BLACK On BLACK In BLACK

#1

Post by Motorman »

Recently have returned to Spyderco as my favorite carry knife. I bought a black Paramilitary 2 with a black blade and hardware. Love the knife-it is a true keeper. Is there any other model that comes close with the same color highlights, the Black On Black In Black program?

Thanks for pointing (pun intended) me in the right direction.

+1 on the manix 2 also the manix 2 Xl b.b.b.the raven used the have black handle aluminum or g-10 black dlc blade and black hardwear same with its little bro the crow.if you can find one the are best Byrd knives hands down.I have two of each b.b.b crow and raven they are allways in my left pocket.also there is the a.t.r. all black if you can find one and that has a frame compression lock. I have one of them and it is a true gem.I really like the frame comoression lock just like the one on the pm-2 but it uses the frame.its not a regular frame lock Eather it is in the back.there is also the native with frn handle b.b.b.very nice beater.I have one in spydrredge.that serration can cut right threw bone.I would like to see a native 5 in all black that would be sweet.that's all I can think of now.

"At the ready".its a knife from early 2000 .all stainless frame that is scalloped all over with a 4 inch blade..they made one In all titanium and one dlc coated all black.kind of a combat knife.really cool.I have the black one.I now a guy who has the titanium one but it sure is pricy but worth it.one of a kind and spydercos just go up in price.look up the crow and raven also great knife for $25 even if you cant find the all black.I saw some on the bay and amazon all black for $25 or less.the native frn comes in all black but I don't no if it comes dlc in plain edge might just be spyderedge.but the spyderedgeo is a work horse the only thing I don't like actually hate is pin construction. You cant adjust it or tinker with it. If you have play you have to send it back.the raven and crow wich are way more then half its price has torgue skrews.I just don't understand a work knife needs to be adjusted.still a greatt knife.they don't make native 5 in dlc blade if you could even find a native 5

I believe the correct term the kids are using now a days for the all black knives is "murdered out". Yeah I'm pretty groovy. I keep up with the slang.

IMO, the Para2 doesn't really count because it still has silver liners, lock and standoffs. On the Manix2, those items are all black.

That's true...the one thing I didn't like about my black Para 2 was the silver liners and pillars.

Unfortunately no. FFG it and skeletonize it and it would be perfect.

Love my Black on Black Millie - maybe because in 8th Grade I won Honorable Mention in an art contest by painting a sheet of paper all black and calling it "Black Cat in a Coal Bin Eating Liquorice at Midnight."

I love all-black Manixes! I have two of them.

There is an all black version of the Pacific Salt, as well.
