These BladeHQ Exclusive ParaMilitary2 will be available on Tuesday, December 21, 2021 at 10:00am MT for $140.00 each.

Is it weird that I really like this? Super steels are great, but there's something to be said for simple steels when you get an inevitable chip you got to sharpen out. That BD1N is really nice on a "harder user" as they say. I actually wish they would have a production option like this with the basic G-10 handle. Maybe they'll do it for the PM2 LW though.

This is the first time I’ve ever been even close to considering a PM2. For my purpose and in my experience, I’ve liked my BD1N blades better than my s30v etc.

BD1N stainless steel is actually more corrosion resistant than S30V/S35VN/S45VN but not very good at edge retention.

In everyday kitchen use, I've enjoyed BD1N. Although the thin blade geometry of the Z-cuts helps.

I bought 1 for each of my children in honor of their mother, my wife, who passed away recently from metastatic breast cancer. I intend to buy some more to give away. Thanks to Spyderco for supporting the cause and Knife Joy for the exclusive run.

Blade HQ is doing an M4 Poliwog. A handle only a mother could love...
The silhouette in the closed position makes me question reality.

Earlier, I said something similar in the Poliwog thread:

To see the true measure of the ugliness of the Poliwog you have to look at it when closed!



Still, not as ugly as the tumorous Jot Singh Khalsa!

Just saw the Shabazz review of the Slysz Bowie re-release. So frustrated I could I want to throw my shaman into my tv. Don’t know how I missed it but at $700+ it seems my only chance at getting one was missed. Don’t know how I didn’t see it was being released. F***!!!!!

Poliwog CPM-M4 Satin PlainEdge Blade Natural G-10 C98GM4P BladeHQ (Japan) is Coming Soon for $185.50.

Really? Are they on all the normals I’m assuming? Twitter, Instagram, but on what else are they on?

Besides Twitter and Instagram what else are they on? I’m not really on social media

To get a Slysz Bowie, you could try the knifejoy website and sign up for a notification when they are available again

That's what I'd do.

Yes, get on the KnifeJoy emailing list. There’s a place to sign up at the bottom of the main page where it says “SIGN UP AND SAVE”.

The website notifications are probably enough. I know they announce their drops on Reddit and Instagram too. I have no idea what else they are on social media wise, but these threads that RamZar does every year is really how I stay up to date with all the releases Spyderco does and is the reason I signed up for the forum. Look for Spyderco 2022 Lists: Delivered & Upcoming and you'll be Golden... Colorado, USA, Earth.
