When the 0560 came around people asked for a more compact version and basically got their wish with the 0566. Do you ever come across blades you'd like to see in a different size, either larger or smaller? Personally I'd like to see slightly a larger version of the Kershaw Knockout. It's functional as is and I dig the design but that handle is just a tad to petite for my hand and that blade just a little too small for comfortable food prep. I wish they'd do a slightly bulkier version with a 4"-ish blade.

Which blades would you like to see in a different size?
 
Smaller, thinner PM2. They don't use the compression lock enough. Also, a larger Dragonfly like someone else said. Same thickness, but larger so people can flick it open easily. The Blur in a mini. Aaaaand a mini 940 for Benchmade, maybe also a new 705 which is the smaller version of the 710. Just don't like the aluminum on the 707.
 
I wish Benchmade would make a thinner griptilian; love the design of that knife but the handles are FAT!

I also wish Benchmade would release a "medium" version of the 710. The 705 and 707 are too small. If the 707 had a larger handle I'd office EDC that everyday!
 
I'd prefer to see a larger:
Spyderco Dragonfly
Spyderco Para-Military (Thicker blade and handle)
Benchmade Griptilian (I'm dead serious, a BM 551 feels small to me)
DPx HEST/F
Boker/Curtiss Nano (It would be a mini butcher lol)
 
I really want a larger version of my checking account so I can buy more knives at their current size.
 
I agree with the smaller Kershaw Blur.

Possibly a larger Benchmade Sequel.

Smaller, thinner ZT 0801 and 0550 just for kicks.
 
Smaller ZT0801. I'd like a larger **** too.
 
A smaller Benchmade Bedlam with about a 3.3-3.5in blade.

Edit to add an Emerson Persian in the same size.

Mini Southard as some have modded with blade just under the 3 inch mark and remove lanyard hole. Maybe a mini PM2 with same blade size, just under 3 inches but also take the handle size down enough to remove lanyard hole.
 
May be a minority, and I may get flamed for mentioning Cold Steel, but I would like to see a larger Tuff Lite. Ditch the current handle and go with G10. I really like that blade shape.
Also something in between the strider PT and SNG.

Agree. I'd love to see a D'fly with a 3" to 3.25" blade. That would rock.

Totally agree. If the 707 had a 1/4" longer handle it would be perfect.

Agreed. I'd love to see a Southard with a 3" blade and a thinner blade too. Maybe a 2.5mm blade. It would be beautiful.
 
The longest William Henry blades will barely slice through an apple. I wish they would offer some larger non-gentlemen folders.
