I have the CF version with ZDP/420j steel, and I think the same thing: great knife! Do you have polished your? The bug seems deleted in your beautiful photos...

Very nice. I would go one step further and contour/polish the G10 as well.

Gorgeous knife, I need to learn how to polish like that!
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.

somehow I missed the thread. Great pictures without of doubts. Thank you for sharing.
Great knife. I was really disappointed, when I find out that Spyderco discontinued this variant. IMHO Caly3.5 is amazing and probably more practical, but VG10 Caly3 looks better and has about the same capability.

How many hours do you have into getting the knife polished to that level?
