Endura vs Para 2?

[STR]

I'm trying to justify my purchase of another folder (what else is new) and I've basically narrowed it down to the Para 2, with the outside chance of picking up a ZT 0350. But looking at the Para I'm wondering what causes it to cost twice as much as the Endura, apart from the SV30? Help me understand please.

I have owned both. Love the Para 2 as its to me a better balance in the hand. I prefer the lock of the Endura. In the end the made in the USA and better fit for the handle make the P2 the easy winner here. The S30V blade on the standard offering is the icing on the cake.

There is a reason the Para 2 gets so much love on this forum. You need to hold one and use it to really understand. The Endura is a very good knife, and a good value. The Para 2 is a GREAT knife, and also a good value.
