Hey Sal, any chance on making an FRN version of the Caly line, with the same colours as the FRN Delicas and Enduras? I'd think this would be my ultimate EDC if this were to ever come into production.
 
Don't you think it would be a little too similar to the Delica/Endura as it is? I'd rather ask for a one of the older Calypso models to be brought backl for a sprint. Those FRN molds are pretty spendy to make from what I've read.
 
I would be fine with either of these. I love the blade shape and size of the newer Caly, but i also like the the older handle of the original calypso. Maybe a mixture of the two?

I also not sure how much sense financially for Spyderco would make FRN line for caly family. Sprint of original Calypso jr. most likely will satisfy all afi needs at least a few years. It took a at least couple years for last run to became "hard to find"

Roman is right. Although I wish we could see an updated FRN version of the Caly Jr, odds are that will not happen. The good news is that there has been talk of a Caly Jr sprint run with micarta scales. I'm very excited for that. :D
 
Meh. I hate to sound like a curmudgeon, but I am more of a G-10 guy. I like the color variation, but I would rather see it in G-10 that FRN. I am not an FRN hater, but I do not go out of my way to buy a model in FRN that I want if I can also get it in G-10.
 
I have to agree with everyone else above that says that it would be too similar to the existing colored Delicas and Enduras.
