Heat treatment matters too, and Spyderco runs their S30V harder than Benchmade does with most of their steels.+ one on the Para military 2. I just did all the research myself for a folder of the same size, I like the thumb holes though, so it came down to the para 2 and the benchmade 550 griptilian. I chose the para 2 because of the s30v opposed to 154cm because I had heard more people talking about the s30v's edge retension. The other knife in my sights is the Al Mar Sere 2000, but it's more money for VG10. Good luck
