We would love to see pic's, where are they ?
 
Gotta put that M4 steel right up front.

Good steel that makes the knife a contender for the spending sweepstakes.
 
It's supposed to be a "working man's" knife yet it has a clip that easily snags stuff, is a liner lock so dirt now has a hiding place, no jimping for the thumb, small choil with also no jimping, and it has a msrp of $215. I thought spyderco usually designs their products for function and not appearance, but it appears to be the other way around on this knife. Just my opinion.
 
I agree on the lack of thumb jimping and the small choil, but street price of this knife is probably going to be around that of the Military, with (IMO) better steel, and (also IMO) better handle material. I always carry clipped and I'm sure lots of members and "working men" do so too. I've never had trouble cleaning out my Mili's liner lock either.

Lack of thumb jimping is :( though. That said this is just a prototype so I'm sure some things will change.

I carry my folders clipped to my RFP, and it appears that the bottom parts of the clips for my spydercos, the part after it touches the handle and curves upwards then levels off, has a bad habit for snagging stuff.
 
Can't make everybody happy all the time I guess. Speaking for me, it looks right up my alley. I can't wait to get one and try it. I've been waiting for one for a long time now. Joe
 
We don't need the same thread in two places. Since the picture and the greater number of responses are in the other thread in the Spyderco area, I'm closing this.
