Spyderco Forums

Was able to snag one from Knifeworks too. Thanks everyone, I think... My wallet sure got lighter real fast this evening after reading this thread. :eek:

Apophis - Thanks so much for the heads up! I was able to order one just now.

They call it a "replica". Even the box is knocked off. Has to be illegal since it's in the U.S. (at least copyright infringement, etc.).

Done. Thank you for posting about here on the forum side of things.

Jack,

The price increased to it's current level after the first half of the run was sold.

The e-mail from CS (a portion of which is pasted below) stated they would increase more rapidly than it appears they have so far.

I started them out at 40% off, now they're at 35% off.
When the next ...

Wow! :eek:

CS website now states there are only 200 of these :spyder: knives left, and that the price is going up tomorrow.

I placed my order on 12/6 and was invoiced for the balance on 12/24. Mine shipped on 12/28 and arrived in this afternoon's mail.

:D Received mine in the mail today. Happy :spyder: New Year! :D

Here's what was communicated in an e-mail from CS about an hour ago:

Greetings!
Just a heads-up -- the Orange Para 2 CTS-XHP production run is halfway sold out!
It was at the halfway point that I was planning on pulling the 40% off pre-order special, which I've done.
I just did not realize that ...

Thanks for the heads up that this was now available for order! My order has been placed and confirmed.

I've been checking diligently every day and it wasn't up yet earlier this morning. Been looking forward to these additional versions of the Paramilitary 2!

Like a number of the folks that have commented above, I keep all of them as well. The more information about a given knife that I can get or retain, the better. I do have quite a few seconds which didn't come with the boxes though.

It sure was a surprise, albeit a very pleasant one, to get the invoice today and the notice that it is supposed to ship on Wednesday. Can't complain about the wait now, I sure didn't think it was going to make it's appearance this soon.

Keep a C79BK Assist in each vehicle console.

Thank you very much Kristi!

In light of the approaching anniversary of 9/11, it pushes the WTC knife to the top of my list without question.

I guess it would be more appropriate to consider it the most respected and cherished :spyder: for what it represents, rather than "most prized".

A defensive knife course. My wife has been carrying a knife every day ever since. And that was back in the mid 90's.

Congratulations! Smart move making the stop on your trip.

JT -
This one went for $212.92 :eek:

I watched that happen myself. Amazing... The bumps in the last minutes were colossal. It was what, something like $207.50 with about 15 minutes or so to go. Wow.

The left handed version went for just under 1/2 the price of the right handed version, at $247.50
