REC appears to be releasing a LW Avocado soon. Posted this sticker today. I am guessing either Manix or Para 3 but could be something else too.

A Manix would be cool, especially a translucent “avacado” color .

Let’s go!! I’m partial to a para 3 but either would be great.

Did someone say Manix ? MG2

Who knows maybe they will go with something different like a Sage 5 or Native.

Based on the hype surrounding the original REC Para 3 exclusive, my guess is their first lightweight exclusive will be the Para 3 LW.

On August 24, 2022, a higher up indicated that an Avocado Para3 Lightweight was in the works. So that's my guess.

I am still holding out hopes for a Manix Scorpion at some point, 10V is a great steel.

Not gonna lie, every REC drop always feels like an exercise in managing hypertension.

The Scorpion combo is probably the top sprint for me, 10v is an awesome steel.

Always glad to see more sprints and exclusives but personally not a m390/20cv/204p fanatic. A Manix LW may get me to bite, but if it's a different model I'll let the Avocado enthusiasts have at it.

I bet is pm3.

Just when I was convinced my next purchase would be a PD1 StretchXL…

Edit: my money is on a Para3 LW given 3 avocados, one on a scale, and one in paratrooper gear. Wonder how close the FRN will match the previous G10 iterations...

Another hint from REC on instagram. I am really curious to see how the FRN color turns out.

Manix LW would be most likely to get my $$

Any news or updates. We are getting close to the end of the week.

Pretty sure it's a Para 3 LW judging by the comments on their instagram page. Would be pleasantly surprised if it's a Manix 2 LW

Para 3 LW for $170, will be interesting to see how quick they sell out.

It’s live now, no idea how long they will last. The second run of PM2’s lasted a day or two if I remember. But with all the hype of the original Para 3 this might go faster. Looks to have all black hardware and liners, good looking knife.
