That is what I am interested in.
Keep in mind though, Sal mentioned working on a more refined version. Will be the Caly 4 I believe.

Caribbean SE... although what disappoints me most is there was talk of a model with a longer blade utilizing the original scales, I suppose that won't be happening now.
Re: What Spyderco that was DISCONTINUED would you like to see back.
I find it kinda funny that the Police is a giant-ish "laws be darned" knife and the Rookie was a very law compliant 3 inch knife.
If there were a new Rookie based on the police 4, I think I'd rather it be over 3".

I always say the Hossum fixed blades.

Re: What Spyderco that was DISCONTINUED would you like to see back.
The Rookie's blade is slightly over 3". Enough for it to be considered non-compliant for a 3" blade length limit, if a LEO were so meticulous that he/she actually measured it. One of the reasons the Delica's blade (for example) is slightly shorter than 3".

Re: What Spyderco that was DISCONTINUED would you like to see back.
Titanium is lighter weight than steel, so they can make a whole Ti knife and have it be just as light (or nearly as light) as a liner + scale knife. The frame lock is arguably more secure than the liner lock, simply because there is more material in place of the blade. It is a simpler knife, which relies on fewer parts. It feels real nice.
I'm happiest with Micarta and Tool Steel.
Top four in rotation: K390 + GCM PM2, ZCarta Shaman, Crucarta PM2, K390 + GCM Straight Spine Stretch.

Oh? Sign me up.
In the meantime, I’d like a Catcherman, but with a detachable pocket-clip. I wonder, though, if Sal and Eric are up for a new FRN mold…

Re: What Spyderco that was DISCONTINUED would you like to see back.
I’d like to see a Catcherman updated with a detachable pocket clip as well. Maybe a “Catcherman 2” could be a solution to that? I see interest in a Catcherman expressed with regularity, so I would guess there is still a viable market for another one.wrdwrght wrote: ↑Mon Dec 05, 2022 12:32 pmOh? Sign me up.

That would be my second pick.

Whale Rescue Blade. I can’t imagine that it will ever happen unless there’s a commercial or military contract but I can dream!
