What knife would you like to see next from CPK?

I think I mentioned it elsewhere, but how about something akin to a skinner/bird & trout/every day carry knife with a blade in the 3.5-4.5" range and built with relatively thinner stock? Something that disappears when carried vertically or horizontally on the belt, or in the waistband, and straddles the roles of a neat and tidy hunting knife and an everyday carry fixed blade. Something pointy enough to pierce a hide to start skinning but with enough belly to skin without inadvertently piercing hide a second time.

Similar to a skinner shape. EDC2 length(blade vs handle) is perfect. Slightly less ?tall? and less belly more of a drop point would be perfect in my uneducated opinion. Breaking through block walls or shooting with a rifle is awesome and all but a more delicate version hear and there would be fantastic. My edc generally strips wire, pops zip ties, opens boxes, trims fingernails, etc. as much as anything else. Your D3V is plenty robust enough with less mass to accomplish daily tasks. When I need a bigger/better tool I go get one. The edc is all about using what your carrying if it is sufficient if not go get the right tool. Not every knife needs an indestructible guarantee. My dumbass broke more than one tip before I learned to go get a screwdriver or a pry bar. I found CPK less than a year ago, I own four and have two in the dek pre-order. I love the product. Value vs price is outstanding. Something that can be carried both in the office and the field would be perfect. Just my humble opion.

Maybe an EDC model with a 3 5" blade that is slightly pointy-er.

I would be very excited for something along these lines. I LOVE the EDC handle... but I just didn't find myself using it as much as other knives due to the deep belly and stout blade stock for the size. It's definitely a me issue, not a design issue. It's just what and how I cut.
