This!
Ti ladybug/manbug with premium blade. (ZDP)
Ti handled H1 bladed folder. Any one, but plainedge please.
Other than that i am just looking forward to the release of the Techno and Bradley air!!
And this isn't so much as a sprint request but an idea. The sage series seems to be very popular, and I know the request for spyderco to have a custom shop is made regularly. What about a modular knife series? I realize this could be an engineering nightmare, or even maybe an impossibility to achieve the level of fit and finish that Spyderco is known for. But I'm thinking a knife frame that has interchangable blades. Then different blade steels could be brought out, different handle materials, different colors, materials, etc. At the very least add a small amout of customization. The current ladybug comes in five colors FRN (green, black, foilage, yellow, and purple.) (plus neon orange and Tan in the county comm versions) and three different blade steels. (H1, VG-10, and ZDP) I love the zdp version...and I love the purple color. (If my purple one was screw construction I would have already switched the blade.) I think the Delica would be a natural for this. Already several colors and two blade steels available. add another blade steel or two and let the customer order one mixed to his or her desire. The para 2, or Native 5 might be a better platform because of more steel options available on the American made models. Just a thought.

Oh, forgot to mention. I'd really like to see an Endura with titanium bolsters and polished micarta or some sort of woodburl. Use Super Blue steel, as well!

I missed that, but that would be pretty cool. I don't own anything in Damascus.

I agree with EZ Bake; I would love to see an Orange Para-military 2 with some special/rare steel like CTS-XHP as said or s35 or even the s90 that some of the sprints have. Will wait a bit before getting a second para2 in hopes of an Orange one to come out.
That is all I need; to buy another Para2 and then an Orange one came out. My sickness would kick in and I would have to then buy a third.

A Caly 3.5 sprint in a stainless would be great.

I agree but it is pretty much limited to ZDP. Sal has confirmed that a ZDP/CF Caly 3.5 should be out in 2012. I'd love to see American steel on a Caly 3.5 but that just will not happen.

Dedra was reading this when I clicked onto it & said "yes!". This was exactly what we wanted to hear. ZDP-189 & CF go great together so far. Thanks.
