Cricket Handles?

[Knife Knut]

What are the all the different handle variations on the cricket? Specifically was there ever a G-10 run?

Many of you forumites have been SpyderNuts longer than I have.

I am thinking about getting a pair of crickets, one SpyderEdge and one PlainEdge; Carbon fiber is right out because of price, and it is reputed to be slippery.

Here are the ones I know of:

Black Zytel

Pink "

Carbon Fiber

No there has not been a production version of the g/10 handle on the cricket.
We have done FRN, Aluminum, carbon fiber.
Don't hold your breath on seeing a g/10 cricket.

I.K.I.N.J.A.K. !!!!!!

I love my *Tufram* criket... may get a FRN/Plain to go with it.

We all start with 10 fingers. Those with Spydies have 9 to spare, Still need a thumb. Good thing I still have 8 to spare...

Just a question.
Some people call the coating on the aluminum cricket 'Almite', while others call it 'Tufram'.
Can someone maybe clarify this?
Thanks,
Ted

someone told me it was a proto of a g-10 cricket is it true??

I want all of them

[patogordo]

sorry, Knife nut if you can find a carbon fiber cricket buy it because its a rare find

I want all of them

Ted, those that refer to the aluminum handle Cricket as "almite"-coated are not correct.

The aluminum is coated with Tufram. It is charcoal grey in color, and has a matte finish and texture.

Almite has a smooth finish and texture.

Scolby,
Thanks!

Nah, Patogordo, am not interested in collector's pieces at this time; I like to be able to use my tools. Besides, I am trying to modify my tip up reflexes into tip down reflexes.

Transposed tip up/down; most(all?)of the biggest Spydies are tip down, and I will be purchasing more of these as sisters to my G-10 Police, but the cricked might be better around sheeple.

I am suprised there was never even a sprint run of G-10 Crickets.
