warpspeed Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 Holy Crap Lynn!! That's too cool. I have a couple in the drawer, but nothing like that. I like the rainbow ones. Perhaps an early fathers day present is in order....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRD Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 That's bizarre, Duane. Years ago I was looking to get a Spyderco Endura or something and the place I called to order it from was out but the guy had a few pre-production knves in with micarta handles that he thought I might like, so I got one of them. It was only called X43545 or something like that. I freaking loved it. After a while I wanted to get a new edge on it and have it refurbed, so I sent it to Spyderco with a letter telling them how much I loved the thing. They sent it back in 100% shape with a letter telling me that the knife had entered regular production as the Calypso Jr. Then I lost it! Or I thought I did, so I got a new Jr. to replace it...then I found my original one It sometimes gets paired with a BM710S or a CRKT Krawford Casper. But I love that little X234873 (aka. Calypso Jr.)...which I hear they discontinued! - Gabe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Snyder Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 for work (schoolteacher) I've traded in the SpyderCo Walker for a micarta handled Al Mar with the Hawk style blade, and a small SAK.... for most casual carry a Benchmade large Emerson CQC7... for special occasion a Reeve large Sebenza...

JT Johnson Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 Well after reading this thread I went ahead and order a Kershaw Scallion w/aluminum green handles for 38.97 shipped. My dad gave me a buck 110, but I don't know if it is legal to carry in IL since anything over 3 inches is illegal. Can't wait till the knife arrives.

Bruce Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Have carried a Chris Reeve large Sebenza every day for 5-6 years now. Great knife / pry-bar, etc. Have truly beat it and it looks and works just great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mactiger Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 I carry a Benchmade Osborne for everyday. I was pretty proud of my little collection of Benchmade, Gerber, Spyderco and CRKT knives until I saw Lyn's collection: man, what a beaut! Knives for days.

rhino Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Camillus has a new polymer handled, AUS-8A-bladed version of one of their assisted opening folders. It will probably be my next knife as soon as I find someone who actually has them for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Pinto Posted May 16, 2004 Share Posted May 16, 2004 Lynn, Man, I thought I was OTT with 30 knives, but you are THE Master ........... I'm not worthy. I didn't notice any MOD knives in your collection. Do you have any? If not, the Dieter CQD is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
