Any idea what angle you used for hard use?

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
I definitely like the steel and handle color. For me a Para 3 gets a lot more pocket time. Wonder if that model will get this combination also.
Re: Bento Box Something Something....
I couldn't tell you. I don't have a way of measuring angles accurately, and I sharpen freehand. Smaller angle than it came with.
PM2 is my most used knife, so having this steel in the mix will make for fun science.
And I don't know what you call this green, but I want it... even if it is just the standard dark green.

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
Wow I'm excited for this one I think, More color the better and K390 is the perfect balance of lasting forever and ease of sharpening imo. I really hope that other places are also going to have this to sell like the brown s35vn PM2. I can't see why it would be any more than the blue M390 blade if they do all go to bbs.

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
It was mentioned elsewhere that the K390 Ranger Green PM2 could be distributed by Moteng - Sportsman Supply and that BBS be releasing a Elmax Para 3
Do we have any hard data what will be from where?

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
Seeing as CC members already have their k390 pm2s, and no other dealers have anything on their websites about them, I think it's looking pretty likely that BBS did buy the whole run of them from Sportsman's Supply (Moteng).

I was harping on a K390 full Seki run so much, and also asking for a PM2 specifically that I was starting to think I was just downright annoying... I guess they can finally shut me up! Thank you Spyderco for making dreams come true :D :spyder:
If this heat treat is anything like the Police4 I think a lot of people are going to be impressed with this steel. I can't wait to have a smaller locking K390 folder. It's going to be hard not to buy two.

I hope this is not true. I haven’t bought anything from BBS and never will.

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
I'd really like to avoid this as well. As much as I wanna give a $45 markup for it, I'd rather give my money to a fair dealer.

I hope the masses jump on your bandwagon; I don't mind the opportunity to own a copy or two...

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
Three different ones from CC on ebay already.
Where is the regular production?! I am ready!

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
Ugh! an Elmax PM3 would force my hand and then I'd have to order *another* knife from BBS... I might even have to start liking them

I found this picture of the insert from one of the ebay listings. Confirms that the K390 Ranger Green PM2 is a BBS exclusive.

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
Well, I guess the only questions left are how much will it cost and when will it drop?
People who want it will pick it up, but I don't anticipate a 90 second sell out

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
So where the heck did all this Sportsman's supply business come from? Just a mistake in the early ebay listing I guess...

Hi,
is that a flippers' exclusive? :eek:
PLEASE, make PM2 K390 a regular production or a sprint available at some credible dealers.
I guess BBS will ask at least $230 for it... without shipping...

Re: Bento Box Something Something....
Their m390 satin pm2 is $189. Still pricey, but not insane (imo). I bet this one will be more in that range.behinDedge wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2019 9:03 amHi,
