Favorite 2018 Sprint
My favorite Sprint was the PPT.
Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
Didn´t buy any 2018 sprint. But totally overlooked your post and thought to bring it up the page, since maybe many others (who actually DID buy 2018 sprints) might have missed it too...
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

Pretty sure the all stainless Kopa was the only Sprint I bought last year but it's definitely my favorite.

Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
As usual, they are always gone by the time I get onto them... so I didn't get any.

Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
I'd say the Calypso Jr. At a price that made it possible for me to get one user and one cabinet primadonna.
I was a little disappointed in the "Global collab Kopa" which, i felt deviated too much from the O.G. model..

Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
Didn't buy any. The sprints that came out weren't models that caught my eye. Maybe this year?
Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
Picked up a few PM2s, so out of those the CRUWEAR. But that's too easy. Every PM2 is a favorite.
Aside from a PM2, it would have to be the Native.

CF/S90v PPT Perrin. Easily!
PPT is my favorite Spyderco model of all time. So I was happy to see such a high end variant come out!

Calypso Jr sprint
Honorable mention to the teal Delica exclusive. Never really thought about a teal knife before it dropped, but I actually like the color a lot and hope it's used again in the future.

Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
It was a dealer exclusive not a sprint run, but the only one I bought last year was the Para 3 in 52100 and it is my favorite.

Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
Caly Jr. I was so excited I bought two, one to use and one to put away in case something happened to the original. After a few months it just seemed wrong to have a perfectly good knife sitting unused, so I gave it to my brother. He loves it too.

Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
Did not pick up a sprint, but totally scored a Knifecenter PM2 in Cruwear, a Para 3 in 4v from St Nick's, Para 3 from BBS and a Pakkawood Delica. Very blessed this past year lol :spyder:
Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
scored a Shabaria Sprint.. Wasn't sure it'd be available in Canada, but Blades Canada got it in stock in December...

Have you embellished it at all, Paul? I was thinking about that the other day.

Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
I have to agree with a lot of you here. The Calypso Jr in Superblue has to be my favorite. I’m new to Spyderco as of 2017, and I was very happy to get ahold of one of these long since discontinued models. I adore it, despite a lot of design(jimping? tip up carry? fish grip?)/QC flaws. I can’t wait to find a burgundy one for a decent price!
That said I have had a blast with the Para 3 this year. Too many sprints to pick a single one.

Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
It will have to be a toss between the Calypso Jr and the Rex 45 Millie
Re: Favorite 2018 Sprint
The HAP40 Wharncliffe Delica with Burnt Orange scales... Hands down!
The Calypso Jr. in Superblue comes in at number two.
The M4 Para 3 with natural G10 from BHQ was my favorite exclusive.

Not yet, still haven't settled on who to have engrave it, but I'm sure I'll get one done this year.
