I haven't heard many reports from blade show, but I keep looking. I've heard there was a manix xl flipper there. I was under the impression that the new manix flipper was standard size. Also that there is a new para design, probably the shorter version.

Anyone else?

I'm here. Shaking hands and looking at new Spydies. :). I will check in on this thread in a few days once I get back home. :). The "what was in Sals left pocket" that I mentioned last month was here at the show by the way. It was the smaller paramilitary. ;)

Just so I'm clear, do you mean that there is a somewhat scaled down (smaller) version of the Para Military 2 that will be released?

Sal said they were working on one! And I guess there's a prototype now! :)

I couldn't make it to Blade Show this year. Just curious, what kind of knife pin did Spyderco give away this year?

Hopefully they do a smaller size manix flipper also and not just an xl.

I'm anxiously awaiting more news myself in the form of pics and videos. Lance, you better be taking notes! ;) I'm trying to anticipate the sticker shock of what awesome things I might see.

Re: the Manixes and Domino size comparisons, I dug up these pics I posted a while back that might help frame this discussion. Cheers, Radioactive :)

Yeah, this is definitely a nail biter. ;) What can you share with us from the proto case, Lance? Anything good? C'mon, man! :D

Thanks for starting this thread, LC. The suspense is killing me...
