New Spyderco Stretch..?

How about a waved Stretch? It would save me half an hour.
 
I like my ZDP Stretch but I agree that there's something not quite aesthetically pleasing about the blade shape.
 
Clearly Spyderco is reading my mind again -- I've never cared for the current Stretch blade shape... so I guess I am "one of those people" :)
 
All this talk about British racing green and new blade shapes made me breakdown and purchase the blue FRN/ZDP Stretch this morning. I've been wanting one for a while, just kept putting it off. The low, low price didn't hurt either. I'm really looking forward to it, and hope it fills the gap in my EDC knives. My orange Millie is my utility/light woods knife, while I carry the ZDP Lum Chinese as my city knife. I kinda want to use the Stretch as my fishing knife (for trimming line, cleaning fish), due to ZDP staying razor sharp so well and the thin slicing blade. I've been rocking an Izula clipped to my PFD for freshwater fishing, but the thinner blade/harder steel/better corrosion resistance seems like the Stretch might make short work of the task.
 
I've had my original Stretch for (????) years. It's my EDC. Shows lots of wear but still not for trade or sale. I like it just the way it is. Love the drop point. Love the clip. Love the scales. Love the VG-10. These are the reasons I bought it. It's perfect for me. In my view if some folks don't like the Stretch get something else.
 
I've since picked up the Blue FRN handled Stretch and think I'll leave it as it is this time ;)
Love the thicker handles on this, lighter weight is ok but if there was a way to do the handles
in G10 and shaped like the FRN, that'd be VERY cool, but I guess it's a bit harder to
do contours in G10.

Thanks to Raj for this one, I had sold the CF one as it was a bit thin in the handle area
and had thought of getting one like this but held off.

I agree %100, I just got a Fully Serrated Stretch that is in need of waving BAD, but I just can't bring myself to do it....:eek:
