Would be nice if the Ayoob and Cliff Jumper both came this year.

Surprise me! ...or a Caly 3.

I'll say it again, please bring back the Caly 3!!! Doc Dan's recent post on the Caly 3 is 3 pages of people ooogggling over how great this one is. It would be a certain and easy sell for Spyderco.

I dream of:

an original Spyderco steel-oil suitable for all spydies,

something in burgund for my girlfriend,

a European subsidiary of Spyderco, that provides all Europe with a similar availability and prices like in the US,

something like P4 with a steel as edge retaining as Maxamet AND as corrosion resistant as LC200N and easy to sharpen.

TL;DR Must jump on just three for 2021

I’ve become much less driven, much more opportunistic in the nature of my wishes. Sitting on a pile of Spydies makes this newfound perspective much easier to take on.

I’m now genuinely relieved when the year’s Catalog/Reveals offer only a couple of models I absolutely must have. I have steeled myself against FOMO.

To help, I’ve added other categories to compensate for misses in Category 1. I dare say these categories have made me more curious about Spyderco’s past.

Wish Category 1 (FOMO-prone): 2021’s pump as currently primed
LIl’ Native slipjoint
Micarta Cruwear PM2
K390 Stretch

Wish Category 2 (no FOMO): Disco’d drops now wanted (but initially declined during my 10 years here)
Terzuola Double Bevel (in spite of neutral blade-angle)
Elmax PM2
Cruwear Military Model

Wish Category 3 (no FOMO): “Golden Era” models I want to find
Ansø Rock Lobster
Dyad Jr.
Poliwog
Salsa

Wish Category 4 (potential FOMO): Steels I still want to try
3V
4V and/or Vanadis 4E
15V
Vanax

Wish Category 5 (no FOMO): Models/features calling me
SE Ayoob (imminent; thanks JD)
SE Ulize
SE Breeden Captain
SE Caribbean XL (CQId detent)
Sequoia
Undimpled Schemmp Tuff
1mm blade-stock experiments
Edge-to-handle experiments

[Bern.Haz]

Lc200n UK PenKnife Titanium.

Oh, yes! I like that!

Nothing on my wish list. Bought a pink delica and an Endela wharncliff for myself this month. I'll see what comes out in the next months. Apart from an unobtainable p'kal there is nothing that i'm waiting for.
