Post by laker_cj »

I've been waiting to let everyone know about this one for a while!

Shipping this week to select dealers in limited quantities (only around 1500 in this batch)

Para3 Lightweight Teal FRN scales with a satin finished S90V blade.

Happy Monday!

S90V is a really great steel, and while the color isn't quite for me, I do think it's cool.

1500 is a hugh number.
S90V might mean it's not cheap.

I am glad I do not like teal.

Should get my Para 3 S90V carbon to some use...

OP said ... selected dealers ... so hopefully more than one. The price looks not too far from Spy27. I will wait how this plays out. I am looking at higher end steel Para 3, the S90V is just one possible options. I expect to see more sprints and limited runs throughout this year. I would prefer 4V/k390/Cruwear

I could probably stomach that color for a Stretch or Endela in S90V, I like my Para 3 LWs ok but...

Teal is great because it's a "sissy" color - so much more socially acceptable when it's "cute"

I'm in for one, and now I can give my wife back her teal dragonfly. I don't give much thought to colors being wimpy or sissy, but I also think ranger panties are perfectly acceptable public attire. I like what I like, no one has to understand it.

I like the teal, definitely over the regular black. I would absolutely buy one, probably because of the color. Granted I like the Blue KnifeJoy Para 3 LW better.

Standard workout attire over 60 degrees. My neighbors get an eye full. “Sky’s out, thighs out”.

Pro tip: Wearing ranger panties and carrying around the biggest cucumber you can find in the produce section renders your knife color invisible. If you're lucky, it also gets you out of going to the grocery store. I'm unlucky, my wife finds it hilarious.
