Sal:

At the last BladeShow, I handled a temperance. The blade was that of the large calypso-vg10, but with the advantage of the compression lock. I have a calypso jr., and I find the vg 10 holds a better edge longer than any of the other new stainless steels. I also find this simple blade shape ideal for most pocket carry tasks. A large calypso ( ala temperance) with a compression lock would be a real must. When will it be out.
 
Can't wait myself. The only pic I've seen of the Temperance had a small blade like the Calypso Jr. Larger blade would be even better. Of course I'd want both

Thanks for the pics Tommi. I also think the leaf shape is the better of the two. Any idea when they will come out?
