Well, I'm in for 2:
CALYPSO Jr., PLAIN Edge, Dark GREEN with White Spyder inlay. (I have left the inlay to the choice of Spyderco)

We should start counting or Sal wont know how many there is to justify the build..

Ok,I have voted for the endura in the other post but as a 2nd choice I think the calypso jr would be great............Just got to thinking I do not have a calypso jr so I guess it would be a better forum knife for me than the endura.
Please make a choice so maybe it can be under the xmas tree!

Guys,

Adding an inlay to an FRN handled knife would require making entirely new molds. The tooling cost would be massive ($30,000+), and IMO is not realisic for a sprint run. A different colour would be most realistic, except that the minimum size for an FRN sprint is 500 pieces, which is probably too large for Forum edition.

Carlos,
If the tooling costs are THAT high, then I woul have to aggree with you. My thoughts were simply, to keep the FORUM model seperate, the inlay would show it apart from the other models very quickly.
Afterall, unless everyone has a lot of money, we must be careful for what we ask.
