CS gets their knives from Moteng (I assume) and that is why they got the brown version.jalcon wrote:Maybe I'm missing something but wasn't the brown PM2 a Moteng distributor exclusive? I thought CS's exclusive was the orange PM2? No?
In addition to the knives they get through their regular supplier, Cutlery Shoppe also commissioned the orange PM2 directly from Spyderco.
Just because a dealer gets their knife supply fulfilled through a distributor doesn't mean they can't also commission a run directly from Spyderco. I'd guess that every dealer that has offered a dealer exclusive in the past is normally serviced by a distributor.

Sometimes it feels like the popularity of the pm2 has made it sort of "uncool" to like it or even talk about it on this forum. Like a band that you liked and now don't because everybody else has heard of it.

Yea Liquid, I kinda feel the same about the PM2. When I first got into spyderco I was fiending over the PM2 and got two browns and a camo. Now after collecting and using my knives for a couple of years I barely carry either. Not that there is anything wrong...it is a great knife but I find myself carrying a Sage or Caly or a Salt so much more and when I want something bigger I grab the full size mili or the southard. I also think the frenzy over the green one turned me off a little. Anyway, I think Ill tote one of my PM2's today and see if I can rekindle...

I completely hear what you are saying. I had that feeling before I ever even bought a pm2. I've always kind of liked being different so part of me didn't want to like it because of all the frenzy. After getting one I appreciate the knife though. It's not the holy grail that it gets hyped up into here sometimes, but it is indeed a spectacular production folder. Probably the best, most functional and well designed folder I have owned. I love mine enough that I have no issue with liking the knife despite some of the fanaticism.
I think here on the forum we end up adopting distorted perceptions. Out in the real world I never feel that way about the paramilitary. I don't see other folks whipping out a pm2 very often. When I take mine out and anyone asks to look at it, they seem to like it. I'm pretty sure nobody is saying to themselves "oh god, another guy with a pm2!" Hehehe :D
