I think i'll use my urban mutt next time i wanna pry something Not the HCLE? Just kidding. I always use a giant screwdriver that some bonehead mechanic left under the hood of my late wife's Maxima.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I broke the tip off a 420 HC Buck Odyssey using it as a screwdriver and it broke but it was easy to regrind.
I usually like plain edges but everyone needs at least one big dramatic fully serrated spyderco. I would love a Massod in CF fully serrated but I had always wanted a Police since they first came out. Partial serrations suck because you have 2 short useless edges. A long fully serrated like the police is like a portable chainsaw and a great self defense folder because it is tiny clipped but huge and intimidating open.
An Endura stainless in VG10 is a steal at about 65$. I am really loving this Police sheath. It is so neat but it is a little strange to use. If you try to stick the knife straight in it won't go no matter how hard you push but put a little curve on your push and it is really easy. It will never fall out but it is easy once you learn the trick to put it in.

I wanted a small spyderco for a smaller and lighter EDC. For a long time I wanted BIG folders so I liked the idea of Spydercos littlebig knives. I was stuck between the Polliwog and the Caly3 and eventually got the Caly but the Wog has a nifty ball/compression lock and a sideways book style opening and closing. I see your design has a ball lock as well.

Does anyone know of a good site to get replacement folder clips? I want to swap one out so it rides lower. Thanks.
