It has been a while since I got a stainless PM2. Actually, it has been a while since I got a PM2. And I have never tried anything in ELMAX, so I am interested.

I guess we'll see what the handle material and price is. PP CF would be a definite go for me.

I love PP CF and would like to see more of it.

I missed the BBS Elmax PM2 so I couldn’t really satisfy my curiosity (I only have the Elmax Pingo). I’d be glad if this exclusive is either a PM2 or a Military Model.

A day before the drop and still no additional details except it's Elmax and definitely a PM2. No price or number limit. No announcement also at the Spyderco app. Is this a new annoying trend among dealers?

Definitely thought there'd be more info by now. I know Elmax hasn't been a hyped steel lately, but plenty of excellent European makers use it (Shirogorov!). If the handle material is interesting I could actually be tempted by this one since I don't currently have a stainless pm2.

I know that it is highly unlikely, but wouldn't it be the biggest surprise if it was a FRN LW PM2

This is quite the secret. Hey BladeOps, what is it you want us to buy?

I’m an old grump and I am not a social media person so I guess I don’t get it. These teaser pic announcements are a turn off. Just tell me what it is already.

I have a doctor's appointment scheduled during the time of the drop and I need to know if I should reschedule or not.

Yes. Terribly annoying to be honest. It's not as if it's a $1200 limited edition midtech knife. I do understand hype build up for marketing purposes, but it's a PM2 in a rarely used steel by Spyderco, they will sell even if you don't post anything at all.

EDIT. - as of now officially 24 hours until release and still no details whatsoever
