Thanks for the help Ted!!
Nice looking knife. I really like the wire clip. I wonder if that clip would fit on my Dodo??

I dislike the clip on the Caly III, as it is the same as on the UKPK, but the lock makes it ever so smooth. The Caly III should be the C100 model IMO, like the C01 Worker it is a pure utility EDC that is appreciated by many knife users.

Holy Smokes!!! As many of you may know from Bladeforums, I've been away from the knife scene for quite some time. I drop by the Spyderco forum this morning, to see what's new in Spydieland, and I discover this thread. The Calypso3 is exactly what I've been looking for the last 5 years. This knife looks PERFECT. I'm totally blown away.

Now, can somebody give me some more info this knife. Weight? Release date? I feel like my Strider SNG purchase may have been somewhat premature..... I'll take two of these Calypsos, the day they become available. Okay, maybe three.

This forum didn't make my day. It made my whole year!!!!

Hey Wouter,

Why do you dislike the clip? Is it the clip itself, or just the wire clip on the model?

Also, I like your C100 idea... ;)

I have to echo the sentiments of those who have said 'this is the knife i have been looking for' or at least it looks like it ;)

Is there any more information on the release date yet?

:spyder: :)

It is amazing knife. I prefer VG10 to S30V, I love G10, wire clip does not bother me. How long do we have to wait?

one of the many things I like about s30v better is that it is an AMERICAN steel. I will always prefer AMERICAN steel to any other out there.

That is true. I usually prefer anything AMERICAN made. I had two knives with S30V and both blades were defective. I spend about two hours working with first blade, but no success and I returned to a dealer. Second was a replacement of first one and also blade had chips, but after resharpening it come out OK. I have 6 knives with VG10, so far no problem. Talking about American made steels, my preferences, as today is 154CM.
Regards,
R
PS. caly3 I would buy with any of these steels. And this is what this thread about. Right?
