Some pictures I see make them look almost identical, others have the Maxamet looking much darker than the CRUWEAR.

Also, while we're on the topic, how similar are the handles of the Cruwear Military, the PM2, and the Para 3? I think the Para 3 and the Millie are very close, but I'm not sure. The filters and lighting used in the pictures I've seen of each are misleading.
More K390 and 10V, please.

The scales on the Para 3 Cruwear are very light grey compared to the Maxamet version. I think the color of the PM2 is much closer to the Maxamet knives.

Keep in mind that some people (like myself) have dyed the scales on their P3 Cruwear. Mine is now much darker than it was originally.

Most certainly not. I have both.
