DLC is often applied via PVD anyway.

Oh heck, I gotta get me one of these.

Ah so this is referencing a coating technique and not the material?

Is it food safe? Lots of other manufacturers make colorful coated blades but they are not food safe.

When is this knife expected to drop???

Upcoming ParaMilitary2 CTS-204P Flat Dark Earth (FDE) PVD Blade Olive Drab (OD) Green G-10 C81GPODFDE2 Rivers Edge Cutlery (USA).

If judging this release like the prior Para 3 version this PM2 will be the hottest and hardest to get release of the decade.

slightly annoying that the liners etc are silver when the scale hardware is black and then a diff colour for the blade

Thought the same thing. I'm counting 5 different colors without accounting for the cutting edge/grind. Hardware, liners, g10, blade coating, and then the laser etching/symbols. This reminds me when I used to hop into Pontiac vehicles in the 90's. They were so busy with different mats and colors, it felt like I was at a carnival. Will probably take a peak at one at the 2nd sale though.

Wow...I never noticed that, but now that I do...all those different colors are a major turn off.

[curlyhairedboy]

for me, the ratios of colors are quite nice. You've got wide areas of the main colors, and little pops of the accent colors. Definitely interested in a Shaman version.

The Manix Rex45 is available from the SFO!!

[Tabo]

Just ordered the last G10 Manix 2 Rex 45 from the SFO so look for them to drop soon at dealers.

Does anyone here have any info or an educated guess on the chances/timeframe of a Sage 5 LW coming in all black dlc? Or other colors than the standard black handle?

After some research this seems to be the perfect knife for me, but I’d like something a bit less plain if possible

There is nothing official at this time, but Sal has mentioned that both the LW Sage and the LW Chaparral potentially opened the door for different steels and colors. Right now the closest you will get is the DLC Para3 LW. I was hoping the Sage5 LW would have dropped in the same gray FRN color as the Chaparral.

Welcome to the forum!

Thanks! Happy to hear there seem to be coming other Sage 5 LW versions, although it’s still not very certain and there’s no timeframe. The DLC para3 LW indeed was/is another good contender. Size is comparable and deployment/locking mechanism seems great on the para3 as well. I prefer the blade shape on the Sage and what I heard in reviews was that the construction of the Sage seems to be a little bit better, as well as the blade steel. On the other hand the para 3 is lighter.

Maybe it comes down to how long I’m willing to wait. Only good knife I have now is a green Zome Dragonfly vg10 and I’d like something a little bigger with a different locking mechanism and better steel.

Sorry for going so off-topic!

[ronaldcraig]

Thank you fo update. Will wait for the whole release.

[archangel]

8 spydies have been delivered in January, 10 in February. Seems like a slow start - but then again, when are we ever satisfied with the pace and quantity?

Oh great RamZar, if it's not too much trouble, could you dig up the respective numbers from 2019 and 2018 maybe?

[Tmckenzie181]

Is all of 2020 release v4 supposed to be on the market by end of March?
