Caly 3 HAP40 Green G-10 Sprint:
Wow. This thing is just fantastic, just like it was at Blade Show. It's beautifully-made, the color of the G-10 is great, and the blade is great. I've said this before, but I've wanted a Caly 3 for a while, held off on one and then it was discontinued, and now I've snapped this one up. Usually, for these posts, I'm reporting on new models that I'm not actually purchasing, but this one is different. I'm super excited to have it, and I think others will too. QC/F&F seem very good, better than the Jess Horn I think, and I'm more than happy with it.

Para 3 CRUWEAR Grey G-10 Sprint:
First, it's a Para 3, so I'm not going over the ergos and such. Also, yes, the G-10 is definitely lighter than the G-10 on the Para Military 2 CW Sprint (which I own, so I know :p ). I'm not sure if you're looking for a matching set it'll be exactly that in terms of color, but it's still a good-looking handle. Of course, it's CRUWEAR, which is great, so I'd say this is instantly the best Para 3 you can get. Arguably, with this steel, this is one of the very best 3-inch Spyderco knives you can get, period.

Re: New Models Dropped: Caly 3 HAP40 Sprint, Para 3 CRUWEAR Sprint
2 anticipated sprints in the wild today!
I was really hoping for the darker grey like the PM2 cruwear, the Para3 looks almost off white. Is that light in person?

Re: New Models Dropped: Caly 3 HAP40 Sprint, Para 3 CRUWEAR Sprint
I am expecting it closer to 3 oz as the the vg10 caly3 in g10 was 3oz.
Re: New Models Dropped: Caly 3 HAP40 Sprint, Para 3 CRUWEAR Sprint
I would really like to know what it weighs.
Re: New Models Dropped: Caly 3 HAP40 Sprint, Para 3 CRUWEAR Sprint
Nice knives, thanks for posting the pics.
Just realized that CRU-WEAR was again spelled CRUWEAR on this one, despite the following: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=74077&p=1145915&hil ... r#p1145915

Re: New Models Dropped: Caly 3 HAP40 Sprint, Para 3 CRUWEAR Sprint
They had the standard 2 come in (one of which I purchased), but they'd already ordered 6 more, so you'll definitely get one. I called dibs on one of the first ones a long time ago. :ptwinboysdad wrote:Pat,

Re: New Models Dropped: Caly 3 HAP40 Sprint, Para 3 CRUWEAR Sprint
I just got mine yesterday, and it doesn't feel any heavier than my Caly 3 with carbon fiber handle, which I believe is just around 3 ounces. If I have a chance, I'll weigh the new one at the Post Office and post the result.twinboysdad wrote:Also, is that Caly REALLY 4 ounces??

Re: New Models Dropped: Caly 3 HAP40 Sprint, Para 3 CRUWEAR Sprint
Thanks Todd. When I first saw the 4 ounce spec on the Caly 3, I couldn't understand how the G10 scales could possibly add an ounce to the weight of the knife. Obviously they didn't. So now my question is, where did the 4 ounce figure come from? Every website that offered the Caly 3 for sale had it listed at 4 ounces. Did Spyderco release the wrong spec by mistake?

Re: New Models Dropped: Caly 3 HAP40 Sprint, Para 3 CRUWEAR Sprint
I was wondering,seeing that the Caly3 is a sprint run. Are any of you,using your Caly as an edc, or is it a safe queen only ?
