It all started with the laminated S90v model...

It's funny, I was thinking about the PM2 frenzy that has been going on for awhile and has continued even after the previous shortage ended.
I remember the original run of Cutlery Shoppe orange/ctsXHP PM2 and it didn't sell out very quickly. He even had a special low price in the early days of the listing. At that time people weren't as Para crazy as they are now.
Will "PM2 fatigue" set in eventually? I wonder. Knifeworks carbon fiber/M4. BladeHQ jade/M4. The 110V that is now hitting dealers. And this one. Wow.

Without doubts.
I passed on S110V Para without regrets, but I need this one.

A few years ago there was a preorder for a PM2 with XHP and orange G10, the preorder sold out in record time and now the knives sell for high prices on the used market.

Not happy about this! Lol... Just when I said I was done for a bit, might be buying and scale swapping with my foliage green elmax pm2. I think both knives would come out pretty cool.

I have had several para military 2 knives and I always end up selling them in favor of the delica for EDC. Its kind of funny but the PM2 really isn't THAT much bigger than a delica in terms of the blade. And the delica is MUCH easier to carry. Just my humble opinion of course.

Great to see another CS exclusive. I've already got the old Orange CTS-XHP with the satin finish blade so I'll pass on this one. Too many nice knives coming out, can't buy them all.

This is becoming quite difficult, so much cool stuff coming up, should get a job at a carwash or start cooking some crystal meth to somewhat keep up..
With so much nice stuff coming up I might become scared that that Cruwear PM2 might happen soon as well. ;)

Definitely first (and second) priority on my Spyderco list too.

But not being a big fan of the color orange, even living in a country where it's the national colour. (but I also don't care much for royalty, orange is the royal's last name)
I do think that orange G10 with the black DLC should work really well and it's nice to see a DLC exclusive.

It should be quite a looker, especially with black hardware. Orange is too flashy for me so I'm out. :o

I'm in for a couple depending on the price...

I just hope that all of the sprints/exclusives that I am interested in come out many months apart...but I know that they probably won't. :(
