Things you would want to see in a knife that won't happen....

[Silvanus]

I hope this will be a fun thread....

I've just been thinking of design changes or just things in the knife world I'd like to see happen but through either production costs or manufacturing capabilities or whatever probably won't.

1) A "CC" ZT0560 - I'd really like to see a ZT0560 handle done like a Strider CC model with smooth g10 and Ti. Throw in an M390 blade and I think we would have a winner.

2) A knife collaboration between Hinderer, Emerson, and Busse. Basically a XM-18 3.5" spanto or slicer grind with a .125 stock blade made of INFI and Emerson quality G10 with a wave feature instead of a flipper. I wish I was an artist because I'd like to show off how awesome it looks in my head.

So let your imaginations go, let's see what you'd like to happen in the world of knives.

I don't see what's wrong with that steel. Sure there are much better steels but for a budget knife it's pretty good.

The option to get saber or flat grind in every knife made.

+1 World peace and saving all the dolphins. and........

Making lanyard holes that are too small to fit 550 cord a crime punishable by castration.

A KVT flipper with an Emerson Horseman blade made of M390.

More Microtechs! (they are so hard to find).

 

[Accelerator]

A spyderco stretch with the axis lock.

All Benchmade griptilians come with G10 (or better) and standoffs.

All Busses priced at or below swamp rats.

S30V becomes the "low-end" steel of choice and everything goes up from there.

Cuscadi opens a US manufacturing plant so we no longer need to worry about the exchange rate, Wilkins too!

All Benchmade knives come centered from the factory.

All ZT limited releases become regular production knives.

Taichung Taiwan finally gets the respect that it has already earned.

Hinderer knives get cheaper once they hit the secondary market.

Becker knives all come with the custom scales of your choice, at no added cost.

A knife that endlessly makes $20.00 bills appear when you squeeze the handle.

I think the 0560cbcf covers most of this. Smoothed out, super steel...




I want to see a compression lock flipper.

Taichung Taiwan finally gets the respect that it has already earned.

This might be fit another thread but I think Taichung knives get plenty of respect almost to the point of being overrated considering the price point.

+1 on the griptillian zt production and taichung.

[K.O.D.]

Reasonable secondary market prices.

 

[BenLong1018]

I would love to see a liner lock paramilitary 2 I hate the compression lock.

A medium Sebenza 21/25/or umnumzaan. I really want to try out CRK, but the small sebenza is just too small for me, but the large is a bit bigger than I like to carry. Something similar in length to the ZT 0566 would be awesome.
