Re: Baliyo from spyderco
Cardoso, the person you talked to is Alan, he's a Sales Rep here, he's handling the BaliYo. Our Sales Manager is Kelly, she's involved too. We appreciate your interest, keep an eye on http://www.baliyo.com for more information about the release dates. As you can see below, we've got a lot in the works with the BaliYo. Here's some information from Sal as posted on our forums. Hope this helps.cardoso5fr wrote:As soon as i will have information, i will let you know, i contacted spyderco sales manager, and will have normaly and answer tomorrow or friday.

"Thank you for your interest.
The new Spyderco BaliYo is a pen concept that will be expanded. We've been working on the idea and making models for more than 2 years. The original BaliYo is one of Eric's designs.
The goal was to capture the "spirit" of the butterfly without any of the legal implications. The BaliYo can be used anywhere, by anyone, sitting or standing.
Tooling is curently in progress in 3 locations and prices should vary from $15 to $50. Delivery is expected to begin in May or June.
Since the pen "moves", much care is being taken to be able to handle millions of "flips" (and a few "drops" ). Quality materials and construction is important.
Size, balance and shape have been refined to serve. There will be a variety of colors and so far, two basic shapes. Many plans for the future.
We're planning a contest; regional to national.
BaliYo's are safe, legal and fun and should serve a large market. "everybody BaliYo's".
sal"
There is nothing more important than this one day.

This is my [terribly abused] Fisher Space Pen 20+/- years old and still going strong If the "Bali" part is as good as the pen part, this will be an awesome device
