Wow, a chance to basically print money and they said no. Give someone else the rights to do another orange Para 2 :p

I think it is still up in the air with CS and an Orange PM2 second run... It is more about the Golden facility being backed up more than anything that is holding things back. Jeff also said he has a few things up his sleeve with Spyderco he wants to do, but again, the wait list for exclusives are long.

I'm glad they are doing another run of this knife as I might want to pick up another copy without having to pay and absurd price for it. Having recently acquired a Military I am really wishing they would do some more runs of the M390 and M4 versions of this knife too.

I'm glad this exclusive is coming back, too. The first release was around quite a while but I was focusing my attention on other acquisitions. After a second release was announced I was intent on purchasing one but they disappeared relatively quickly that time (probably due to the general PM2 shortage across the entire market). I won't miss this third release (unless of course the Domino is issued at the same time)!!! :p
I always did wonder why people were paying inflated prices for these on eBay when they were still available at BBS.

Is this only going to be a bentoboxshop exclusive again? I already have one but would like a second. The reason I ask is because I live in New York and bentoboxshop wont ship to NY, so I'm hoping a couple of dealers gets these.

It was and will still be a BBS exclusive. No other dealers are going to have these.

And also in my country! Sorry for what I'm going to say but I'm angry: why a knife can't be available for everyone?! Must I pay really more on ebay to have this Para?! It's not right for me... Sorry again, but this is my thought! And really I don't understand this choice!!! :mad:

Hey guys! I can't wait for this particular release because I missed out on the other two runs and the ebay prices are a joke. The Para 2 has become one of my favorite designs. It just works. I'll definitely be picking this one up :)

Because Bentoboxshop commissioned the M390 para2 plain and simple and they reserve the right to sell to who they choose to. They took all the risk investing in the run and thus has exclusivity to this particular iteration of the para2. Being from the Philippines, I too share your gripe about them not shipping international. You need to pay to play, no one is making you buy it. Also, no need to be angry, I'm sure some forumite would be willing to proxy for you.

Don't be angry, it is the 3rd run so Spyderco will probably have the good idea to make an M390 ParaM2 as a sprint run in a near future...or regular production.
I don't like much the ParaM2 for it's blade (cutting edge length) to handle ratio and above all for it's blade shape, I would much prefer an M390 PPT or fix blade knife. Hopefully there is going to be a K390 mule team to play with.

Good idea! Volunteers wanted :D Someone want to help me?
And Philo Beddoe, I would like, but I think is too late for me for a change like this... I saw on Google earth the place where I would like to live: Spyderco Avenue, Golden, Colorado :p

It's an exclusive, not a sprint :)

If you are more specific about what confuses you, perhaps someone will be able to explain it well.

Exactly. Cutlery Shoppe doesn't enter into this...and because it's an exclusive and going into a second (or is it third?) run, there won't be any CC knives this round.
