Spyderco Para Military 2: G-10 / S110V
Leleo
70
Apr 28, 2018
It's a beautiful knife. I already had the limited edition PM2 in olive drab scales/black blade and it's an exceptional knife. So about a month ago I bought the blue/purple PM2 at Amazon for $150. It's cheaper than here, and it's the cheapest you'll find it new anywhere. But the box was a little damaged, and had extra tape holding it together, like it was used. It was also missing a paper inside. The action was mighty stiff compared to my PM2 OD, but I guess that could be fixed with some adjusting. It didn't sit well with me, though, that it was obviously a knife that had been used and returned, and if I was paying $150 for it, might as well pay $15 more and get it from Blade HQ or Knife Center or DLT or any other legitimate seller. So I returned the knife. I still want it, but I want the PM3 version because it's more of an EDC size for me, and I already have a PM2. If I had no PM2 I'd definitely go for this. You can get it for $155 here if you opt out of that phony case. Yeah, you have to wait a month, but it's $10 less than the (legitimate) competition. Truth is, this is a luxury, not a necessity, so the wait is fine with me. I buy a lot from Amazon, but I wouldn't buy another Spyderco from them. Still, what I like the most about Amazon is the incredibly easy return policy, and I get refunded as soon as I drop off my package at UPS. But as far as Spydies, I'd look elsewhere than Amazon -- someone will buy that same knife I returned. Even though it's not a huge discount here, if you want this knife, I'd get it here. My 2 cents here is worth $10, trust me.
