    does anyone have a sample of this model? how does it compare with the smaller caly's and the police 3? i saw a side-by-side shot of this with the police 3 and it looks like a utilitarian version of the latter: the police with a long clip, the caly 4 with a long leaf. the police with an epee-like handle, the caly 4 with a slightly dolphined handle.

    is it still being made?

    There's been some talk of a C54 Calypso Sprint, but it probably hasn't gotten past the talking stage. Here's a shot of the original C54 and other members of the Calypso family...


    Top to bottom:
    C54 Calypso
    C144 Caly 3.5
    C52 Calypso Jr. Micarta
    C113 Caly 3 CF

    Actually, long time ago, discussing possible variants of Caly3, Sal made a comment there were talks about Caly4, supposed to be smaller than Caly3

    What is up with your carbon fiber? Is that the picture only, or is your modified?

    I suppose you'd say it's just the photo. How CF looks in a photograph depends to some extent on the angle and the lighting.
