Today I emailed Cutlery Shoppe to see if a satin blade version was coming. I got a reply from Jeff saying that there will not be a satin version of this Military 2 exclusive

That is a bummer. Satin always seemed to be the more popular version.

Spyderco Military 2 15v

Spyder-fan

REC Avocado use to be super hot combo, for this not to sell out immediately is weird. I can easily pass with 15v on the horizon.

Well, it is $25 more than the PM2 from last year. And just a few $ less than I paid for a fluted CF S90V version.

This is a big reason why I passed. I couldn't ...

I bought a LeafJumper and just couldn't warm up to the ergos of the handle. I ended up selling it.

Spyder-fan

It's a pass for me at that price.

I've been kicking myself for not getting the Kapara before the first really big price hikes hit back in 2020 & this was finally my chance to snag one close to what the MAP was circa 2019 or so.
Where did you find a Kapara for around $188 (price in 2019)

Wasn't that exclusive $89.95 not that long ago?

Spyder-fan

Price is up to $210 now

Before I read this thread, I mistook the title to be a request for a non-locking/slipjoint version of the PM2 in G10.

I've been waiting for this sale. Sadly, I'm underwhelmed. The sale prices are not even close to as good as the last sale.

Spyder-fan

I have only bought sprint runs, discontinued models, or map sale knives over the last two years. It's rare that I will buy a production model at map pricing.

Spyder-fan

I like it and was tempted until I saw the price. To much for a Para 3 LW imo.

Yes, I've ordered from BHQ before. Pretty good experiences... :winking-tongue

But seriously, I ordered from hand-tools.com once back in 2017 for the Caly 3 HAP40 sprint. I don't recall any issues and it looks like it shipped the same day (or at least they processed the order the same day). So ...

Positron for $145

I just ordered the Positron, thanks!

I've read some concerning reviews about that dealer online. Has anyone purchased from them ...

Hopefully everything works out in the end. Going forward don't pay for anything without buyer protection. I only pay with PP G&S, or a credit card. A lot of people now want you to send funds with PP F&F which I refuse to do.

Now back to Crazy Good Deals.

If Spyderco sold select Sprints direct-only, and sold them at competitive prices to other Sprints, Exclusives, or even base models, I suspect retailers would see that as competition. I would.

Remember, too, that when Spyderco offers a Sprint direct-only, they take the full investment risk. And ...

Spyder-fan

I believe your correct. Spyderco factory store sells at full MSRP to not compete with their dealers. However these were dedicated knives that are only offered at the factory store. They weren't competing with their dealer network on these models and could of originally offered them at MAP. Instead ...

Spyder-fan

I picked up the new Military 2 with a discount on National Knives. I also purchased something I've been curious about for years, but the price was finally right. The Mcbee is only $125 at Knives Plus, which is $50 off the normal price. I think it originally cost about $129 when it first dropped in ...
