New member and all fired up!

Hey gang.....

I'm a new member but not new to these great knives. After owning and usng various Delica, Endura, Police, and even an early Harpy ( with molded clip) knives for 30 years, I just ordered a new Paramilitary 2. Can a 51 year old feel like a kid at Xmas?

Welcome to the forum!

Great choice on the Para 2. It's in my opinion, one of the best production knives available. I think you will really enjoy using it.

Nah, I actually admire your ability to be happy with the ones you had for so long... It's easy to get carried away with buying new Spydies. LOL!

Welcome to the Forums, Brian! Cool name, BTW. ("Moose Drool." Reminds me of a few of my relatives in Minnesota. No! I didn't mean that they remind me of moose drool. Oh, you know what I mean... :D )

Welcome,

I just got my Paramilitary 2 today... Great knife... you won't be dissapointed. I'm 56 and feel like a kid on Christmas morning. Very satisfied customer, my Delica G-10 will now get to take a rest and this little baby's gonna' come along with me on a daily basis.

Enjoy.

Welcome to the Forum, Moose! I'm 51 as well - and I feel like a kid every time I unbox a new Spydie. :cool:
