No doubt we'll have an official answer soon - every picture I've seen so far including the latest one from BBS is just a rendering. Fingers crossed for diamond-pattern!abbazaba wrote:Me too
Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
If it's dark gray I'll buy for sure
Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
Dark gray diamond pattern would be win-win for me! Fingers crossed!!

Interesting, can't wait to see if it is actually a dark grey or the color of the M2.
Happy to be part of this great forum and group of down to earth spyderco addicts, Thanks Sal and gang.

Bento box shop just responded to me and said that there is no diamond pattern. I know some will be disappointed by this but I'm glad to hear it. I wasn't really a fan of the diamond pattern on my Manix.Wright.88 wrote:Dark gray diamond pattern would be win-win for me! Fingers crossed!!

Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
The diamond pattern didn't really bother me, at least that dark grey shouldn't show dirt as easily,

Thanks! I just saw that on their FB page a short while ago, as well. It's nice they're responding so quickly on there.Liquid Cobra wrote:Bento box shop just responded to me and said that there is no diamond pattern.

If I could only choose one between dark gray G10 or a diamond pattern I would definitely choose the dark gray G10. Not a fan of the lighter gray color, so dark gray will be awesome!
Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
This is really disappointing for me on multiple levels. I really like the light gray as well as the diamond cut pattern.Liquid Cobra wrote:Bento box shop just responded to me and said that there is no diamond pattern.

I for one am more than happy with dark gray without a diamond pattern! :D

Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
I just didn't want the diamond pattern. I would have been happy with the light grey again but I'm more interested in the dark grey. I prefer new colours of g10 than repeating old ones. All good, just different :)ejames13 wrote:This is really disappointing for me on multiple levels.

Is this a computer generated image?
Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
YESSSSSS! Just got notice from a dealer these will be shipping next week :D :D :D
Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
BBS doesn't know for sure either way and are just guessing. They haven't seen anything. Spyderco says they will have diamond pattern... so I'm betting that they will have it.
Edit: Looks like descriptions have been changed to "fine checkered texture". So, no more diamond pattern. I'm guessing the "delay" was related to a diamond G10 sourcing issue and then they just decided to use the regular G10... and end the delay.

Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
It was probably just a misunderstanding and has been standard g10 this whole time. I doubt Bento box Shop was guessing. They most likely go with the information they are provided. Just like everyone else.

Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
These should be available from a number of the usual dealers. I noticed Knifeworks doesn't have their pre-order up yet. The dealer that let me know about this doesn't do pre-orders. They weren't sure how many they would get but said they would be available next week. I also put an early pre-order in with KnifeCenter and emailed them to find out if my order would be filled. This was the response I got today:Bdubs808 wrote:Which dealer, if I may ask?Tdog wrote:YESSSSSS! Just got notice from a dealer these will be shipping next week :D :D :D
Hello,
Unfortunately, we can make no guarantees as it is a Sprint Run. We are hopeful that we will be able to fill all orders.
How would you like for me to proceed?
Thank you for your patience,
Not a happy camper that they couldn't tell me if my order would be filled. One would think a business wouldn't take more pre-orders than they can fill. My pre-order was done on Sept 21st. Like others, I'll be looking a different dealers to make sure I get one....or two

KW's had a pre-order up for a very short time, like less than a day, I managed to get in on that one, also got an early one in at KC.
