Para 3 incoming

#1

Post by gull wing »

I have a Para 3 S110V on the way, in fact due Saturday.
I've dilly dallied on this one for a long time. Do I need a blade that thick? Do I need another Para? (have a Paramilitary 1)

To get warmed up to it, I carried the "old" PM1 for a while and relearned it can slice apple despite it's thick blade.
I didn't like the super long handle(have small hands), so I mod'ed the handle length and used a micarta filler. It's comfortable now.

Looking forward to testing the S110V . :D

This one is on my list as well. Love my S110V PM2 but I'd trade it for a Para 3 if I could.

Para 3 is my favorite pocketknife, paired with an alox rancher. I recommend a deep carry clip :)

I like the para 3 grip better with a signet ring added on, the para 2 is perfect, military too large.

Para3 is cute but... it’s not PM2 ;)
