Why would you have to discontinue the Para2 to make a skinny Shaman? Seems like you could propose your idea in a different manner.

Because then it wouldn’t be as controversial or garner as much attention...

Kinda sounds like the Kapara

The red spacer is perfect! The blue makes the Spyderco knife look like the mass amount of Benchmade Griptilian’s out there! I like the blue spacer idea but I can’t get past the likeness to the 20cv Grip... So, any color but blue... Funny, I had that Griptilian- loved the colors, but wasn't so keen ...

The scales are smooth, but the ergos of the handle keep it locked pretty well in your hand. I have no concerns about slipping up onto the blade or around the handle in general on these, CF or G10. Personally, I prefer the G-10, but I think these will be popular for blade swaps, look for some afterm...

So in anticipation of this one, I ordered a blue backspacer direct from Alistair Philips. I think it'll look great with the grey. Fingers crossed I can get the knife to go with it! Wow I think a blue spacer would look great with the gray G10! I just looked into ordering one from Alistair but cost p...

Do we know roughly when the CQI will drop? (specifically for the pm2's)

My local dealer had a black G10 satin blade S45VN PM2 last week, so they should be hitting dealers soon as they restock?

Ooh thanks for the heads up! Love the looks of this, will probably pick one up. Been waiting for an exclusive Kapara.

Given the issues I have with the cruwear dfly exclusive, I won’t ever be buying a seki sprint or exclusive again. I’m just not willing to take that gamble. I think you’re pretty safe with FRN exclusives, Seki does a great job with those. It just seems like Seki has struggled a little with QC on CF ...

Interesting design! I actually really like the look of it. I would definitely be interested in one with the right scale color and steel choice.

https://i.imgur.com/yKbUgKP.jpg Here's a comparison between all my blue-handled Spydercos in a little better lighting. https://i.imgur.com/OUk6jS3.jpg And here's the most color-accurate picture I was able to get. I agree that it looks most similar to the Vtoku2 knives, though maybe with a little mo...

My blue Spydies

Ordered!

Are there any other pics of this? I'm specifically interested in the liners -- are they coated black too, or are they satin? I don't normally try for exclusives that sell out in a few seconds, but I like this color combo (assuming the liners are black) and the price isn't outlandish. DLT commented ...

Anyone else notice some discrepancies between the official K390 composition and what's listed in the note from Spyderco? I suspect that letter from Spyderco isn't correct. I think you’re right, purchased from KC, so don’t believe it’s a knock-off, but didn’t see this typo addressed anywhere in the ...

I have a SPY-27 Para 3 LW but have been waiting for a dealer to do one of these in an M390-class of steel (that doesn't have red handles lol). Love the blue handles on the SPY-27 model, will definitely buy one of these when they drop!

That is the perfect dragonfly but I am having a hard time justifying the $168 price tag. Especially after all of my recent knife purchases. Wow, yeah, MAP of $168 is steep! Reminds me of the Fradon carbon fiber delica that had its price reduced like 3 times. With that said, that Delica had a lot of...

Well, this came in the mail yesterday. Very puzzling how optics planet got a brand new one of these a year after they sold out everywhere. I'm not complaining though!

So I received an email last week that opticsplanet had this knife in stock and was shipping my preorder from a year ago. It’s in the mail. I don’t know how they could have gotten more of these (I checked their website and it never showed as back in stock). Will be interesting to see what I get!

It's already started. This makes me sick. Dude probably thinks he's a good person for donating 10% of his profits to charity after marking the knife up over 200% above msrp. So not in the spirit of the Mule Team. https://www.ebay.com/itm/114683644151 Agreed, it is annoying to see. Though to be fair...
