The Calypso Sr does have the VG-10 Steel.

9 Spydies down - how many to go?

For pure engineered cutting ablitiy my vote it for .....
Calypso.

I own both large and both small examples. I've handled the
Smith. Without any reservation at all the Calypso wins.

The Calypso has very, very few peers in pure cutting power.
