Some of us love this model and I bet it will sell quite well in SPY27 and cobalt blue frn handle. A sprint maybe ?

if it gets brought back I hope they ditch the sharpening notch.
May you find peace in this life and the next.

I would buy this for sure. I love my Caly Jr's, possibly more than any other FRN Spydie. Of all the variants, ZDP is still the peak I've experienced for edge retention but good old VG-10 is hard to beat for a stain resistant steel. Could we possibly see these Caly Jr's in SPY27, with teeth?

Hi Marius,

Frankly, I'm not pleased with the Caly progress thus far. I had hoped to have all 4 variations well into production last year.

I have one SE calypso jr. and it is a fabulous knife. I keep it nib but I would definitely like to have one for use.

In hand it really reminds me of chaparral.

I'm sorry to this, many of us are still hoping for the reintroduction of the caly family. I know I'm in for multiple.

Fingers crossed 🤞🏼, a little 🍀 and we'll have them sooner or later.

Thanks, Sal.
