Product Description
A foundry is a workshop for casting metal, which is why the name of this unique folder makes perfect sense. A collaborative effort between two industry titans in Spyderco and Carpenter, the Foundry features a stout 3.3-inch clip-point blade made from CTS XHP—which is similar to 440C but harder, giving it better edge retention Read More

Thanks again, Massdrop, for feeding my knife addiction.

Can I make a suggestion for a couple of future Spyderco Massdrop knives: the Copilot and the Lava. I have a Copilot, from way back when they were first produced, and it's a great little knife, very ergonomic and compact, a perfect EDC knife. A version with one of the newer blade steels and Ti scales would be lovely. I no longer carry mine in case I lose it, as I did the next suggestion, I could never replace it As would a Lava, a stunning knife, designed by Chad Los Banos, again a very ergonomic knife which feels really good in the hand and is again a good EDC knife. I had one, took me ages to find it, tracked it down to a collector, then managed to lose it somewhere while out walking.

OK... what you're suggesting now is a dealer-exclusive sprint of knives that have been discontinued for almost a decade or more. MD did an exclusive Delica, but, it's a Delica. The Seki City maker may not even have the tooling in place to make either of those knives. Also, due to legal and cultural considerations, Spyderco only recently was able to cost-effectively use S30V in Japan; it may be cost-prohibitive (esp. on a sprint) to import a European steel like K390.
I'm not saying it can't be done, but I very seriously doubt Spyderco would be doing a DE sprint with MD for knives that old.
dplafollIt's a suggestion, is all; it's up to Spyderco to say whether they can or will do it. I'd love to see them do it, the CoPilot is pretty much an iconic little knife, something very much like it, only with a ceramic blade, is described by William Gibson in his book 'Virtual Light', and would be a perfect modern EDC knife, the only reason I don't carry mine now, or my mate who also has one, is we're both afraid of losing them; I know he's absolutely up for buying one as well should a new version be made available via Massdrop, and I'd dearly love to get a replacement for the Lava I lost, that knife is so beautifully designed to fit in the hand, ergonomically it's one of the best knives I've ever owned.

Man that is one good looking knife. Good work horse steel I do believe.

If it was a titanium or carbon fiber handle I would be all over this. This is not to troll the knife by the way. I'm just giving massdrop my own preference.

abbazaba$10 less than the next cheapest I could find and $30 or more less than most. Seems like a good deal for this specific knife. Now if the comment is about the value of the knife, well, that's subjective and I don't have a strong opinion.

SmCaudataNo I was talking about the actual weight of 5.3oz. My personal cut off is 4oz for an EDC knife.
