Black Para Military 2 Question

#1

Post by Sir Ringo »

Hey Guys,

In the last couple of days some retailers have made the Black Para Military 2 available for sale. I am pleased to say that I have secured one :D and should have it sometime next week.The image on some dealer sites show the Black Para Military 2 as all black including the screws. However some youtube video's show silver or metal screws.
Can anyone explain why?

Thanks
Rino

Hey Rhino,
I could be wrong, but I think the earlier versions of the black on black Para 2's had the silver fasteners, while the current production should have the black fasteners.
Later,
Don
Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, even if it is wrong.:rolleyes:

Mind if I ask where you ended up grabbing yours from? I've been looking for weeks and can't find one for a decent price.

Don't mind at all. Spoke with the guys at S&R Knives in Toronto and they have somewhere around 20 Black PM2's coming next week. I already have mine on pre order. I would suggest that you check their website Tues and or call .They are a good bunch of guys. Good luck!! :)
