What Para 3 sprint runs do you want to see made?

#1

Post by M4Life »

Just wondering what kinds of para 3 sprint runs you guys would like in the future.

Personally I think it would be super cool to see the para 3 get a CPM 154/S90V composite blade like Spyderco made for the PM2 and a few other knives recently.
Just a man with a plan and a knife in hand.

My knives: Para 3 S110V (customized), Para 3 M390, PM2 S110V, Manix 2 CPM 154/S90V, Dice, Rubicon, Vrango, Native 5 CPM 154/S90V, Manbug ZDP-189, Ladybug, Chaparral LW, Kizer Megatherium

I’d love to see a para 3 with black hardware, a black dlc coated blade, and blue scales. As far as the steel goes, I’d prefer to have something stainless i.e. LC200N or M390 etc.

I would like to see more sprints like the River's Edge exclusive. New blade coating, a underutilized steel, and nice handle color. The thing that impressed me about the knife is that it seemed to catch everybody off guard. Sure, they were teasing the knife, but I can't think of a single person who called the FDE coating. Bottom line, surprise me; try to avoid the usual combos (S35vn and brown, S90V and carbon fiber, etc.).

DLC 3V, 4V, and V4E. DLC 52100 with Grey G10 like the Knifeworks exclusive Manix. DLC Cruwear. DLC Rex45 with Burnt Orange G10. Return of Maxamet...but with DLC. DLC coated LC200N full Salt with neon semi-translucent day glow yellow G10 scales. Are you seeing a trend here? :D

Not a fan of DLC, but I would buy one in 52100.
Vanax would be nice to see as well.

Well, I’m pretty happy with the p3 in M4. So far so good with the rex45. I’d like to get the 52100 version too, but those cf scales really jack the price... the BBS exclusive looks good... I don’t need to want more of them for Pete’s sake!!

How about some super blue with green and tan herringbone micarta?

Adding Sleipner and Elmax to my list. DLC of course.

G10 liner-less with backlock. Stainless steel blade as thin as, or even a bit thinner than that on the Para 2.

Maxamet. :)


Yes, I know that wouldn't technically be a sprint. But it's such a hard to find model that it might as well be.
