Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
I have two of the Militaries and the Manix2 in Cruwear and a half a dozen other Para2s. While I really do want this one I am probably gonna let this one slip by. I just ain't got the money right now. I would rather see the checkered grey G10 but I must admit that the shade of grey in the pics on KW's website is a nice slate grey. I love the color.

I am gonna go ahead and get it and then compare to others I have and perhaps sell one of those to fund it. I can't afford it either but seems to nice to miss out at least checking out. If this were production I would pass and get in 6 months.
Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
I've already signed into my KW account 3 times in the past few days just to make sure my pre order was still there. Lol. I'm coming up on my 1 year anniversary of using/ collecting Spydercos. I passed on the last two PM2 exclusives and I admit it's been tough seeing and hearing from all the happy users. I was staying alert for KW pre orders on this one as they are my preferred dealer. I'm so excited that I should be getting one of these soon. :D :spyder:
Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
well, TQK confirmed my order... Really excited to get my hands on some CRU-WEAR after all the talk about the Military and Manix!

Stopped by the Outlet store today and they had these in stock, very nice. They basically look exactly like the Military version to me, same grey G10. KW's pics look pretty color accurate on my monitor. The official Spyderco catalog (online) pic looks darker than the real thing on my monitor.
If I didn't already have the BHQ M4 (in my pocket right now, actually), I'd be all over this, but I think I'm going to pass as there are just too many other current/upcoming models I want. I never thought I'd say it, but Spyderco needs to slow their roll a bit - I just can't keep up financially!!

Really? The gray G-10 on the prior PM2, Military and Manix 2 is very light, like an Artic Gray

Very cool, thanks for confirming! I thought that was the case based on the actual pictures I've seen.

Re: Spyderco C81GPGY2 Paramilitary 2 CRU-WEAR
Looks like black in photos. I can work with that! :)
Hard to relate, but maybe same/similar shade as to what the grey FRCP will be for Maxamet M2?

Yeah, that's not a very good photo. I'd put it right about between the cruwear grey and black.SpeedHoles wrote:Looks like black in photos. I can work with that! :)

Thanks for the pic Lance! Better shade of gray since the lighter ones get grimey looking so easily.
I'm gonna kick myself in the face if my KC preorder fails. I should have preordered with KW when they opened it up and I had the chance.
