This should prompt Spyderco to make more CF Para's ASAP to get in on the cashflow. There's obviously demand for it.............................................................................. Hope to see the fluted one someday :)

I saw the auction... It came with a STR clip, other than that it's the same CF Para2.

I would find it hard to justify paying half of that amount. The bid list looks like only 3 or 4 bidders kept going back & forth.
