I'll be carving with a Spyderco K03 and an old German horn handled slicer. I think I'll carry my C54 large Calypso as backup.

Have a great day everyone.

Jeeze, get over it. Spyderco limited the preorder to 2 knives per forum member. What they do with them is their business. Not to be drooled over by people who didn't put up and definitely are not shutting up.

You have a picture of one? Ramco Laguiole? I must see one as here is another model I have never seen. Then we can decide :D , but just based on the name I feel it should be included! :rolleyes: Here's mine, I consider the C25 or C50 to be better pumpkin carvers. http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-...
