I suspect the steel backspacer contributed at least as much, if not more, to the extra .75 ounce of weight as the marginally larger liners. Some folks have also suggested that the foliage green color reduced interest. Personally, I still think the fact its MSRP was double that of the FRN version ha...

I'm not among them, but G-10 certainly has its fans. However, in the case of the G-10 Delica there weren't enough of them, or at least not enough of them willing to pay an extra $40 to $50 to own one. the one they put out had the full liners that made it heavy. not surprised it didnt sell. this one...

As Deacon implies, G-10 versions (grey or light green, I've forgotten) were available for a relatively brief period. You, nevertheless, have done a fine job on your own. Congratulations! those had full stainless liners though and weighed a lot more than the standard one. this one uses the partial l...

I was referring to blade length, but still the problem is with redundancy. It would have to be so different that it become a different knife completely or it'll never happen. now ya lost me lol, why would it have to be so different? Spyderco has a ton of knives that are similar in size. Look at the...

Actually the PM2 is over an inch longer than the delica (mostly handle) The cool factor wouldn't just be about the size, compared to the PM the delica is rough. It would be great to get that quality feel that the PM has in the smaller package. Going down to the size of a dfly for instance would make...

They already made this knife it was called the Paramilitary 1 lol. Everyone begged for a bigger version and they made the Para 2. If they took off the choil it wouldn't be the same knife. The paramilitary 1 is less than half an inch shorter than the PM2 and only weighs 2 grams less...hardly a mini ...

Mini Paramilitary 2

Just wanted to through this out there. I recently got a PM2 and I love it however I'm finding it a bit large to EDC and sometimes feel wierd about using it in public just due to the size. Has Spyderco ever considered doing a mini PM2 like Benchmade has done with the Griptilian? I think that would ma...
