Gotta be my new Green Paramilitary 2 from KW - right out of the box - fantastic flick open and close action - sweet EDC

I'm with Evil D. Good answer. I liked the military - then liked the original PM1 - then loved the PM2 and now have a small collection of PM2s - It's an evolution.

And, Chuck has solid advice. Why not find a knife - handle it for weight, feel - decide what you need in an EDC and then make your ...

Don't know when I'll carry it but very happily just added a Spyderedge PM1 to my PM collection. I'll be looking for boxes to cut up.

The longer the PM2 is UNAVAILABLE on Amazon - the higher the price - gee, if they never have them and they don't take back orders why not make them dirt cheap - "Would you like a Spyderco Paramilitary 2 for $50? Oh, sorry we haven't got any."

As Bruce Lee said, "Whatever works." Meaning - gun, knife, bat, pencil, fist, ground, car, door jam, belt, it's all good ... self-defense is a mindset. Do you have it when you need it? Would you use it if you had it?

Someone in another thread said that Roger from KW was ordering another batch - 400 more - patience - it follows that as the supply increases and the fever subsides, prices may fall to earth - Caveat Emptor - Buyer Beware

Spoke to Roger from KW this afternoon. His head was spinning from unhappy campers chewing him out over the release of a few dozen green PM2s. Yes, it was totally "first come - first serve" with notification given only to those on the back order list. Since, I was one of the lucky shoppers from the ...

Love my Black on Black Millie - maybe because in 8th Grade I won Honorable Mention in an art contest by painting a sheet of paper all black and calling it "Black Cat in a Coal Bin Eating Liquorice at Midnight."

Don't get nervous ... no one has to get up and start training for a 10k.

But, use your imagination and business sense and design a sprint run Spydie that could raise the most money for charity - what model, what steel, what handles, what color?

Would you number or etch the knives to give them ...

Hey, Sal, at these prices, I bet you could do another sprint run of 500 ...

I wish I had more to rank - right now - my favorite two PMs are both sprint runs - the green PM1 and the brown PM2 - with the green PM1 being my smoothest knife in a total collection of 6 PMs [2 sprint, 3 production and 1 cusadi custom] - would love the CF but if they are now going for $800+ it ...

Chuck, thanks for the video.

I like to alternate my PM1s [down] and PM2s [up] as my EDC - my previous EDC - for a few years - had been the Millie - so Tip Down - I had voted for Tip Up but considering all the replies and my previous carry history and the fact that the men from Golden ship the ...

As a newbie, could someone please tell me the practicality of using a serrated edge versus a plain edge? Thanks

Does anyone have an opinion on the STR [Steve Rice] low ride clip for the PM2?

And, how do I get one? I found [probably old] email address for STR Backyard KnifeWorks but got no response.

I did see a price of $30 + $7 shipping - but no order info.

Does any online store carry them?

I'd be ...

Pull, thumb flick - get down to business that's tip up!

Sorry, Blade Matrix now listing PM2 as either "out of stock" or "taking back orders." But, yes, this thread is great and more will pop up.

Just ordered a PM2 camo/satin for $123 [including shipping] from Blade Matrix. Should have it in 3 days. I had been waiting two months for this knife from Amazon - cancelled that order.

Ominodipietra thanks for the link - For varieties sake, I'd like to try a Tip Up wire clip on a PM1 or PM2 - does anyone know of a shop that would do this?

Has anyone tried to reposition the clip on the PM1 to allow for Tip Up carry? Is this possible? And, if it is, is there a company that I could hire to do the job? Thanks.

Endgame, thanks for the tip, I just picked up a green PM1 from Warriors and Wonders.
