Powernoodle is very susceptible to peer pressure. Now Powernoodle wants a Chaparral CF.

Mine arrived about half an hour ago.
...and an observation. Unlike the Chaparral 2, where the texture is so subtle that it adds nothing in terms of traction, the texturing on the Chaparral 3 provides lots of traction. For me, that was a pleasant surprise.
How grippy is the CF chaparral?
The CF Chaparral I'm looking at online is described as S30V. Is this "old stock"? The Spydie website shows CTS HXP. Makes no difference to me.

I pulled the trigger on one for a good price. Got to help poor Mr. Sal pay the bills, right?
I'll be interested to hear your thoughts, when you get it.
Well, I love the Sage 1 and Sage 2, as well as the Cat, so I have high hopes for the Chaparral. I also place a premium on a thin profile in the pocket, and it looks like the Chaparral excels in this area as well.
Powernoodle's daily brain squeezer: the word "chaparral" derives from the spanish chaparro or "scrub oak". Its is now used to describe a biome or geographic region located primarily in California and characterized by mild, wet winters and hot dry summers.

In to my left pocket went this minuscule Chaparral.
Will it be up to the task? Only time would tell.
