Nice! Lucky you got both in the madness of the buying frenzy:)

Nice. I managed to snag the Para 3, but this is my time owning a Para 3, and I feel like it's too cramped in the hand. What I really want is the Para 2, and I haven't been able to find one :(

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm considering returning my Para 3 Rex 45!

You can probably sell it on the secondary market for a lot more than you paid.

Yeah, you're probably right. I'm not really into flipping knives.

I was more thinking that it would be a way to fund a PM2 (at the aftermarket prices).

You could post a WTT on the BF exchange.

I was lucky to acquire both as well. They are very nice knives, easily among the best I’ve seen in terms of fit and finish. I’m happy enough with these that I’ll probably not purchase the KW exclusive M4 CF pm2.

So I took your advice and decided to list my Para 3 Rex 45 knife on eBay (I refuse to sell for more than MSRP) with the plan to use the funds to buy another knife. I don't usually use eBay... don't trust it, don't like the seller interface... and Holy S#@!, they take a 10% seller's fee! Back when I last sold something on eBay it was like a 2-3% fee. What a racket!

10% is pretty steep, especially when PayPal takes their pound of flesh too.
