What knife would you like to see next from CPK?

Belated happy 4th to you too Adam. I'm afraid that the EDC is not really suitable for kitchen duties as I had also found out a while ago (not that I bought it for that reason). As you have alluded to, the EDC compresses and squishes the organic material it finds at its blade's edge. The famous Nathan Skinner is that light saber but alas I was not born as Casinostocks on BFC when Nathan was selling them south of Buck Fifty back in 2013-2014 :(
 
Dammit Trev! Now you made me feel fat so time to stop procrastinating for losing that final 5 lb. Well, really 10 lb. :D
 
Wish we had a Heavy chopper, instead of behemoth. Got a Sk then Behemoth.. too long for me.

Btw, any est. price on the BC?
 
What about a simple neck knife type of thing, something like a Becker BK11?

4V unless the stain resistance of D3V or OD2/PSF27 (as Adam suggested) is preferred. With an integral cap lifter, it can open a beer without risking the edge or the hand, chamfered edges (aside from the cutting edge), simple kydex fold over. Maybe a 2.5" - 2.75" blade and a 5.5" OAL, built for a 3 finger grip.

Mostly being built for easier use, Wharncliffe or semi wharncliffe, thin ground with high wear resistance alloy, cap lifter, and the kydex slip can be drilled four times, two near the tip for neck carry, and two on the side of various belt and pocket carry methods (small tek lok, paracord wrap, pocket clip, leather belt loop, belt lanyard, et al).
Designed as a skeleton knife for thin carry.

Comparatively easy to produce aside from programming for it, less required on the finishing end and no handle materials need to be made. Just knock out the steel and sharpen.
Easier and quicker than most of the other models, but it gains in daily utility, while opening up your customer base to those that need a sub 3" blade and a nonlocking knife.

What NJBillK said :) . Simple and utilitarian! Though I may prefer OD2/PFS27 or a stainless such as Elmax for inside-the-shirt neck carry. Unless D3V can handle the long-term prospect of being held against a sweaty chest :confused: for most of the day (I haven't tested D3V in such a fashion yet :oops:). 5.5 up to 6.25 max OAL. A perfect transition piece for those moving from folders to fixed EDC. And the perfect discrete carry for everyone else :thumbsup:
 
D3v FK please.

Seems there aren't enough of these out in the wild...or I just haven't been able to figure out where to find one...
 
we now have a heavy duty field knife, and no not heavy duty field knife. That's something I'd like to change...
 
maybe a light EDC and heavy EDC as well? Along with a medium EDC, of course :)
 
Nathan indicated a slightly smaller/lighter version of the FK is in the works - within the next year.

Hoping for something in the .160/4.25"
range.
(Admit I'm new here and dunno if maybe I overlooked a model).
