Hi Allen,
The Calypso has a 4" cutting edge and weights in at ~3.2 oz.
Here are a couple links to reviews:
http://www.physics.mun.ca/~sstamp/knives/military_calypso_jr.html Oops! This is a Calypso Jr. review. Same quality but different steel - AUS-8 vs. VG-10.

Glad to help out Allen.
I've got a complete set of the micarta Calypsos and love the design.
Sal came up with a teriffic knife with this one. The combination of VG-10 and micarta on the C54s makes for a classy blade that can really cut.
I've seen a C54S out on the web for $81. They're getting more difficult to find nowadays. If your thinking of getting one; do it soon.
Best,
~Drew
