Thanks ninemm,

I think I'll have to take some more pics shortly. And will try to do some with actual 9mm rounds just for your forum namesake :) Maybe Ti Millie ? Not sure, but I have had a fairly large shipment come from my dealer lately - Ti Lums, Matriarchs, Dragonfly Tattoo and a few others.

Introducing the Para Military 2 (aka: Para2, PM2)

My current and latest EDC to test and use on my daily cutting chores. A very nicely designed and upgraded folder :) There wasn't too much wrong with the PM1 but this one seems to be 'nicer' ? :D

Nice Para 2 shots, and those rounds will probably make a few nice shots as well!

Nice shots, Daniel.
I noticed very rough surface on the bullets. Is it supposed to be like this.
Sorry for my ignorance, last time I shoot the weapon 23 years ago.

Thanks guys :)

Roman they are 9mm rounds I pressed last week for a comp. The projectiles are coated lead rounds as many ranges here in Oz don't allow the use of jacketed ammo. I prefer the round nose projjies as they feed a bit more reliably in my Czech made pistol :)

Now back to the Para 2...... I think I love it. The compression lock is not my favourite but it is quite good once you get used to it. The Para2 action is very very smooth. It is also very easy to flick open :p

Hey thanks Harry Potter... I noticed a lack of magic coming from you lately? Looking forward to seeing some nice autumn shots from you soon. I'm working on my Spring collection shortly :p

Got some this morning with the Ti Millie :D

Just for giggles and to resurrect this old thread:

I give you Spyderco Lava on a bed of roses :) Also in honour of the recently announced Lava sprint run.

Image

And in honour of a possibly Kopa sprint I give you some of my customised Kopas from my good friend Tony(dahose) !

Image

I love these !!!!

Roman,

Scale materials are on a page or two back. Oops I forgot I've actually posted this pic back a while ago. Anyway it's good to resurrect nice things !

Tony will be getting a PM from me soon about Green Kauri on Kopa, Kiwi and Lava :)

Unfortunately due to Australian import restrictions I have been forced to be very quiet over the last couple of years. That said, I will have to update this thread with any of the new stuff I have got locally from other collectors plus the ones that Australian Customs have allowed through.

Thanks for the reminder mate :) I knew I can count on your to nag me into submission !

I really feel bad for you. The knife laws there blow my mind... To the point where I immigrate elsewhere over the principle behind it.

I sold something to someone from Australia a little while back.

He had me ship to a US address of a friend. He says he comes to US every so often, and takes the knives back with him.

I'm not really sure of the rules or anything.
