Spyderco Civilian With the "Speed Safe" Torsion Bar

[BACKUP21]

Wouldn't it be great to have a Civilian made with the original Tufram finish and the Ken Onion "Speed Safe" Torsion Bar for assisted opening? This would definetly deter the bad street element out there by witnessing how quick the Civilian opens.

Backup, I wouldn't want a speed safe on any of my Civilians. I can open them just as fast, if not faster the way they are. I kinda like the G-10 also because it gives a great grip. Also the old style clip with the rubber insert gave away what knife you had in your pocket.

I own a few Kershaw models with the SpeedSafe feature. Fun to use as they are, I hate the fact that the torsion bar rattles in the handle in the open position. An assisted opening Spyderco? Interesting, but why ruin a good thing?
