LC200N Salt 3.5

That would work for me as well. Love the 3.5 design. For years, my most carried Spydie.

YES thank you, 3.5 please. Bolsters with any color polished linen micarta. XHP or other stainless is good with me. I'd buy 2 or 3 in a heartbeat (if I could get them). These would sell out the quickest. The 3.5 is one of Sal's finest masterpieces.

Lot of great suggestions here, guess I'd go with the CF Chaparral. Classy gentlemen's knife, carries well, great steel, and wire clip. Lightweight and a lot of cutting power. Maybe engrave their names or date as an added touch. A gift and event they will always remember.

Thought I'd replied to this thread before, appears not. When not spending time with grandkids, I'm fishing in St Augustine or Daytona, or Cedar Key (great oysters too) or I'm in the Keys fishing and diving. Home base is in the woods of north central Florida. This is a great forum.

SuperBlue Caly jr at NationalKnives!

I don't know why, but I had to buy another one of these...

Me three

Must be nice to catch those out of a kayak. We usually have to run 15-20 miles for tuna. They just changed the regs in Florida almost makes it not worth going. Last time my wife and I went we caught a bunch'o nice footballs. All 5-7lbs. Great on the grill. Yes the Waterway works well. :) Thanks Lance.

The earth must be flat, I've fallen off a few times......and always picked up by a Friend.

If you sat or laid down on a couch or back in a recliner look there. Over the years, I've lost my 3.5 twice, both times in the couch. First time it took a few weeks to find may have been good as I carried multiple Spydies during the period of mourning. :( Second time it was lost I called my daughter...

Another year that makes the "Knife of the Year" pick really difficult. After reading the posts about the Caribbean and seeing the black dyed scales, I regret not getting one. Just couldn't get past the bumblebee look. Maybe at heart I'm a fixed blade fool, but I agree with others here. My Waterway s...

Most of the people I know have used peanut oil for frying turkeys That’s why all the stores in our area stock the gallon and three gallon containers around the holidays. Works well for frying all seafood too.

We've done the same for years, big bird, always with oyster stuffing. Mashed taters, gravy, green beans, squash casserole (onions, bacon, sour cream cream cheese and sharp American) homemade cranberry orange relish, cranberry nut bread, pecan pie (my wife makes the absolute best) and my son wanted a...

I really like the Taichung logo's, my favorite. Also seems they would help deter fakes.

For me, the 3.5 is almost the perfect edc. IMO one of Sal's best designs. Please keep it thin, with scales that are easy on the pocket, and the wire clip. Also prefer a stainless steel. My zdp rusts very quickly around saltwater (same day) Would like to see a lightweight model as I already have othe...

The Stretch has the same blade length with longer grip area (sans choil) so if you're in need of a longer handle the Stretch might be the way to go. For me the ergos on the Caly 3.5 are perfect and it is tough to beat in terms of blade:handle ratio...even beats out the Kapara.

Ditto.

I'll likely buy this regardless of steel. Sure would be nice to know what steel will be used. Love my 3.5's, most carried knife.

For me 3.5-4" is the "best" size for general edc. The Caly 3.5 is just right. (how do they get so much blade in there?) The Para and Millie also get a fair amount of carry time. A lightweight Caly 3.5 with LC would make my day.....please.

Not going to lie this is a fun knife. Reminds me of when I was a kid and I had glow in the dark plastic stars on my ceiling. Makes me smile :) Funny you should say that, we left those same stars on the ceiling of my daughter's bedroom. Probably 20 + years old. Brings a smile when we look at them. :)

Thought I'd bump this thread for those that might want one of these. GITD still in stock at National knives

Where are all of these 20CV votes coming from??

#voterfraud!

A lot of people prefer stainless blades. Generally less maintenance, especially if around saltwater.
