The gripe thread

[thegeek574]

Alright everyone, it nis time for everyone to tell thomas exactly what knives should be brought back (cyclone) and what new versions of current knives that are a must. I will start.

THOMAS W: You must bring back the ZT 0500 MUDD. I would save forever to buy one, and then would be eternally grateful. as one of my favorite knives of all time, i just can not forgive you for not keeping that as part of the lineup. do not give me these excuses of manufacturing troubles, it will not work. I have seen the factory, you can do anything in there.

Next. I would like a S110V version of the leek. it would be perfect based on the fact that this knife is small and is not meant for longer chores, meaning that it would hold an edge forever. a little titanium wouldn't hurt anything, either.

also, I would pay more then MSRP for a BYOL/B (build-your-own-leek/blur) we would get to pick the combination of steel, blade type, serrated or not, handle color, handle material, Ect.

This is all a gripe, and, if nothing comes of it,. i will understand. however, i feel compelled to let you know that I am fully in favor of all these ideas.

agree with the build your own leek/blur. I was considering ordering a rescue (window breaker) then putting a s30v blade on it for my wife, but i dont want to buy 2 knives. Fun idea

I'm still waiting for that RAM with the ZDP-189, & a Blur with a frame lock.

Geek, do you need a MUDD? PM me.

Get a composite leek or a random leek to tide you over, too.

The Random Leek s30v is still made. I just wish it came with serrations.

Perhaps you should call it The Wishlist Thread.

I have a few Kershaw's catching my eye right now on my buy list,,,, but I am so over the basic black scales that are coming from Kershaw.

How about a Tremor and Knockout with a little bit of color. Glad to see at least a coyote being considered in 551 new flipper your designing.

I loved the 7000 auto in all the colors they came in!

Please consider this, even Nutnfancy agreed with me in his new YouTube Video on Tremor,

GIVE US COLORED SCALES!

:thumbup::thumbup: I couldn't agree more.. I'd love to see some more colors offered.

I do like the build-your-own idea too..Offer something like Buck does with the 110, make it customizable

More colour and some more of that 3D texturing is all I want more of. My "dream" Kershaw other than the ZT/Hinderer flipper is pretty much a new Volt that has the same size as the original, but with 3D textured G10 and a sub-framelock in a better steel than 8CR13MOV.

ZDP Ti frame lock Blur, Hinderer stabilizer, new deep pocket clip, w a flipper. Perfect knife.

 

[EricV]

ok a build your own blur/leek would be the shiznit.

I loved and have several of the lineraction 2420, 2415 and 2410 models. They were great knives that you could open slowly as a normal folder or push the thumb stud forward and the liner worked as a AO and it sprung open therefore the "lineraction" name.......Wish they came back!
