Thanks! :)

That Watu really looks like a great cutting tool - wish it came with a liner- or integral lock like its larger sibling Chokwee...

/ And all who wish for a Tanto PM 2 should be REALLY happy when watching the vid till the end... ;)
(And I have to say: Though I am not interested in Tanto blades generally, this one is really thought through and appealing)
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):
- EDC: Endura thin red line ffg combo edge (VG10); Wayne Goddard PE (4V), Endela SE (VG10)

I really like the swedge on the Tanto PM2, it's cool to hear that they're being made now. Sounds like its a lock to be in the next reveal! :D

Is the orange a little (or a lot) off on the Rex45s?

I thought so too. Seems a bit more dull, almost brown. I was hoping it was just my screen distorting the true color a bit.

I’ve seen them a few times on different Instagram pages and they seem to be consistently brownish or dull.

Thanks for posting SG! Even more stoked for the Siren now. Wow that looked so nice and smooth. And the tanto pm2! That’s a must have. Fingers crossed the Military gets one too.

Awesome video. It's really nice to actually see these designs on video rather than still shots. I wasn't super interested in the Siren before, but wow, it really is a nice design. The texturing on the s45vn knives looks excellent, and I love the design on that Astute.

And there's that naive 5 lw in spy27 - not in the reveal - very cool!

I just want to say thank you to Spyderco for putting the numbers inside the Bombshell!

I don't care for the design, but I will be buying one just to support this practice.

Agreed, that's nice. It's really a beefy little sucker. Not my cup of tea, but an interesting design for sure.

Ive never cared for or wanted a tanto until now. All those different grinds and geometries coming together. Looks great.

Same with me... couldn't even imagine to ever like a Tanto, but THIS blade (and Erics explanations..) begin to change my mind... and the PM2 isn't even my favorite design.

My perfect tanto is on the Lum. It's just wonderful. Useless(unless you're a Samurai), but wonderful.
It just gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling inside when I hold it.

I'll probably buy one of these, if for nothing other than it's weirdness.

For those who complain that the tip on the PM2 is too fragile, the tanto should be quite appealing. They did a great job on it. Attractive too.

The PM2 Tanto has nice hints of CRK style and Bob Lum style - very nice

I'm jumping on the tanto bandwagon. Fascinating grind that Spyderco has settled on. I think Eric's is S30V, but, wow, a 3V would be the bee's knees. Maybe a sprint down the road.

That Tanto PM2 stole the show for me.
I’m really excited about getting some Rex45 as well (just undecided on the model).

I will get one of the PM2 Tantos for sure! Looks like a well executed tanto blade and should be a useful EDC.

Did anyone else notice that Eric showed a Native 5 LW in SPY27 and cobalt blue, which is NOT in Reveal 4?!
I don't get people who only carry one knife :thinking ;)
