Got mine today. Wow. Superb. Easily the nicest of my 3 pm3s. Pivot is tightened to the max and the blades still swings freely. So smooth. Perfect centering and no play whatsoever. Love the gray g10. Can’t wait for a military version...

Found one at National Knives and snagged it about 10 mins ago. Get em while there hot. Wished I would have kept the PM2 in Maxamet but I'll see if I like this Para 3 format.

Try an MXGear clip before you make your final judgement

REALLY brings the para 3 to its fullest

Funny you say yhat. Already in the mail also. I'll try it out first. Really like the long mgx for my Delica Hap40 Pakkawood. Pulls out of the pocket like butter.

I also would really love to see a G10 Manix in Maxamet.

Wow.. you had me drooling there..

I am thinking of buying the S110V Manix G-10... but it was offered in Maxamet.. I would hold off and buy it instead!
You won’t be disappointed with the S110V.
Well I have a S110V Manix2 LW on order now.. so it will be my plunge into the steel

Got mine today. Kind of sad, because it is so awesome my other office edc's are going to be left out of the rotation for a while. I am going to swap out the shiny clip, though, for a Lynch deep carry black clip. Office carry means not drawing attention to yourself ;)

Optics Planet has them for $170 with 10% off coupon "RAIN" for $154 shipped. Their availability reporting is wonky, but I just received my shipping notice.

I may or may not have picked up a Wicked Edge system using that same coupon.

I like mine so much I started taking it to the office.
The blade finish is so smooth and edges are rounded unlike any other Sppderco (other than my LW Manix also in Maxamet).

So is this a sprint run or a full production run? What are my odds at getting one of these in a few months? Probably wishfull thinking....

I also really like how the stone washing rounded everything out. It gives it a more finished feel. It's also easier to wipe clean than a coarser finish.

Ow crap, my Para3 Maxamet was declared through Dutch customs and the address on the package got damaged. :( Now it goes back to sender..... d*mn Package —>USA —> Netherlands —> USA and hopefully my doormat. Got in touch with KW and they where very helpfull. As soon as they got the package back they send it again without any costs. Good service!

Got mine today. Very nice! Great shade of gray that goes perfect with the stonewashed blade. Free dropping and super smooth action.
Time for another :spyder:!

Got mine today and it's my first Para 3. WOW! the size is absolutely perfect. Swore I would never buy a Para 3. Man was I wrong. Delicas are all back in the safe. The MGX clip makes this knife though. The Maxamet was so **** sharp I already cut myself.!
