Just found two Ti PM2 versions in S45 VN on the site of a 100% reputable European dealer:

PM2 Spash Ti https://www.coutellerie-tourangelle.com ... 46364.html

PM2 Hexa Ti https://www.coutellerie-tourangelle.com ... 46385.html

Anyone ever heard of these models?! :confused: :eek:

EDIT: Probably just a handle-mod this particular dealer does?!
EDIT 2: Yes... handle mod by the dealer.. my French rather sucks, but this I can understand when reading the description

Very interesting! I wonder if they're selling them as customized versions or if they're produced like that by Spyderco?

Noticed them as well, they also carry the pm2 in s45vn at a reasonable price (for Europe). Customer service is awful but I have had no problem with receiving my items when ordering.

I was so surprised when I happened to come across these models that I started the thread before reading all of the description:

But though my French is really bad, this "Monté et et ajusté par nos soins, gardez la garantie." means something like that the dealer assembled the knives...

cust a2 and cust a3 - some kind of customs. I like them, the price is not even that horrible for EU IMO.

They have a nice look to them. With shipping from Europe factored in, they're too pricey for me, though.

Is it? Why?
I´ve ordered twice from them and returned one item (not a knife), all went well. Says nothing of course concerning general service.

... and I am pretty sure it should say SpLash instead of Spash... ;)

There a couple of US sellers selling similar scales. Some of them look very nice, but i would worry about scratching the finish.

Last knife I ordered from them they sent out an email with confirmation that my order was being processed and that I should get back to them I’m 24 hours (I think it was) if I didn’t receive a tracking link. So I didn’t receive one and emailed them after the time was up, and then again and again until the knife was delivered like 10 days later. Still haven’t heard a thing from them.

They did however answer an email a month earlier when I sent them a query about a sprint that was suspiciously in stock, and got an answer.
