That's what I'm thinking! :)
Guess we just need to hope another distributor coughs up the cash for an exclusive run.

It's interesting this one is an exclusive. Wasn't the 52100 Military a sprint?

It was a sprint, I remember buying from a few different vendors.

I recall Sal himself decided on this one. As usual it went against industry common knowledge. Everyone knows you just can't do that!

I don't know! I'd go as far as saying I love the Golden entire PM2 :D

Knives like this remind me why I really like the Golden manufactured knives.

My first :spyder: CF. Really nice. Different than any other CF I had my hands on.

Got mine this AM. I look forward to seeing what makes 52100 so good. Now, if I can just put my Police4 down for a while...

I am proud I was one who pushed this steel on this forum back in 2015 but...I don't have a spydie in 52100 yet.It's time to remedy this.I just have to decide between the Millie and the Para2.

EDIT: Read further back in the thread, pretty excited it's an exclusive!
This one isn't a sprint? Mine's on the way from bladehq. If this sells as slow as the millie version did, I'll have time to pick up a second one ;p Love, love love 52100. and I can take a PM2 basically everywhere without scaring people; the millie usually has a smaller carry tag along.

I have a Military in 52100 and 2 other PM2's already, so probably not.

Mine arrived today, awesome addition to the PM2 family. Great job, Golden!! :spyder:

On a side note; when I opened the box I thought it was a PM3 because I've been carrying the Police 4 so much. :D

Would definitely like to see it carry over to other models!

But aren't they limited by the stock thickness? I thought I remember reading Sal mention that it was only being rolled out in one thickness and difficult to get otherwise...
Going back to Caly.
