Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
The non-DLC'd liners on the PM2, Para 3, etc make my OCD rage!! I wish Spyderco would started coating everything like on the Manix and Native. The St Nick's Manix and BHQ Jade M4 DLC Native and Manix are perfection.

Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
Don't need another PM2 but I've marked my calendar. Have to keep the SNK collection going
It should bother me too yet for some reason it doesn't. I at one point Sal said they didn't coat the liners because of the compression locksteelcity16 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 18, 2020 5:10 pmThe non-DLC'd liners on the PM2, Para 3, etc make my OCD rage!!

Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
I will try for this one too. I like the St. Knicks exclusives. I too would prefer the liners to be coated from an aesthetic stand point. I think it looks really good on the Manix 2.

I bet under a minute this time unless they put in a massive order
Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
At $10 over the base Paramilitary 2 with a black coating... This is priced phenomenally well. I like smaller knives with a 2.75" - 3.25" blade, but this is going to be ridiculously hard to resist (for the 2 minutes they're going to be available, lol).

Per their IG this is a 1200 piece run (minus qc losses) so at least there are a few more available compared to their previous offerings.
Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
I don't really want it or need it, but may try to grab one anyways so some flipper doesn't! Maybe be able to help a member that misses out that I know would use it! I have a couple IOU's floating around this place :)

Hard pass. I really hope they do a Military in this combo!

Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
I think I'll skip this one. I can't see myself ever carrying it in preference to the SNK Manix.
I also hope they do a Military.

Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
**** yeah! Gonna try and get 1! Looks killer I think.
Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
Yeah I thought I remembered there's since been one model that was made completely blacked out. Couldn't remember for sure. I do know at one point Sal said that DLC messed with the comp lock. Looking at my DLC PM2 it appears there's no DLC on the lock face. There's a trace on there but it appears that it the majority of it was removed. I wouldn't think it would be too hard to DLC the liners and then remove a little for the bottom surface of the lock bar. There has to be another reason they don't do it on the PM2dj moonbat wrote: ↑Sat Apr 18, 2020 6:08 pmI don’t think that’s the whole story. The Yojimbo 2 blackout is blacked out all the way.

Yeah, I remember that too. Something about DLC decreasing friction and thus the lock not being as secure. I still think they should just coat the liners and then just touch the lock part on the grinding wheel for a quick second to remove the coating on that tiny section of liner and blade. Problem solved.

Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
I will definitely try for this one. Steel I don't yet have, and I am ready for another DLC PM2. Only have one.

Re: St. Nick's 4v pm2!
I'm not a big PM2 guy, but it's 4V, I am 100% in.
I seem to recall reading or hearing somewhere that there were issues with DLC & compression locks that were causing them to look at either TiCN or making very minor adjustments to the lock to get DLC to work, the later is supposedly what was done to allow the Blackout Yojimbo2 to be a thing... I'll see if I can find or remember the source of that information though :)
