M390 Blue G-10 Paramilitary 2 (Factory Seconds)

#1

Post by Shakyamuni »

Hi folks,

Just a heads up, there appear to be 8 of these in stock at Bento Box Shop. It's a good deal if you don't mind the fact that they don't carry Spyderco's standard warranty, and the blade will be marked to make it clear that it is a factory second.

I loved mine before it was confiscated by the TSA, but I think I'll wait for the new, non-seconds to come back into stock.

Out of curiosity, what do you think it was that made yours a second?

Will there be another run of the Blue Para 2's?

Yes there will be more, but I think it'll be the remainder of the 2nd run, not a new 3rd run but I'm not sure

I emailed BBS that exact question a week or so ago and the reply I got was basically "maybe...someday".

Oh, this makes me very happy. I had two and sold off my backup to fund other purchases and immediately regretted that decision. I'd jump on this deal if I didn't have other obligations at the moment.

Spyderco is behind on regular production PM2's, they've got the green KW's sprint run that's hopefully coming out soon, and correct me if I'm wrong but and I think their is supposed to be a fluted titanium PM2 sprint run coming out? I can understand why another Blue Para2 run would be way down on the list for them..

Hmmm, I can't see it on their website? Secret password needed?

I'm crazy curious about this too - I got some INSANE deals at the factory outlet seconds sale, but I assume the prices from a third party dealer won't be nearly as awesome as the manix 2 XL second I got for $20.

I still haven't found anything I could identify wrong with it.
◊ Manix 2 XL ◊ Manix 2 lightweight blue ◊ Caly 3 carbon fiber ◊ Caly 3 damascus / CF ◊ Lum Chinese Nishijin ◊ Sage 1 ◊ Superleaf
◊ Dragonfly FRN serrated ◊ Endura Gen 1 ◊ Rescue Gen 1 ◊ Endura 4 FFG ◊ Delica 4 half serrated ◊ Mule Team ◊ Spin ◊ Bushcraft UK
◊ S110V Forum Native 5 ◊ Black Nishijin Cricket

[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Top 5 most wanted: Domino, Dice, CF Para-2, CF Cricket. Seeing a theme here?

Most of the seconds I've seen just have off centering while closed.

Living in Colorado had its benefits... ;)

I just wish I had more money to spend when I went there. There were so many more good deals. I actually had to put back a CF para2 because I ran out of money :(
