Welcome!
The Caly 3 is a great knife. There are some minor physical differences (mostly with the finger choil) but it is definitely a locking UKPK. Also definitely worth picking up any of it's several versions.

I'd love to hear Paul's take on the FRN UKPK as well.
With 75 vote in the Manix2 led by 3. With 100 votes in the UKPK leads by 6.
Our reason is quite satisfied, in 999 cases out of every 1000 of us, if we can find a few arguments that will do to recite in case our credulity is criticized by someone else. Our faith is faith in someone else's faith, and in the greatest matters this is most the case.

Last year at this time it was already in the works...
Again, not trying to be an anus....
No, Sal encouraged us to talk about it earlier in the year but any number of factors might delay the forum knife even assuming there was ever an intent to produce one. I've thought about changing the title to the "next forum knife", but given that we are engaged in wishful thinking the distinction didn't seem that important.
IMO, this conversation helps rather than hinders the process for the next forum knife. Some disagree.

If it stays close perhaps we should develop two separate preferences by selecting colors for both and, in the case of the UKPK, blade style and type of steel. One of the reasons I switched my vote to the UKPK was the possibility of raising the price in order to get a really unique steel given that the base price is so low to start.

My thoughts exactly. Maybe the new Carpenter steel Sal just mentioned? In DP FFG? WooHoo!
