I think I'm going to get the para 2 first.

VG-10 easy to sharpen and rust resistant. I live and work near the ocean and I'm not diligent about oiling my blades, So I like this steel.

thanks guys. I've got the spydie bite again and looking at these 2 knives. I saw the mike Janich dvd and that got me thinking about the Yojimbo, but I'm used to the stretch ergros and the Para 2 has that plus the compression lock is stronger from what I read. Spyderco makes it so hard with so many g...

Debating on which knife to get the yojimo or para 2. I started carrying a 2nd folder, one for edc (dragonfly) and one for defense (stretch). I like the 3-1/2" size and looking at the yojimbo or para 2. need advice.

I have both knives. The stretch looks "strange" in terms of the endura, but it feels good in hand and opens fast and smooth. I carry the stretch more than the endura.

Salt 1 plain edge with a delica tip mod. A knife I can carry all the time, light weight rust resistant.

Yojimbo-2

My Delica FFG does slice better than my delica 4.

Thanks guys! I like FRN scales for it's light weight , but I've been reading it not as strong as G-10.

Is Spyderco's compression lock just as strong as Cold Steel's Tri-Ad lock?

What is the benefit of a G-10 handle vs. a FRN handle? What situations will you need a G-10 handle vs. FRN?

I may be the minority but I always prefered the shorter blade and old style military clip tip down only. The improved ergos (no hump interfering with where my pinkie rests) is what won me over. Enough so that I plan on filing down the G10 on my old Digicam Para 1 to try and match the new handle. Re...

Am I the only one that compares a folding knife against a delica or endura? Are these Spydies a standard on measure or am I just a Delica/Endra fan?

Just wondering if the popularity of the paramilitary 2 was more the increase in blade length or the other features. Would you have bought the paramilitary 2 if they kept the blade length the same as the previous?

congratulations!

It's a fatter, fuller grip with a slightly different blade profile and thicker blade stock. thanks, I just got mine in the mail. great little knife added to my edc rotation as my 2nd "office" knife. my only problem with it will be I'll for get to take it out of my pocket before I do laund...

Back lock is my favorite. I can transition to my weak hand open and closing.

M-Pro 7, I use it on my guns too.

Thanks a lot guy! :) I just ordered an FRN Manbug because of you. I saw one for under $30. So got it. As a coincidence I ordered a keychain light earlier this am also. It has a quick connect/disconnect clip that I can clip the manbut to. Jack Yep, I ordered on too. Now to find a place for my ladybug.

Thanks!
