I dont know about a Machete, but I would like to see a nice heavy chopper in M4. Even a dedicated skinning knife in S90V... Something about the size of a Para 2 as a fixed blade with a little more "sweep" to the blade in a good wear resistant steel (S90V!). That thing would be on my hip fr...

At first look yeap, quite simple, nothing really different from another spydie and why so big ??? But when you handle it for the first time... WoW ! :D And you're done :rolleyes: I agree... the more I mess around with it, the more I find myself looking for stuff to cut with it. Strange :cool: . I l...

Me too, I think I am in the same boat on this one. Looks like it will be expensive on the secondary market.

I agree. I like to use mine too. I am thinking the regular Ti Military would be better for me, or the Ti/M4 version. I think I would get more out of it than having the fluted version.

I have been re-thinking the fluted titanium version a little bit. I have no doubt that it will be awesome, but it is awful pricey, and I think for something that beautiful, I would rather it be a little smaller. I don't know. I have one on preorder, I am just not sure. I have been thinking if I am g...

Got mine today. Wow. That's all I gotta say. Black Blade, Camo G-10 sexiness. With my similarly clad Para 2 it is like big brother and little brother.

The Para 2 is one of my favorite folders ever. I have become addicted to all the different versions of this knife. Just the perfect size for EDC.

I just pulled the trigger on one too. Should be coming tomorrow, I can't wait! I have a pretty good Manix 2 and Para 2 collection going, figured it was time to add a regular Military. I got a Camo/black blade one - mostly because my Para 2 in the same combo is just so **** sexy! Especially with a po...

I have been doing my own little "test" I guess with my CTS Manix 2. I have been using it to carve and whittle wood lately along with my S30V Para 2. The CTS steel seemed to hold it's edge much better under this type of use. I got some chipping in the edge of my Para 2 from push cutting/lig...

I can't wait. They told me I was in the next batch when I emailed them the other day. I am working on a project now where a ffg M4 blade would be extremely useful. They told me it may be a few weeks until the next batch comes in.

Usually just one. If I am doing yardwork it is a folder (either a Para 2 or a Manix 2 - I have a few different ones to choose from... lol) and a Junglas. My CF S90V Para 2 is most likely at any given time to be in my pocket.

Manix 2 - get the G-10 regular version. You will be astounded at the quality for the price. Especially when it is sitting there next to your griptillian. I am speaking from experience. The Griptillian was the first "quality knife" I bought. The Manix 2 in the pic was my first Spyderco. I h...

Just got my first S90V Para 2 today! It was absolutely worth everything I traded for it. Man, I really don't think I need any of my other knives now (though I am sure I will keep buyin em!) Really is amazing steel. Now for a Military!
