Caly in HAP40?
Re: Caly in HAP40?
burnt orange G10 or fiberglass weave a-la GB Air and a laminate HAP40 blade, that would be a 100% buy now knife!

Re: Caly in HAP40?
Considering how much love the Caly series gets on the forum here its strange that the sales were so poor. I have all three versions of the Caly 3.5 and absolutely love them. Any kind of new Caly would be a must have for me. Spyderco could sell a 3.5 with pink G10 and I'd still buy it. Not that theres anything wrong with pink
Most recently acquired: Military 2, Paramilitary 2 Tanto x2, YoJUMBO, Swayback, Siren, DLC Yojimbo 2, Native Chief, Shaman S90V, Para 3 LW, Ikuchi, UKPK, Smock, SUBVERT, Amalgam, Para 3 CTS-XHP, Kapara, Paramilitary 2 M390

This is good idea. If I cannot get my Native or CAly in CPM M4, Caly 3 or Caly 3.5 in HAP40 will do the trick. Laminated blade will be fine.

Re: Caly in HAP40?
Would LOVE a Hap40 Caly 3.5!! Endura has been a workhorse. I'm kicking myself for not getting a vg-10 Caly 3.5 when they were available at less than $100. I use my SB Caly 3.5 regularly but I'm a little afraid to use it for work because of its high replacement cost. I'd have to get 2 hap40s for future use!

Nah, but maybe we could hope for another slim and slender model like the JD Smith! :)

Re: Caly in HAP40?
Now thats what I'm talking about speed, I've been Jonesing for a foliage sprint for a while now but the don't pop up very often. A new sprint would be a slam dunk.SpeedHoles wrote:Donut wrote:Now that's really wishing since the Chokwe was never produced in Japan.captnvegtble wrote:While we're wishing...

Ahhh... that's right. I forgot where the Chokwe was produced.Donut wrote:Now that's really wishing since the Chokwe was never produced in Japan.captnvegtble wrote:While we're wishing... Can we get a Chokwe sprint in HAP40 or SuperBlue?
Re: Caly in HAP40?
OK guys, one thing at one time. Make your wish lists, but for now let's concentrate on HAP40 Caly3.5 and Caly3.

Re: Caly in HAP40?
I'm watching this thread closely! I didn't even think it was an option given the current situation with the maker but if it's even possible, then I'm so for it! :D
Now, the CF bolstered Damascus 3.5 was asked for first, well before anyone here heard of HAP40 (well, most of us)... Just sayin'

Re: Caly in HAP40?
Sorry Roman! Bright side is that if Sal and company are able and willing to run a HAP40 sprint, then the dream for someday seeing this king of Caly 3.5's can live on brother!! :Dbh49 wrote:Paul, Please, stop this. In the old country people were saying that you are putting a salt on my open wounds .
