Let me start off by saying in no way is this a sort of petition to have more of these made- KAI is doing awesome stuff with these and they're currently on top of the production knife world IMO. This is just more of a thread to be creative and talk about cool ideas you have for this topic/your dream knife. Just a place to fantasize, never hurts to dream, right?

Ill start this one off. I personally think the 030X is the best production knife on the market to date. But a LE version would be amazing for me. Start with a sandblasted, CC style lockbar side, to give it that sebenza like texture. Put on a black lock bar stabilizer disk and sandblasted titanium clip to match, but keep it the same style its always had. Have a smooth, contoured lightning strike carbon fiber scale to go with the titanium side. Then for the blade, have a composite stonewashed 14C28N/ DLC coated Bohler K294 edge. Ive heard this steel at around 63 RC is up to 17% more wear resistant than S110V. Plus its a new, supposed to be state of the art super steel, and who doesnt want to try those out? The 0560 CBCF is my favorite knife to date, But I also love the 0300 series, and I think this would be an awesome limited addition version to go with my 0560CBCF (I plan on getting a production 0560 to go with my 0300 down the road.).

Lets hear your dream le knife and your current favorite you own/have owned.
 
Ti frame lock Blur, unassisted with a flipper. Stonewashed composite M390 blade. Please and thanks! ;)
 
Composite zt0200 with d2 cutting edge and damascus spine, like he 777, and a carbon fiber grip, also with the d2 coated, it would have titanium liners and the spacers would be violet
 
I agree with solidO, except without a flipper. Because IMHO, it's not a blur with a flipper.
 
A 0566, carbon fiber handles, with a solid CPM-10V blade at 64 RC....simple....yet effective...and it would scream use me!
 
ZT makes terrific knives, but I don't own any at the moment. I used to own a 0200 but I sold it because carrying it used to make me feel like the Titanic felt after it hit the iceberg. ;)

My dream ZT is a premium, scaled-down version of the 0560 akin to a 3" XM-18 with a Titanium handle and no AO. And I'd take a serious look at practically any folder ZT decides to make that weighs 4 ounces or less and gives knives like the Southard a run for their money. I'm not holding my breath waiting for that to happen, however.
