ive been waiting for a knife like this for a long time

http://www.spyderco.com/catalog/details.php?product=445

spyderco with 3 7/16 in cpm-m4 blade, twill cf, nice 4 position clip, and a LINER LOCK. SCORE! its a little beefy at 5.5 oz and sadly its hollow ground (but a perfect hollow grind at that) unlike our favorite military but who could ask for a better knife eh? im picking one up asap

You are probably the only one that is going to be that excited it is a liner lock. I might get one eventually but the liner lock is what is going to slow me down.
 
Reminds me of a grainier flat version of a Centofante 3 only w/o a lockback and almost 7x's the price. I'd wait until they were on the market for awhile, but my wallet dictates my purchases. You want it - go for it man it's nice! :thumbup:

not my cup of tea, I was expecting more from all the hype. Its nice but not something I would buy.
 
Looks like another typically nice Spyderco.

Besides the steel , is there an opinion on why the msrp is so high ?

I honestly don't know why people are so against the liner lock, especially done by Spyderco. I felt the Captain, Military, Lum Chinese, & Rock Lobster were/are all very good folders & their liner locks are fine.

Spyderco's back-lock is fine & it does allow it to be used with either hand, but back-locks seem to be develop blade-play over time, whereas I've had liner-locks for quite some time that didn't develop any problems.

I'm not knocking the back-lock, just pointing out that not everything's perfect or terrible.

Aside from the lock, are there any other issues that people have of this new model? I can only imagine how nice the M4 blade's going to be. 1 of my EDCs is a BM 760 LFTi that performs great.

I'm looking forward to the knife. Pricewise, it seems to be in the normal price range of Spyderco, considering the materials being used.
 
yeah its gonna be 150 bucks but ill gladly pay it. i prefer spydercos liner lock to any lockback roughly 110% of the time. it looks beefy but not too beefy, m4 steel is a big upside, tons of belly and a hollow grind reminiscent of a lightfoot. this will probably be my favorite spyderco since the orange military, and before that...the military. and of course, that is saying something
 
Terzuola slipit.

This will probably cost around the same as the Mili, which is decent seeing as you get CF and M4 as a tradeoff for 3 7/16in of blade and a hollow grind.

Really hope that linerlock is nested!
