I noticed the grey FRN Calypso Jr is now on the spyderco website. Is this now a regular item in the line up? I remember reading they would be doing a limited run of them but wondered if they decided to make them a regular item. I just received mine and I love it.
 
I have one and love it. But one thing puzzles me. The Calypso Jr. receives universal praise as a cutting tool here on the forum. Gentleman's scalpel, etc. The latest production was a sprint run, right? 1000 or 1200 or something like that? If they're so wildly popular, and relatively few were made, then why are they still available from most internet dealers? :confused:
 
I think a saw posted somewhere that they sold so well that they were added back to regular production.
I also saw that a mat finish CF Jr is about to be released.
 
Because we knife geeks love the Calypso Jr., but the great unwashed do not. This makes us better than them.

Seriously, Sal has said a few times that internet people loves the Calypso Jr., but it's not a great selling model otherwise.
 
It's in regular production for the rest of this year at least. Don't know about '05.
