I had a deal for just a Para 3 LW blade and liner. But the guy wasn't ok with getting a normal amount of money for it. Otherwise it would have been worth it to buy the scales ! I think you'd have to count around 100€ total for the Ti LW scales.

Will you start a new forum thread when you get some experience/photos with these?

Cheers frère I guess a 20 € duty stamp wouldn't be that bad, all things considered. Still painful, zo...

It's a pity you couldn't get the blade & liners deal, that sure would have been ideal for whoever intends to install custom scales from the get go.

i don't know. i remember thinking once the p3lw was released that a salt was a natural progression and would soon follow. it didn't happen.

Well the question I still have is, will they go all in with everything they make in MagnaCut and make them true Salt models, or will there be knives with the blade steel and standard hardware that isn't Salt rated? I'm expecting the latter, but it would be pretty cool to see a lot of models get the Salt treatment that have never got it, and even without the accompanying hardware it will be a close compromise. Then you'll just have to keep the hardware and liners from rusting.

Yes you may ‘has’ it! After we get g10 models, of course.

It is ! I posted an annouce on le bon coin, asking for Spydercos with broken handles, blades that were used as screwdrivers or things like that ! The guy asked if had LW scales for him, I told him no but directed him to heinnie's. too expensive for him but he wouldn't let a BD1N blade go for what I thought was a very fair offer. Weird reaction when he can't do anything with it and won't choose the repair option I proposed him

Perhaps he's planning on making/printing some custom scales instead

More hassle than buying ready-made scales (in titanium and outside the UE, at that) but much cheaper. Also potentially more fun.

If the pair of these I ordered work out like I hope they do, there will be more P3 LWs in my future, definitely including a MagnaCut.

Are these and the AWT scales the only options for the Para 3 LWT? I like AWT but not the "skinny" pattern.
