Interesting. I'd rather Spyderco cqi that into the model at a better price.
Can already imagine some people arguing this new lock release will make it faster than a back lock. :rolleyes:

If someone buys this, hopefully they will disassemble, snap close-ups, and post.
Looks like it can be home brewed. Just a question of how easily.

I've ordered multiple items through them off of eBay. Always shipped really fast, and quick to respond when needed. Not sure about this though...

I have 26 different Para 3s, you tell me.
Can you find it and can it cut? :eek:
Re: Para 2 with button lock release..
If the button is being pressed from the presentation side of the knife it has to be a left handed lock, but the fact that the Sal and Eric logos are also on that side suggests that the Bug logo is likely on the back side so it's definitely a lefty which means limited steel options.curlyhairedboy wrote: ↑Tue Jul 09, 2019 8:07 amthat's the way it appears to me, too.BornIn1500 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 08, 2019 6:06 pmFrom that photo, it must require that they use a lefty PM2, correct?

Not really if this lock idea really blows you away but I personally would take a different steel over a different lock operation, especially if this ends up being pricy.

Re: Para 2 with button lock release..
Price is
$224.00 (plus $10 if you want colored scales, or more for colored hardware). http://bladeswelove.com/
$136.47 (todays cost on amazon for a lefty PM2, which we'll subtract)
$ 87.53 looks to be the actual cost of the mod
