Received my Para 2 in Maxamet the other day. It's my first Para 2. Really nice knife. Luv the Maxamet! The grip on the scales is very good and I dig the grey color of the scales. The compression lock is really nice, I think this may be just the 2nd Spyderco that I have that is a compression lock.
This knife opens and shuts very well, maybe the best knife that I have for access to the blade.

Just ordered me my first Stretch 2XL and I got the Sprint Run version, I will have to dye the frn scales black. That's no biggie though.
Never even had a Stretch2XL in my paw just to check out, so this is going to be a whole new knife platform for me lol...
Also got me another 30 pocket roll up to display and help keep up with my addiction to these bugs. The one I have now was long ago running over big time, so this was past due. These things work great hanging up on the back of a door or wall. If you have not tried one you need to check this out. https://www.nationalknives.com/spyderco ... 30-knives/
There is a smaller 18 pocket version also. Check these out, the 30 pocket I have had for a while now is awesome.
I just bought a very good condition Tasman Salt 1 PE in H1. It must be a later one because it's got screws instead of pins, and it's got a spoon shaped clip instead of the bar shaped one. It should be here next week. It's going to be awsome
A used JD Smith Sprint run from New Graham Knives, (Thanks Vivi!), and a REX 76 PM2 from GP Knives.
Glad a Forum member bought the Smith , looked at it several times myself . MG2

That's good to hear, this knife I just bought if in good condition was priced good. Comes with the original box, which I like all my boxes. I feel good about it so far. I do like looking at their inventory

I'm really excited to hear what you think with regard to SE steel performance in K390, especially in my favorite of the Delica/Endela/Endura series. I keep thinking I'm ready for tool steel SE but I haven't been able to cross the mental barrier of carrying a non-stainless steel only a mile from the ocean. Maybe one day!
