies I really like and use, I think I have finally (for now) come up with what would be my “ultimate spyderco."

Call it the “Native V” (unless this model is already in the works)

G-10 handles w/ steel liners
Screw construction
Mid lock-back (standard)
Full flat grind w/ swedge (like the C41CFP)
S90v plain-edge (though, I'd pick one up in either S35VN or S110V too... )
"Golden - made"

Basically a C41CF with “cheaper” handles and “better” steel.
I liken it to a “Mini-Mini Manix”


Please Sal???

I like everything about that, but I think I'd still prefer VG-10. But G-10 over liners, yes, I'll take one as long as the only choices aren't OD "green" or digital camo. Give me blue, purple, black or real green and I may buy one of each.

Black G-10 would be preferred (for me).
Natural Canvas Micarta....would be great!
Ti? (nah, to $$$)

Either way, the full SS liners would allow me to re-handle with scales of my choosing...so as long as everything else is in order, I'd buy a handfull of these.

you could put me down for at least two.:thumbup:

Any others -- or are we just "strange."

I would take one of those in a second.

Sounds good to me........a flat gound Native with G-10 handles would be a great edition to the family. :thumbup:

Of course I'd be cool if either S35VN or S110V too.

 

[tomdogma]

sounds great to me!
it could push my carbon caly out of my pocket

 

[Warriorsociologist]

With all this thinking about a new "dream" Native, I just ordered another PE one!
Sal, guys, you seeing this?

Hmmm... any chance one could swap handles with a regular FRN one and the purple on on the Spydie forum knife? Anyone done a swap on a pinned knife?
