Beautiful! That REX-45 Para 3 LW is one of my most-carried knives. So much cutting power in such a little package! Enjoy it.
If I´d get a Para 3, this certainly would be the version I´d try to find!! :)
I am not a steel expert at all, but even since I don´t know too much I can tell, feel and confirm how amazing REX45 is.
And I happen to like burnt orange...
I agree. I’m just upset I was too late and missed out on a lot of the REX45 knives. The upcoming native chief is too large for me.

Not sure, but I think the Manix 2 LW in REX 45 should not be too hard to find. Larger than a Para3, smaller than a Chief.
Though some don´t want a tool steel i a pinned knife. I personally have no corrosion issues with mine though so far.
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)
-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)
Hmm funny thing that I just saw is that K&T suddenly has a few REX45 Spydies in stock. Which includes the Manix 2 and the Native 5 (which I ordered right away but is still in stock as for now).

Hey Martijn, think I did not welcome you here yet, so "welcome"! :)
Might be great news for some that the REX Manix, Native and Native LW are in stock again at K&T!
I allowed myself to share it in a dedicated thread.
If I had´nt the Manix LW in REX 45 already, I´d certainly go for the G10 Manix now...

Thank you! Great to be a part of a fantastic community that already gave me a lot of information and reading fun :)
I have the Lil’ Native REX45 since there where no other options left at the time I ordered it. And can’t wait to receive the G10 Manix in REX45 tomorrow! A great way to start the weekend.

Has anyone else noticed BHQ lists the model as “coming soon” whereas all the other models that have dropped are “discontinued - out of stock”?
It still says coming soon. Is that a mistake on their site? Did they drop these yet? I assumed they were done.
"Rome's greatest contribution to mathematics was the killing of Archimedes."
Yes, but $275 is a price that does not make sense and most US sellers don't ship (and are not interested in) outside US. But I just ordered Teal S90V from BladeHQ, so I am good when it comes to Para 3LW.
Yes prices are high.
I am not a fan of teal but S90V is an excellent steel and worth a try
They apparently do, the order was done online in standard manner. Shipping was $37. I need to see the teal color in person to decide on it, but since it is very light and not too strong I figured I shall be able to dye it maroon or darker blue easily.
resurrecting this thread to post this - it could be a glitch/error on BHQ's part, some customer returns, old stock that they found - or is there another production run of this? While I find it highly unlikely since Spyderco's Sprint ideology states that Sprint Runs are one and done. I've emailed BHQ already and will update if I get a response.

It's been in their Coming Soon section since before it actually came and went.
