Black bladed Camo Para Indahouse!

[yngwie]

Hi everybody!

This is my first post here. I've just got my new spydie - Paramilitary new out of the box and I'd like to share my excitement with you.
Now that's a crazy sharp blade! The opening is smooth and overall tuning is what you'd expect from Spyderco - flawless. I totally love the handles - the grip is secure and the jimping on the blade adds a lot to it - well done Spyderco!:thumbup:
Oh, and what about the lock - with one word EXCELLENT.:thumbup::thumbup:

I made some pics:

and with family...

Thanks for your kind remarks.

Some more thoughts on my Para:

- I really like the camo style handles and the fact that the pattern on each knife is unique makes it kind of cool :thumbup:

- the black coating on the blade is very smooth in contrast to the coating on my BM 630

- the only thing I'd change is adding a half inch to the blade

- overall this knife is beautiful and it's built like a tank - great for "urban jungle"

The Para is an awesome blade. Go for the Millie next if you want a larger Spydie.

yeah, I'm just waiting for a blue version - that color is still missing in my Spydie collection

Man, you are killing me ...I have one on order. I have had a full sized full serrated millie for a while (got a great deal on the SE) but I have been jonesing for the para. The black blade and the camo is the best combo I have seen in a while!!

Hey, you surely won't be dissapointed, this knife ROCKS. What I forgot to mention is that the blade is 100% centred when the knife is closed :thumbup:. My other Spydies (all made in Seki) are slightly off-centre.
When I first saw Military with Digital Camo scales about a year ago, I just wished Spyderco comes out with Camo Paramilitary and when the 09 catalog was out, I was totally blown away - black with camo is an ingenious combination :thumbup:.

Some more pictures to let you want it more

this knife IS sharp

an unusual combination

black company

Sweet ... that knife is on my list. The ZT 0350 is first. I have a Millie with black on black - a great knife indeed. Thank you for the pics she's beautiful.

Good question! I put it under a scrutiny and found out, that - indeed - they are. I think that the scales are translucent and that the camo pattern is somehow glued onto the external side as you can see on this photo:

So that the camo pattern is slightly to be recognized when looking on the internal side of the scales:

That's cool.I thought they might be,just by looking at your first few pictures.

I just got mine. (It has more tan than the pics above). I have well over 300 knives and this camo para is the silkiest/smoothest knife straight out of the box ever. Just like yours the blade was exactly centered and the lock up was rock solid. I am not as nimble with the comp. lock as a liner lock but as nice as this bad boy is...I will learn.
