Bought this on Ebay last month and while I think its authentic, 2 things seem odd.
The T8's are more of a T9 snug fit and the weight is 2 grams lighter.
Comparing boxes to a known authentic Para 3 it is 100% perfect.
The seller has 118 sold spyderco's with 100% positive feedback.
Here are some (not so great) pictures.

Paramilitary 2 - Fake/Real?
Re: Paramilitary 2 - Fake/Real?
Depending on the bits used, I can use a T9 on the body screws too.
My Wiha drivers are ok though, I can wiggle a bit in the print but if I insert the screwdriver at 90° and get it all the way in there, it goes perfectly.
As for the pictures, like you said we can't really see every little details but the grinds, writings, logos and the area around the stop pin and lockbar do seem genuine.
We can even see the notches in the SS liners, never seen a fake that has them.

In the collection : Lots of different steels, in lots of different (and same) Spydercos.

With regards to the Torx head screws, I wouldn't worry too much about the size of the tool you have to use to tighten/loosen them. Along the lines that Ramonade said, I've found different Torx drivers will fit more or less snug in the screw heads. I'd say use the tightest fitting Torx driver you can find.iNHUMAN_BE wrote: ↑Tue Mar 15, 2022 12:45 pmBought this on Ebay last month and while I think its authentic, 2 things seem odd.
