It's just standard G10, different colors. Not quite sure what he's talking about.

I'm really excited about this one. Can't wait for the shipping notification. The next few days are really going to fuel my anticipation.

I'd say the flippers are going to make a killing in Cleveland...
...but I don't think they like the Browns either. :P

It's not the Browns colored orange anyways is it?
I stand by it looking like the 1980-2000 Miami Hurricanes.

So sad to hear, yet another short order batch. Glad I did not like it.
Have now dropped them as a source for buying. Voting against short ordering retailers in ugly or not!

Re: Cutlery Shoppe rex45 two-tone para3
I thought about grabbing one, even went to the website and seen they were available, but I already have a para3. If they make a para2 in this combo I will probably bite as I dont own a para2 yet.
Re: Cutlery Shoppe rex45 two-tone para3
Already on ƏBay

Surprised you're not blaming Spyderco for allowing such a small batch to be ordered :D
Go ahead and blame small retailers for not having the buying power of the big boys
Their hap endura has been around for months and they recently added the delica to it. I appreciate cs for making HAP40 regularly available

Re: Cutlery Shoppe rex45 two-tone para3
It seems to me that there are 3 dealers, who do a great job keeping exclusives in stock. BBS, Knife Center, and Cutlery Shoppe seem to consistently have exclusives in stock, and it's usually more than one model at any given time. Over the past year, CS has had 5 exclusives that stuck around for more than a few hours.
I'm not aware of any other dealers doing this.

BBS does better than most anyone but that has allot to do with the way they do business some really hate it but I have purchased from them several times and was really glad I could get a Stretch 1 off of them when everyone else was sold out, so it is pretty cool to be able to get discontinued knives without resorting to the bay.
What were the 5 exclusives from CS?

In stock in the last year, I remember the zome delica and enduras, orange xhp para 3 and a dlc version, and this two-tone one.Doeswhateveraspidercan wrote: ↑Mon Mar 16, 2020 12:52 pmBBS does better than most anyone but that has allot to do with the way they do business some really hate it but I have purchased from them several times and was really glad I could get a Stretch 1 off of them when everyone else was sold out, so it is pretty cool to be able to get discontinued knives without resorting to the bay.

This probably would have been my first Para 3 and first Rex 45 had this been all green!
