Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
Missed out on the DLT Hap40 by seconds. It was in my cart, but once I logged in to purchase, it was gone. Oh well.

Nice. Thank you Darby for sharing. Spyderco need to make more dark green knives. :)bearfacedkiller wrote:

Thanks. It's not the end of the world. I picked up a Para 3 Cru-Wear to console myself. Was able to redeemed some DLT points to boot.

Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
I agree Roman. I love this color. Hands down my favorite. I passed on the Worker sprint multiple times and often wish I hadn't. There are not too many dark green G10 knives that will get by me.

Good to see you're socializing the new guy right away. Don't want any fights breaking out in the pack. The little guys can be mean! :D :spyder:bh49 wrote:Nice. Thank you Darby for sharing. Spyderco need to make more dark green knives. :)bearfacedkiller wrote:

Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
Have one ordered finally. Yesterday I would have seen this and felt a bit of stress and remorse at being slow on the uptick. Today I can say beautiful knives! You really do like green.bearfacedkiller wrote:
And to everyone still looking to find one. I believe this sprint is 1200 pieces so there should be plenty for everyone on the first round.

Beautiful collection. What size was the larger Superblue?? Looks like it had a different dad.

Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
There was a Caly3 and a Caly3.5 in Super Blue. I am sure I am not the only one hoping for a Dark Green HAP40 Caly3.5 and I think our chances are quite good.
While my lamination lines are not perfect (not complaining) they are quite good. I will say that based on my Pakkawood Delica and this piece as well as all the other pics I have seen of those two it does seem as though the last couple of runs of laminated blades have been noticeably better than previous runs. Very nice!!!!

Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
I see. All the 3.5 blades look similar length. But that 3.5 SB has a little sleeker looking profile, along with a longer handle (?).
I'm liking the 3.5's in comparison. I still have one of those on back order with the crazy deal possibility.

Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
The 3 and 3.5 SB are very similar in size in hand, I actually prefer the 3.5 but the 3 is still one of my favorite EDC's. A 3.5 HAP40 would be a must have for sure.

Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
I wasnt so impressed with the gaps between the back spacer and steel liners on the 1st one I got. Gaps go all the way up on the lock bar as well, open or closed. I know some of you might not mind this but I am used to better fit & finish from my Spydercos. So I bought another one :)
Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
Are those areas due to uneven heights of the liners and back spacer or gaps between them? If they're uneven heights can sanding them smooth fix it?

Re: Caly 3 HAP40 dropped
No gaps in mine that's one of the first things I look at. 90% of the back I can't even detect a seam at all. Loving this knifeSpider bite wrote:Yea gaps.

Now you have me looking at all mine with liners and backspacer. Thankfully, they're all good!
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!
