It would be cool to see an new ATR

Such an underrated knife. Not sure how they could improve on it , but would like to see them try. It was the Knife of the Year in 2003 with the titanium version.

They did the ATR a few years ago. It was a standard compression lock vs the original's frame lock/compression lock. I don't think it did very well.

Yea I kinda ignore that one, pretend it didn't really happen.
Now that I think about it I shouldn't be to harsh to judge, I have never seen one for sale on the secondary markets, I rarely buy new. Would like to see one in person. Not sure if even the original was a good seller, I seem to like the weirder knives, and I do like the ATR's.

Well that's the real problem with some of these re-issues. Folks say they need a Lum tanto or an ATR or Slysz Bowie and then when it comes out they're like Oh it's too old/too meh/too expensive and it gets put in the didn't sell well file.
