Help Me Pick a PM2

Well it looks like the S110V is getting the most love. I really like the camo scales though and I only see that with S30V though. Seriously thinking about getting both and swapping the scales on them. Would that be crazy?

Hi quartertime, the "best" steel selection kind of depends on your sharpening routine. If you use your knife for weeks or months until it is quite dull before resharpening then you will likely appreciate the characteristics of s110v. The more dull you let your knife become before resharpening, the more a steel like s110v will start to stand out. If, on the other hand, you like to do regular touchups and keep your knife in the upper range of attainable sharpness then s30v/s35vn are better steels to work with. They are slightly easier to grind and are easier to take to very high levels of sharpness at any given grit size. I fall into the latter category so I prefer more balanced steels like s30v for edc but based on the love for s110v I think a lot of folks fall into the first category.

Well I've just never had a blue knife before but the more I looked at them the more I liked it. Found one today under $135 so it's on the way. It's the Blurple S110V.
If I decide I just don't like the color I might look at changing the scales but more than likely I'll leave it that way. Blurple. Guess I'll have to learn Spydenese talk now that I have one.:)

Oops, just saw this. Enjoy! Its good stuff.
 
Well I checked the tracking number and it's supposed to be delivered today. :D I can't wait for the mailman to get here! I even put on blue jeans and a blue t-shirt so we'd match. Got my lil' Native on me and it's all honed up to hair poppin' sharp for opening the package with. Wouldn't want to open a Spyderco package with a non Spydie.

Is it just me or do any of y'all get excited when you have a new Spydie coming?
 
My first PM2 was the DLC S30v
the Coating is great but I am not impress by the s30v
I would say go for a S35 or S110

I would like a DLC S35

I'm not the biggest spyderco fan but I like you just pre-ordered a 110v PM2 from KnifeCenter hoping I like it better than my Endura. :o
 
Got it! Everything looks and works good on it. Blade perfectly centered and sharp. No play. Drops shut freely. Flicks open easy. I'm gonna like Mr. Blurple.

Good job Spyderco.
:)
 
Blurple took a bit to warm up to. It is now one of my favorite colors for spyderco. Love the s110v pm2.
Here are my pair of my s110v.
