Looks nice! Not sure if I'll be in for one but excited to see the Para 3 LW's starting to land, none the less!

Red scales are all the rage these days. I've already got the blue G10 BBS version. An easy pass...this time. Another good price though from DLT!

Just saw this too. I think it'll end up being my first Para 3 in any iteration if I'm lucky enough to snag one. Hopefully we will see a Dark green 204p version from Knifeworks soon too, as that is my favourite colour/steel combo of the PM2

I hope Knifeworks lets us know soon because I’m only buying one Para 3 in the M390 fam and the green would be awesome!

I think Rex45 will make me jump. Other than that, I'm good on the Para 3's. Was a relief I'll save money on this one haha!

Boy, this will be a tough one to pass on. I may have to hold out for that green/204p version, though, as I already got the G10 version of this combo.

I’m not real sure about the price yet though. It’s $38 more than the Para 3 LW and just $17 less than their M390 G10 version. Does M390 really command nearly a $40 premium over a great steel like BD1N?

DLT 20CV PM2 was $140 and then the M390 version was $160. I think it must be import cost mostly. I would much rather stay with American steels, especially if it's the same thing and cheaper lol

The price seems a bit inflated to me.
