The photos of the Para 2 I have on the way show the indentation you mention.

I've been EDCing a SE Para for the past two years, and have recently decided to go back to a PE of some sort (either a Delica or a PE Para). Since you're considering the Military, you might want the CE version. More than enough plain edge where it matters, and the small section of serrations should ...

The advantages of the ricasso on the D4/E4 should be considered before discarding it. First, it is a safety feature when closing the knife one-handed. The ricasso bumps into the first finger rather than the edge. Compare this with the Tenacious which functions as a cigar cutter when closed onto the...

Those of you who have the newer screw pivots: Did the knives come from the factory with any kind of thread sealant? Every Endura/Delica 4 and Stretch I've had did not, and the pivot screw would back out with repeated openings and closings. One knife I had, even had the lockbar pivot screw back out a...

Yes, the listing is still active. Search ebay for item number 360306035431. I actually have a PE Stretch, and the ergos are so good I'm considering replacing my SE Para with a CE Stretch. In the time I've EDCed my SE Para (coming to 2 years now), I've found that I usually use only the tip for PE tas...

IMHO demand for crappy products must go DOWN. Too many people buy POS knives, flashlights, or other gadgets for their looks and price, without giving any thought to the function or materials used in these products. Less unnecessary spending and an overall increase in demand for higher quality produc...

Hi J, China is a very large country with a very large population. They have made tremendous improvement over the past 60 years. Far more than some other countries to be sure (consider Darfur and Zimbabwe). 60 years ago, Most in China were starving. Is there government perfect, certainly not, but th...

Are these knives assembled and fit in the U.S. or in Taiwan ? Are they QC'ed in Golden before shipping? I personally never expected to see such quality in a knife made in China . I guess I have been jaded by the acres of Frost and United you see at every gun show. Just a gentle FYI, most Taiwanese ...

To me, Spyderco has always been about functionality, practicality, and less about aesthetics and pointless frills. I personally think excessive packaging is a waste of resources and money, that could otherwise be spent on the actual product. I understand that first impressions count, and most custom...

Were your top three choices listed in any particular order, or was it a toss-up between them? I recently replaced my Paramilitary with a Native I, coming to pretty much the same conclusions as you. The dead simple and 100% functional monocoque design of any pinned FRN Spydie like the Native I is jus...

I don't care much for the black blade knives. Well if it's just for putting away in a box and viewing now and then that's OK. I use a knife hard and I have not found a black blade that can hold a decent color on the blade. If you use a knife hard why do you care how it looks? I prefer coated blades...
