Ready for a good cry?

Imagine the Kasper-Crawford Fighting Folder as a Spyderco MBC collaboration rather than from CRKT. Instead of the CRKT's bead-blasted AUS-6 blade and Zytel handles, with Spyderco's satin-finished VG-10 or CPM-440V, and Micarta (like the custom) or G10, and a Spyderhole (as above) instead of a thumbstud.

Anyone else shedding a few tears?

Take a look at the Buck Crosslock 'Yachtsman'. Otherwise, the ionfusion would work better for corrosion resistence.

That would absolutely rock! Alas I am sure that CRK&T has the KFF sewed up.

Another Crawford design would be cool or maybe a Lightfoot.

WOW! That's great, but how about a Crawford/WORTAC collaboration?

Hi all,

Glad to see that I'm not the only one.

I should note that the scan is from Arizona Custom Knives. It is a Crawford-made version of the KFF with ATS-34, titanium bolsters, and micarta handle, and as we see with a Spyderhole. The second I saw it I thought, "It should have been a Spyderco!" You don't even have to change the blade's shape for the hole!

Alas for what might have been...

Yesss, we wants it in our pocketses, come to Sgian Dubh my Precioussss.
I think most of us would strangle a Hobbit or two for one of these. Will we ever see one? Is it too late, did CRKT beat Spyderco to it?

Hi Carlos. That looks just like mine except mine hs no bolster and is fully serrated. Pat & Wes made it for me last year. They do nice work.

They are now working on my Kelly Worden "Wortac" with a hole and teeth. These are for my personal collection, but Pat is licensed to make customs with our hole.

I saw that knife on Arizona's website a few weeks ago and I really liked it. I ordered a CRKT (don't tell Sal) large Kasper last week and the minute I got it I started working on it. Here are some links of some pics of it. I will post a final picture when it is finished. I am trying to figure out what kind of material to use for the handle.

CRK&T's version is good for its price point but Spyderco could have done a much better job.

A Spyderco Wortac wouldn't be bad.
