You're gonna laugh, but I do miss the good old FRN Caly jr. Maybe a sprint run in H1 and yellow (or orange) FRN?

My vote is for something not likely to get done...an LBK.
Navigator with either CF (smooth or textured) of G10 and deep carry wire clip.
Steel? No preference - whatever would make it appeal to majority of folks.
LBKs need a little more love and the Navigator handle has the best ergos of any of the LBKs - even better than the Dfly (IMHO...). This upgrade would make the perfect gents/office carry knife!!

Lum Chinese ZDP-189 and titanium scales. Call me old fashioned.

It has been mentioned that a Micarta sprint is in the works.

I wouldn't laugh at all. Caly Jr. is a great knife and the fish scale pattern on the handles made it stand out some. Couldn't have the flat grind in H1 though.

Manix2 XL with woodland camo scales and a black blade would look pretty awesome.

Since we are wishing....
A tan CF handle, PE or fully serrated, Military model, in S90V blade steel (stainless blade) with OPERATION IRAQI FREEDOM and either the start and end dates of the war or a scorpion or the crossed scimitars of their "Arch of Triumph" war monument in Baghdad, laser engraved on the blade under the writing.
...I know it would be a "niche" item and not everyone would be interested, but I certainly would. :)
Arc of Triumph :

Sal showed the prototype of the Caly jr. micarta this year in amsterdam, but I'm more exited about the Big Calypso sprint with G-10-scales.
BTW: The Caly jr. sprint was clipless.

Wow!! I haven't even heard anyone even mention this great old classic in quite some time. Hey Brother I loved the C-25 and it's big brother the C-50 both. That earlier Centofante model is one of the older classics from an era gone way by>> but I would sure like to see a C-25 or C-50 in one of the supersteels with G-10 scales. Man you hit that one on the nail head.

That sucks on the Caly Jr being clipless. I'm glad to hear about the Calypso, that's like a dream knife for me.

Or, given that Mr Blonde didn't post photos of it in his Amsterdam show report, it may just be an early concept piece. Features sometimes get changed/added between the prototype and production stages and that happen even more often between the concept model and production stages.
