Whoever sharpened this PM2 deserves a raise

I got another PM2 in the mail today. In Maxamet. It is the sharpest Spyderco, and probably the sharpest knife I've ever owned, right out of the box. It seriously is razor sharp. Like way beyond scary sharp. Hair whittling sharp. Good job to whoever in Golden sharpened this one. I can see a band-aid ...

Oh, probably because the PM2 is already the best knife Spyderco has ever made. Right?

Why no lightweight PM2?

I wonder why there hasn't been a lightweight FRN version of the PM2?

Too similar in size to the Endura?

I think either an Endura with a compression lock or an FRN PM2 would be something I would buy.

When this came I was amazed at how sharp it is from the factory. I think it's the sharpest knife I've ever bought. It literally will whittle a hair. With ease.

The one and only Native 5 version like that (obviously not the stock scales!):

That is not the same grind.

Re: best locking mechanism for deer hunting folder?

Why would I want to clean blood and guts from the mechanism of my folder, when my fixed blade can just be rinsed off and wiped with a rag? I've hunted elk and deer in Montana for decades. NOBODY I ever hunted with used a folding knife to dress an animal. I don't care about your grandpa's Buck 110. I...

Re: best locking mechanism for deer hunting folder?

There is absolutely no reason to use a folder for field dressing a deer. It's just silly.

The little spring in the Manix lock always gives me pause.
