Broken tip on Maxamet Para 3
So I have no idea how this happened but I broke the tip of my Maxamet Para 3. I've only cut through some tape on cardboard today and somehow my tip is broken. The knife didn't penetrate the cardboard fully and there was no metal in it at all. The box was tiny and just held a plastic wireless 10 key ...

Re: Any tips for removing Para 3 scales/hardware?
Gorgeous Evo! I drive a brother from another mother: STI. The lanyard tube sucks and I damaged it and a scale taking apart my Jade. Put it in the freezer for a few hours to make it easier. Everything else is a breeze. Getting it back in is also a nightmare. I ended up putting it on the table and pou...

Lol it's not a sports thing I just like the idea of doing something weird and crazy to create an interesting oddity.

Re: Burnt Orange Rex 45 para 3
I got mine today and the orange is just gorgeous. I'm toying with the idea of switching one scale with my BBS Para 3 to create two blue/orange knices.

Re: Burnt Orange Rex 45 para 3
I received my Para 3 from KC a few minutes ago. I'd say it's every bit as nice as the PM2. The factory edge is very sharp, blade's centered, action's good, G10's grippy, etc. The one thing I've noticed on Para 3 and the PM2 is the very tips appear to be bent a tiny bit. It turns out that the edge g...

Re: A question to Mr. Glesser about "the Maxamet situation"
Can you further explain the m4 staining under the dlc? Do you actually see this occurring? Yeah I accidentally left some water on my DLC Para 3 from BHQ and it stained the steel just like if the coating wasn't there. I originally had oil on it but decided to clean it off because it made the translu...

Re: A question to Mr. Glesser about "the Maxamet situation"
Yeah I seen a Maxamet Para 3 go for $270 recently so when eBay offered the 15% off coupon I jumped on one for $265 at $225 total. I was frustrated not getting a Rex so I got the Maxamet but then the following day I got a Rex from BHQ lol. I'm going to let Maxamet patina and I'll keep Rex oiled but I...

Re: A question to Mr. Glesser about "the Maxamet situation"
I just bought a new Maxamet Para 3 on eBay for $225 after a coupon. I'm obviously taking a gamble on the warranty but that's only $40 more than retail. I would also like to see it as available as s110v is Spyderco can make it work.

Re: Crazy deals @ Sierra and other places
Thanks! I just bought a new Para 3 Maxamet for $225. I got frustrated not getting a Rex 45 but Maxamet is high on my to-try list so this helps.

This was my first Spydie when I was 14. I still have it and love it to death. Another run would be fantastic but instead of black micarta it would be cool to see a Raffir Noble or bone/stag version.

Re: DLC M4 Para 3 with Natural G-10
Mine came in and I really like it! I abused my M4 Contego on a job site and it only needed stropping to keep it sharp. I really thought I screwed up the edge a few times scraping wall mud off single gang boxes but the edge proved really tough. I wouldn't use this sprint run like that but I do have h...
