How many total cut outs are in the liners? Are there 2 dents on the liners as well?

It's hard to tell for sure from pics but it looks like the real deal to me. Cutout in the scale for the lock looks correct and I think I even see at least a notch in one of the liners.

What makes you think it's a fake?
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!

Feels lite compared to my other Pm2. Just trying to get everyone's thoughts. I can take more pics if needed.

It's probably real. Most fakes lack the cut out on the lock side

My thoughts too just doesn't feel as hefty as my other Pm2 but it's satin camo. Wouldn't think there should be a difference in weight.

I half to because someone always has too.... :p Where did you buy it? Best way to insure that it's real is buying from a reputable dealer. That being said the PM2 looks fine to me

I have 3 fake/clone Spyderco Paras as well as about 20 or so real Paras and other real Spydies. And I did a lot of homework on youtube etc.
I did a comparison and your Spydie looks the real deal to me.
