According to the Instagram comments it's a dark grey. Looks black to me.

The star of the show is obviously the steel. I think its cool and will do well, I know people are tired of PM2 exclusives though. I'll still hold tight for the PM2 Crucarta.

Years ago my first expensive knife was an Elmax blade from ZT. Sadly I sold it when I caught the Spyder bug. Definitely picking this one up. Elmax is a great steel.

Anyone have a price on this yet? I'm interested in it only because my elmax isn't in my preferred work knife platform. Im pretty sure my lionspy is my only elmax and it plays a different role in my collection. Havent had a chance to work it hard and teat the steel out so a pm2 would be nice if the price is right.

Nope.
If you want an exclusive pm2 then go for it. Im just pm2 oversaturated at this point.

I will also pass on this knife.
At least it is not black blade, very tired of those exclusives.

If the Elmax mark up $5-10 it will sell fast, just so few regular Spydercos in stock.

I'll pass, I have other Elmax blades and beyond the steel it's a typical PM2. Good luck to everyone who wants one!

PM2 exclusives are like Classic Coke, but I don't drink soda anymore.

From a collector's POV, I go for rare/unique knives. A PM2 exclusive is neither rare nor unique. But if people keep buying them, shops should keep making them. Business is business. If I owned a shop, I'd probably make a PM2 exclusive too.

While I would like a knife in Elmax, I am not paying a big price for a PM2 exclusive.

I imagine it got a lot of people's attention, but probably not the way they'd hoped. I'm sure it will still sell out no problem, especially if people are just looking for any PM2 these days, as they seem to be difficult to come by from what I've been reading.

Everybody mods. The black G10 will be sitting on the sidelines soon.
