Wow. I'll be interested to see the Paysan. I was really disappointed in the Nirvana. Mine had a rattle to it when open, which seems insane in an integral lock. Hopefully the Paysan is better. :)

My Advocate had a rattle to it as well - turned out it was the lanyard tube, which was just loose enough to turn and make a little rattle. A dab of superglue solved the issue.

Very much looking forward to this knife, although a kidney will have to be sold to afford it. ;)

Great news for Spyderco!

Paysan has really caught my eye. Not sure if I'll ever own one but I may have to find a way.
