What custom would you like to see go into mass production?

[cali]

Phil Boguszewski Cobra Flipper.

 

[Tenbeers]

Polkowski BullDog.
I thought CRKT did a decent job on the Companion.
How about this one?

 

[GarageBoy]

Terzuola ATCF (not the microtech one please)
A nicer Crawford KFF

I would second the DDR request, but then again maybe not. If he did offer a production version, I would only buy it if it happened to have exactly the specs I like. With the custom version you can not only get exactly what you want, but probably a little better fit/finish and more pride of ownership, which is really what propels us knife knuts.

So why not forget about wishing for a production version, and get the custom that you know you want?

I'd love to see the Darrel Ralph Madd Maxx go back into production (apologies for the horrible photo quality):

I know, I know, "It's already been done". But the Camillus Madd Maxx still has a strong following and I'm thinking more along the lines of the 3" blade version like the above pictures. It's an excellent urban EDC size (at least for me).

Why not just buy the original design, the AG Russell Folding Sting?

I would like to see the Ralph Harris Tail Lock in a production knife.

Or a drop point Loveless Folder ala Kansei Matsuno

The XM-18 would definitely be interesting, but who should make it? I think a natural choice would be Strider.

But then it would cost more than the original.

 

[H2H907]

Polkowski BullDog.

I second that.

But if it's by CRKT, I'd like them to use G10 scales instead of the plastic they used on the other one.

I agree with kaizen1 , but I would like to see the Darrel Ralph ADX 4" . I know that master cutlery did one, But I'm thinking it would be nice to see a high quality version produced.

I got lucky, and my first choice already made it into production: The Graham Brothers Razel.

 

[Dagon]

Anything by the talented young knifemaker Emanue Esposito, for example:

[Kim Lau]

Maybe a Burchtree Bladeworks Chubbie

 

[steelscout30]

Mr. Hinderer's XM-18, as stated by so many!

Barring that, I would love to see a return of Darrell Ralph's Camillus CUDA Maxx 7.0 with its 7-inch D2 tool steel blade; it's about time somebody gave Lynn Thompson and his glutonously large XL Espada a run for his money.

 

[dumdeedum]

one knife jumped over the XM-18 on my list... the XM-24!

 

[Masteroffajitas]

I wish camm would go back into business....

 

[Sevorius]

Anything from Yuna, especially the Hard 2 and Hard 3. Absolutely love the aesthetics of his knives and the attention to detail. Beautiful and functional.

 

[wutitiz]

Those Emanue Esposito pics are pretty breathtaking--had not heard of him. Thanks for those pics.
