Wow, this looks way cooler than I was expecting.. very tempting. My wallet needs to keep reminding me that I already have a Para 3 and hope these sell out quickly..

I like it. Reminds me of the Bayou Shooter Endura. I'm hoping Mrs. SpyderNut will get me one for my birthday. :D

Looks good. I can always change the scales later. Got mine ordered.

I actually really like the looks of it, but then I'm a big fan of OD and FDE. Add in 204p, the price point, and the fact that I don't have a Para 3 yet, and I'm definitely in for one.

I love it. Just ordered 2. Reminds me of BM Bugout color scheme which I also love. Great steel.

I'm honestly surprised with the hate on the scales, maybe it's just me but my PM2 with the OD scales is my favorite looking Spyderco I own. OD Green with black hardware looks amazing together!

I like the scale color and I like 204P but I'm not real thrilled about the color of the blade coating. Gonna pass on this one.

I like the steel choice. But I'm not into the 'look' of the knife. 3-4 years ago I would have been all over it, but I'm liking brighter colors these days. I've been wanting to try this steel out but I think I'm going to sell my cruwear (the plain grey isn't doing anything for me either) and get the BBS m390 with that awesome blue instead.

It is a great price and a great steel but this one does’t tickle my fancy so I’ll pass.

Bummer.

I'll repeat my earlier point: to use a coating on the already-very-stainless 204P blade of a non-tactical knife is an opportunity lost. Plus, I'm not loving the color combo.

Still, the price point is very good...

Order placed. This will be my first exclusive/sprint Spyderco. The flat dark earth PVD coating on the blade looks great and I'm a sucker for green scales. The black paint on the clip isn't my first choice. A FDE PVD clip would have been a nice touch.

Really looking forward to getting this next week. I'm glad I learned about this version here on the fourm. I decided to stop lurking and join the discussion.

That’s more attractive with same CTS-204P.

Hopefully, about $140 shipped.

Sprint Run or Dealer/Distributor Exclusive?

Yes, its a numbered blade collectors club version. They usually get them right before the dealers. Same knife. Probably a better representation of the actual color. The pics on the Rivers Edge website kind of sucked.
