1st one came today, these really are impressive in hand, every bit as perfect as the s110v I received. Spot on centering, great action blade drops free when lock is engaged and even grinds.
Happy to be part of this great forum and group of down to earth spyderco addicts, Thanks Sal and gang.

I normally don't get into the coated blades but these look amazing. Just in time for Halloween.

I usually would not buy orange!, I like earth tones like brown, tan, od green etc. I just really wanted to try some XHP especially on this model. I received my knife today and I just have to say this combo of black and orange is pretty amazing. Its a great looking knife! I will now proceed to use the heck out of this knife.......I need to carve 4 pumpkins tomorrow to get it broke in. :D

If it makes you feel better, Roman, my local post office does all kinds of stupid stuff with tracking info. For instance, if they have something from Amazon, and are unable to deliver for some reason, they will mark it as delivered so Amazon doesn't whine at them. How they keep track of it at that point is beyond me. Also we've noticed once or twice on Saturday a note that says "undeliverable, business closed - 6:00". And I'm often there at 7am on Saturday! What business opens at 6am on Sat? I'm convinced sometimes the mail guy just wants a Sat morning off. So, maybe your mail carrier is cheating on their spouse or something and chose a bunch of random reasons why the packages they had that day didn't get delivered.

Even if the part that hits the blade was uncoated it would have looked better.

Got mine Thursday. It's nice...love the colors...but my S110V is way sharper and smoother out of the box.

Action on my "Halloween" Para 2 is tight, and the edge while fine for actually cutting something lacks that "omg that's sharp!" refinement I've come to expect.

But, the action will break in/can be adjusted and a good edge polish will bring the edge up.

Also wish the lock was black, as well as the single post spacer..they did the lanyard tube in black, why not that spacer as well?

Nits, really.

Hi Folks!


I'm not particularly fanatic about DLC coated blades, so I'll pass.

I still remember how when I got my second CTS-204P Para2 from KnifeWorks the whole batch was Sold Out in less than 4 hours... :D

I called USPS. They told me that item was undeliverable because there are two addresses on the box. Just wondering how this can be??????? There is not enough space on small flat rate box to put two addresses.
I will call local main office on Monday. I hope that this is not lost.

Why is the bladehq upcoming sprint so coveted while the upcoming knife works exclusive is not. Is it the price?
Current favorite: Manix 2 with carbon fiber scales and cru-ware.

I certainly want both. I'm excited about the bladehq price, but more excited about the knifeworks knife.
