Sypderco Pink Squeak (for the daughter) I have three Spyderco pink natives for the Women now.:D

Spyderco 5x5 Jumpmaster knife looked cool.:thumbup:

Sypderco Enuff without handles (just a tease). Would love a Sypderco version of a Buck Paklite/Becker BK11:D
 
It was a concept knife (not in production) and they were looking for feedback from the folks walking by. To be honest I do not remember much about it, but of the 20-30 Spyderco knives on the table the above three caught my attention. Too bad my short-term memory is not better:rolleyes:
 
Does Spyderco typically announce new releases or anything at Blade Show or do they just rehash what's already in the pipeline and current products?
 
As I recall from shot, the 5X5 was a fixed blade with the superb jumpmaster FRN handle, but a PE, pointy blade. FRN, Fulltang, I will be buying one when they come out.

It's been a few months and I must have looked at 30 knives so not 100% on this.
 
I believe that the 5X5 will be made in VG-10. However, the knife that I was most excited by was the Phil Wilson collaboration in S90V. There was also a cool looking small frame lock on the right side of the table that I also liked.
 
It's extremely important that a jumpmaster have a safe, functioning knife while doing his thing in any combat or training jump. Soldiers have died horrible deaths because no one had a knife to cut their static line loose and get them free. It should be mandatory, not something left up to chance.
 
They have announced on Facebook that they are working on the 2012 mid-year supplement catalog.

So maybe some of these might make it in there.
