I thought it would be made in Golden? Hmmm....

What about BD1N? Keeps with the low cost theme of the LWs.

I would be fine with that but I'm not sure that would bring down the cost considerably. And you likely will have a lot of AFI's that would want a "better" steel on the model.

I cannot wait for the Caly 3.5 Lightweight. I'm hoping it has XHP, like the Chaparral.

And I know this is a dream, but I'd LOVE to see a Caly 3 Lightweight one day.

Enablers, the lot of yez. Got one incoming across the pond, and there was much rejoicing (except in my bank account) :p Same. :D The Caly 3 is my favorite model. I regret selling off my orange UKPK several years ago and now feel I've upgraded to red g10, haha. I'd LOVE to see Golden start making lo...

I'm a big fan of the UKPK and would love to see a LC200N Salt model (with yellow FRN). But I'd be interested in most sprints Spyderco would potentially offer.

Although I understand, and agree, with the updated reveal policy, there is a cost to it. It seems like the cool prototypes will be reserved only for people who attend shows or meets and the rest of us will have to be patient in waiting months for the quarterly announcements. It kinda stinks but I th...

I've been one of those pesky UKPK fans that have been asking for a yellow LC200N model for a bit now. But I would still be happy to get a Para 3 LW in LC200N as I wait.

Very much interested in the FRN Caly 3.5 and the FRN Sage. Also, will be eager to see if another UKPK will be released a new steel - I'd like to see yellow FRN and LC200N.

Although I do enjoy rotating my EDC with other models, the Caly design is my favorite. The aesthetics are near perfect, the wire clip has me spoiled, and it feels fantastic in my hand. I'm very interested in the FRN Caly 3.5 that is coming. Ideally, I would like it to be produced in Taiwan or the U....

I would like to see the frn Caly 3.5 by the end of next year.

That would be great. VG10?

A UKPK with a compression lock.

Before I get yelled at - yes, I want an American-made Caly 3.

Caly 3, UKPK, and Caly 3.5. Sal's design feels like it was meant for my hand.

I just got my Caly Jr. in SB and it feels nice. Going to have to carry it for a while.

I'll raise my glass to the Sage 2.

I remember it was my gift to myself for earning my master's degree. So clean and functional. The only improvement I could think of is the addition of a steel insert for over-travel and lock interface.

I need more UKPKs in super steels You and me both...and everyone else in this thread! Amen! I love my S110V UKPK and would like to see the model updated with other steels. Perhaps we can start with M390, M4, or XHP? Personally, I'd love to see a salt version with yellow FRN and an LC200N blade. ;)

I would definitely consider this, Sal. I've been waiting for a Spyderco fixed blade that offered a design like the Mule at a more affordable price point (compared to the Bradley designs). The length and round handle sounds very nice. Do you have any idea what steels would most likely be chosen for t...

A UKPK in K390 sounds good to me. :D Drop point please. Do you think if we keep mentioning it we might get a UKPK in 51200, or Maxamet or K390 or something? To me a US steel would make sense for a US model. Leaf, for me - but my favorite model is the Caly 3. I do agree that it makes sense to see mo...

A UKPK in K390 sounds good to me.

I'm very interested in the new Clip It tools but just cannot justify a purchase of 8cr13mov. I've just had bad luck with it, it's pretty humid here in Houston, and would prefer something with a bit more corrosion resistance. Is BD1 a possibility down the road? Otherwise, the design looks excellent a...

Excellent review. I just received mine recently and have the exact same feelings. The only knock on the knife is the disengagement of the lock as that bar digs into the finger more deeply than other Spyderco lockbacks I own - I'm sure it's a combination of the width of the bar and the strength of th...

I'm a big fan of my UKPK in S110V. I'd like to see another lightweight in yellow FRN with LC200N steel. And to echo others again, I'd like to see additional high end steels used in the blade with different color handles. My favorite design is the Caly, as I've often said, so I'll likely always be ca...
