Finally got a Paramilitary 2!

My all black paramilitary 2 arrived in the mail
No worries of it being a fake as it was purchased from reputable dealer :D
(Altho I did check it carefully anyway!)

very excited
Seems like an awesome camping knife
Looking forward to the summer

I'd go for a scaled-down PM2

Does anyone happen to know how the 440c steel (found on the newer Cat and Chicago) compares to the 8Cr13MoV on the budget knives?
In terms of edge retention, corrosion and rust resistance

I received the Brown Delica 4, the Delica 4 189 and the Sage 1 today. Very excited. A little surpised at the sizes. The Delicas are a little bigger than I expected and the Sage was a little smaller. Pleasently surprised in both cases! I'm hooked, I'm afraid. Nice! Yea I had the same reaction when I...

I've also been trying to pick between sage 1 and chaparral
I prefer the chaparral's size; if it had a liner lock, I'd definitely pick that .. easier to close one-handed
