I certainly want both. I'm excited about the bladehq price, but more excited about the knifeworks knife.

Yeah I really like carbon fiber handles. I'm not sure what to think of the plain g10 handle of the bhq knife.

If it makes you feel better, Roman, my local post office does all kinds of stupid stuff with tracking info. For instance, if they have something from Amazon, and are unable to deliver for some reason, they will mark it as delivered so Amazon doesn't whine at them. How they keep track of it at that point is beyond me. Also we've noticed once or twice on Saturday a note that says "undeliverable, business closed - 6:00". And I'm often there at 7am on Saturday! What business opens at 6am on Sat? I'm convinced sometimes the mail guy just wants a Sat morning off. So, maybe your mail carrier is cheating on their spouse or something and chose a bunch of random reasons why the packages they had that day didn't get delivered.

Tvenuto,

I can only guess that my post office is like yours. My knives were delivered today. :)

So you got them? Or they were delivered to the wrong place?

I LOVE me some carbon fiber. It all depends when they land but for me the CF M4 para 2 is something i absolutely need several of. While the natural g10 version at 150 is a smoking deal.... im willing to drop 220 on the CF model. I dont think they sell out super fast either, but the natural g10 model will go extremely fast

[JNewell]

That's a stiff premium for CF, though. That's a $70 difference.

Carbon fiber Para 2's feel great in the hand. Someone sold their carbon fiber scales from their S90v Para for some reason on the Blade Forum exchange. I picked them up and put them on an S30v Para 2. It's my favorite Para to carry now. It's so light and the texture is awesome.

I got them. What was happened on Friday is a mystery. Possibly like tvenuto said somebody didn't want to deliver. There are no two addresses on the box.

I agree with you on $70. Price difference between CF and 2013 Forum Natives were only $40. Still CF CPM M4 Para2 will be sold for $220 very fast.
I really hope that all three KW exclusives will be well spread in time. I sign up for tree of them, just in case. But I will get para for sure, dark green Mily - most likely.

Glad it worked out! So how do you like them? I'll admit, as nice as mine is its another para 2 of which I have many lol. It's still exciting..

Nice! Hope you're satisfied. A very unique PM2 for sure!

[bh49]

Thank you guys. I love the knives. I am not a huge fan of black blades, but this one look terrific.

[palonej]

I gotta say.....this Para is just stunning!
People that usually don't notice my knives are asking for a second look and loving it!
Mine is an excellent example....coating is perfect, dead centered, super smooth free swinger, awesome & even edge that is wicked SHARP, no play whatsoever etc.
I get a silly grin stuck on my face when I hold it!!
Worth every penny!

Just a heads up. Jeff said that these knives will be going up in price as they start to sell out. He said that it's an attempt to keep the eBay flippers at bay. So don't wait thinking they might drop in price later on.

He did the same thing on the first run of no coated xhp. I believe i got 2 at 117 from him

[jalcon]

Interesting, wonder how many are left.

[Bile Bob]

I've noticed two things: the handles get dirty kind of quickly but even dirty this knife is very easy to find if you have it laying around somewhere and need it for something. That bright orange really stands out.

[Brock O Lee]

...the handles get dirty kind of quickly...

I noticed the same thing with the only other orange G10 knife I had, a Dodo. It does look quite pretty while new though...

For me:
DLC + non-DLC lockbar + orange = 0 PM2's in the mail :)

[palonej]

^^^ I thought the same thing, but got one anyway and am very glad I did! You have to see it in your hand.....it is really sweet looking!

[Tabo]

Got mine today and really a perfect specimen! Perfect lockup and centering and the blade just drops when the lock is disengaged. I can't stop looking at the those orange handles. To anyone on the fence, I'd say pick one up. Tens time better in person than in the pictures. Thanks Spyderco and Cutlery Shoppe!

I can't compare to those great detailed photos already taken but here is mine.

[Philo Beddoe]

Can't stop thinking about a Millie done up like this.
