The unofficial, non binding, carries no weight, 2020 forum knife possibility discussion thread

[coinbuysell]

I was on the original wait list for the Roundhead and have owned Dom's and Otnat's so I would be in for a swayback or two. I have been wanting to try one out but all of the GEC's are hard to find (or expensive) so why not do the swayback?

 

[JJ_Colt45]

Really interested to see what you bring to offer Mike ... this could be interesting. Really like the Swayback for one ... could we be so lucky?

 

[Elgatodeacero]

Just laser “BF2020” on the tang and go with a Santos wood Gitano!

And don’t forget the ten new dots.

 

[GeofS]

I’m interested! Thank you!

 

[JOELSM]

I’d be in for a forum Lionsteel Knife. In rams horn please!

 

[abbydaddy]

I'm in for whatever. And getting something in M390 would definitely mean it was more likely to see pocket time. I am excited.

 

[Shurke]

I would most definitely be onboard for a Viper swayback as the forum knife! Or a Lionsteel dom. As long as it has a straight edged blade, I'm in.

 

[meako]

rams horn, Swayback and cap lifter in stainless.....

Now ya Talkin'!

Good to support Italy too, all things considered.

Troppo vero

 

[BigKurtHaze]

In for one, please.

 

[TFBraden]

Any interest in an Italian made modern traditional (Titanium frame, torx screws, M390 steel)?

Sounds like a great idea!

 

[Wharn]

I’m down, a stainless option is always nice and the CK Lion Steel knives have been great so far. We appreciate it, Mike.

 

[meako]

"Just" thought I'd throw this leftover chilli out this morning as well

Gosh look what happened by the time I got home...

@knifeswapper Mike I think I can safely speak for many here when I say your magnificent suggestion....and lets not be shutting the gate just yet....Has lifted my spirits immensely.
Thanks.

 

[hornetguy]

Yessssssssss

hmmm... please clarify.... yessssssss, you like the idea, or yesssssss, you find it sacrilegious?

 

[sbh06]

I’d be interested in a Lionsteel for the forum knife.

 

[joeradza]

I’m on the bandwagon

 

[screened porch]

I look forward to posting a picture of my new Italian forum knife with my Armani spectacles. Even I am in.

 

[AnW]

I only have one Italian "Modern Traditional" but I love it. I say bring it on.

 

[Peregrin]

I believe Torx screws were invented by Baron Wolfgang von Torxenbacher, and first used on a pocket knife as early as 1874, so it does seem like they are traditional.

Interesting fact, the good Baron initially called his drive head “hexalobular”, but his mistress, a red head from Cologne, Germany, named Wilhelmine Hagen, told him he should call it the Torx drive and that my friends was that.

Of the west side von Torxenbachers, if I'm not mistaken.

I think you guys are pulling my leg!

 

[Pomsbz]

I'm in! How about a very traditional pattern of barlow with clip and pen blade? Nice traditional covers, say jigged bone, for the grumpy among us who don't like this sort of thing.

 

[bflying]

hmmm... please clarify.... yessssssss, you like the idea, or yesssssss, you find it sacrilegious?

Yes! I like the idea. And would buy one....... er......two.

And would love it to be a basic Barlow.
