That's going to be a cool looking knife! I'll likely pass though.
Same here, thankfully! I've got enough M390/20CV, as well as DLC blades. I also think that M390 puts out some of the best looking satin blades. Something about M390 is just very nice looking...at least that's how I'm reasoning with myself at the moment to pass on this one.

I love DLC and blue but the timing and likely price gouging on this one I'll likely pass......

It would be exciting to see this in something other than m390. Perhaps cruwear or s90v. Didn’t they do a military in s90v?

Why no love for M390? I can count on one hand how many times Spyderco has made a knife with M390. I know a lot of other manufacturers have used it but Spyderco, not so much.
Most recently acquired: Military 2, Paramilitary 2 Tanto x2, YoJUMBO, Swayback, Siren, DLC Yojimbo 2, Native Chief, Shaman S90V, Para 3 LW, Ikuchi, UKPK, Smock, SUBVERT, Amalgam, Para 3 CTS-XHP, Kapara, Paramilitary 2 M390
Grail Paramilitary 2 M390 X 2! ACHIEVED!!

If they drop a dlc m390 pm2 I'm going to get one, even if it is a little high price wise and the 15 bucks shipping. I really love my pm2, and would like to have another variation, and I like the black and blue theme. Blue is my favorite color!

Since M390/204P and 20CV are virtually the same steel I'd say they've used it a lot..

Now you can use just two hands (and a few fingers if you want to count fixed blades)! ;) Pretty sure that steel chemistry (and you forgot CTS-204P) is not overly used in Spyderco’s lineup compared to S30V, S35VN, etc.

I wonder how many people would have forgone getting one of the other M390 PM2s recently and gone for this one had it been announced earlier. I personally wouldn’t have!

I haven't been interested in one until this. I'd probably take it in S30v, I just want the color combo! Haha!

So what are we thinking here, $210?

I'm guessing $219 plus $15 s/h.

Import costs mean I prefer 20CV to M390
BBS might have been able to make it under $200 then :)

As much as I disagree with high prices and shipping charges of BBS, it would be hard to say no to a Native, Manix, or Military in this smurf blue DLC M390 configuration. Or even harder to say no to a Manix LW and Native LW! These models are much more compelling than yet another PM2 or Para 3 exclusive.

I paid $200 plus $12 shipping for my Elmax Para2 from BBS. No regrets either. :D This should be at least that much.

I just paid $13 for standard ground shipping at AZCK. SSK charges based on what you spend. I pay an average of $8 on eBay. Some retailers offer free shipping, but i gotta spend at least X amount of dollars. The dealer I have found with the best shipping is St Nicks. It’s free with no minimum. So $15 for up to 2 knives is fair imo. Boxes cost money, ink costs, paper for labels, packing material and time. I’m just happy I don’t have to drive 100+ miles to my closet place that sells the spydercos i want(GPK).

My price guess:$209 plus shipping.
