CPM 15V PM2

[RustyIron]

w00t! Just got mine in the mail. No need to post a picture because it looks like all the others. Centering is good, bevel is good. I'm not going to carry it yet. Frankly, the PM2 as it comes from the factory is no good for left handers, so I need to fix it first. I need to carve out a little plastic button to make it left-hand friendly. A compression lock with a button is as good as a CBBL. I think I'll also give it some red dye... see how it looks on top of the light brown.

Can these be sharpened with the grey sharpmaker ceramic rods?

Interesting result from his follow up test.

That's impressive! Sounds like Shawn's 15V custom heat treat lives up to the hype!

Amazing stuff indeed. My experience with the Manix version was very similar in that it just doesn't get stupid dull. And comes back surprisingly sharp after some strokes on the brown medium and the white fine stones. Just an amazing job by Shawn and Spyderco. I just want this steel in a smaller form factor now. Would prefer the N5 but if it came out in the Para3 I'd be all over it.

Better jump on the last remaining ones for sale before they disappear in peoples safes and eBay

Congratulations to everyone who made this happen. This steel/heat treat/knife combo is a winner

Yup I think the Cedric and Ada Gear test just increased the street prices by $20-50% at least.

Of all the edge testing guys I find Pete’s tests to correlate the closest to real world use, rather than just pure wear resistance.

This beyond the hype because it’s beating Rex-121 and is hot on the trail on elastic ceramic. If Sal and Eric needed a green light to put it in regular production this is it!

There was a whole shower of PM2s and Shamans in 15V all over Europe, but the prices... Local, polish shops have them at about 335$ , most other places hover around 300$, there were two I found with prices around 250$. You guys have it lucky in Americaland

Some continue to come in in various shops, pm2 and shamans, but at prices well above 350€...

Added AWT Agent burnt bronze scales to my 15V PM2. Feels like a premium knife now.

That looks really good and burnt bronze is great taste!

Looks good. I like the bevel on the handles edge.

The bevels make it so much more comfortable. I wish Spyderco would at least chamfer the G10 scales on the PM2 like they do for the Para 3.

Yes they are.
