Re: What Spyderco is in your pocket today??
This is the best spyderco/glesser edc folder design. Just beautiful, functional, and combines all of spydercos core design elements. The black micarta is THE version for me, but I also do like the unique texture for the frn version of this knife, and this unique dark grey version is an awesome color choice. the weight undoubtedly really does make it a great summer or basketball shorts carry knife.
Also: I really enjoy how the Lockbar release on the jr.’s lockback is located a lot closer to the top half of the knife than the bottom, compared to some other lockback spydercos like the delica. This makes the lock very easy to operate as you aren’t required to reach your hand as far back to release the lock to close the knife. The cutout for the lock bar is also generously sized for extra ease of release

Flytanium Europa anodized scales + Ti backspacer. Teal scales, tumbled and refinished with bronze. Some scuff marks in shipping, but with the stone wash two tone finish you don't notice unless you're looking real close. I like them, I'd get them again.
They've got a blue and bronze, green bronze, and a pink and bronze combo finish. Their 'Terra' series.
I've got some green and gold (light bronze) fluted Ti scales for my Lil Native Wharncliffe (and a green Lynch deep carry wire replacement clip with gold shamrock) from Ripp's Garage Tech I'll be posting in a week or two when I get around to sharpening it and doing the swap.

Agreed...the Caly Jr. has an exceptionally nice lock release.

I’ve found that all of my Moki backlocks have a bit lighter tension and and smooth lock release than any of the seki or golden backlocks I’ve operated.
