The Shaman was a knife that I was very interested in and put off but now that I own one I really enjoy it. It is my favorite Spyderco that I own and could easily beat out the Para 2 any day of the week.
I know that the materials/price are keeping some members away. It did me as well but now that I own the knife I'm glad that I do. If I lost it I would buy another immediately. This isn't a thread to talk about the value of the Shaman but to talk about what we'd like to see in future sprint runs.
Sal has mentioned carbon fiber and s90v. I'm not huge on either one of those (although many of you might be). Let's put together a survey and see what other options people may really dig.
Blade Steel:
Choose your top 3 options for blade steel.
Handle:
I didn't add handle material - I feel that would make the survey cumbersome. I prefer micarta/G10 myself and would be fine with either. You can indicate your handle material preference in a comment.
What's a thread without a picture?
