Sal- If the Caly Jr. molds are still around it would be a great sprint run for K390 in dark grey, but with a deeper choil on the blade section and wire clip.

Hi Skidoosh,

The mods you mentioned mean new tooling. Also, I don't know if the maker can work with K390.

Dragonfly and delica would be amazing! But I would probably buy a delica and dragonfly in any any steel

Dfly in any high carbon, high carbide steel is a must have for me. ZDP and Hap40 are great.

I mentioned it in the k390 urban thread, and u will say it again, any of the maniago offerings would be fine. Preferably a pingo... Or a spy-dk... Or a roadie! :p

But that is just me and I realize those models only suit a minority of people.

Hi everyone.
Been reading the forum for a while, but I just have to support the Pattada for K390. A fantastic steel for a fantastic model, and it's produced in Europe. Maybe in some multi-colored G-10?
Or, on an unrelated note - the Pattada's SKU is C204 - maybe a sprint in CTS-204P?

Spyderco made a k390 Pingo. It's available for sale on the edge Matters forum. You could also probably find one on the secondary market.
Most recently acquired: Military 2, Paramilitary 2 Tanto x2, YoJUMBO, Swayback, Siren, DLC Yojimbo 2, Native Chief, Shaman S90V, Para 3 LW, Ikuchi, UKPK, Smock, SUBVERT, Amalgam, Para 3 CTS-XHP, Kapara, Paramilitary 2 M390
Grail Paramilitary 2 M390 X 2! ACHIEVED!!

I know about that one... Seems like I am too stupid to still find it for sale though... That's why I thought a generally available version would be nice.

I ended up getting the FRN urban. I like it, love the K390 but would still like a lock.

Do you know where on that forum to look? I've never been there at all, but I'd love to get a k390 Pingo.
