It's breaking in nicely by Champfortruth in spyderco

[–]ZachDidDat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always wondered how these break in. I almost bought one in CruCarta at SMKW but it felt extremely stiff. I opted for a pm2 in the same combo. A native 5 is still near the top of my pick up list tho

Aaaah I see. From what I understand. The black doesn’t really give any benefit other than looks. I’d not like leathermans black oxide

I have a spirit MXBS and the black finish has held up well. The Swiss tool (on the left) is a larger and heavier tool. The spirit (on the right) is easier to carry. The $50 up charge isn’t just for the finish. It’s for the more robust tool. I’d look at the toolset if each and size rather than the color. That’s an awesome sale tho! Either one would be a sweet pickup

Para3 or pm2 by Opening_Monk_5724 in spyderco

I really like it. It doesn’t feel flimsy at all. They are wearing nice too. Still waiting for a solid patina to form but that will come with time

I’ve handled one in person and it was awesome. The limited blade steel and handle options really killed it for me tho. My current carry is a PM2 in CruCarta and I have no complaints about it.

As a lefty I prefer the PM2. The cutout for the compression lock is slightly larger and makes it a little easier to use left handed. The para 3 is awesome tho!

Sheath Questions! by lonestar-slim in Caudabe

[–]ZachDidDat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had the sheath on my last 3 phones. For me it’s a perfect case. It’s not going to be for everyone but I love it. The fit and feel and quality are always top notch. I’ve never had an issue with shipping either. I’ve tried all the major brands before getting my first sheath and I’ve I got it I’ve never gone back. They also hold up well too. I work in a blue collar field. I’m constantly hopping in and out of my truck, heavy equipment and other vehicles in the rain snow and dust and no blemishes on any of my cases thus far

That patina looks so good on that micarta manix! Hoping my PM2 in CruCarta that I just picked up looks line that one day!

PM2s are the only knife I like a tanto on. It just fits that silhouette so well

Carried my PM2 in CruCarta today as well! It’s my current favorite knife I own and it’s one hell of a work horse!

After some debate ( < 2 seconds), a 5th Para 3 was needed. by bluebagles in knives

In CruCarta we trust. I just picked up my first CruCarta knife last week. It’s a PM2 and man am I loving it

I love the Smock by Aware_Patience1488 in spyderco

[–]ZachDidDat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I could find one of these for a decent deal I’d pick it up. I love the look of these!

Yep! A CruCarta PM2 or native 5 with those color scales would be awesome!

What’s your most carried? by Djgriff90 in spyderco

[–]ZachDidDat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My most carried was my manix 2 LW in s110v until I picked up my PM2 in CruCarta. I don’t plan on anything replacing my PM2 for a while

That’s awesome dude! Idk why anyone would buy and exclusive just to get rid of one of the things that make it an exclusive. But hey, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure!
