Long turnaround time?

[RetiredGuns]

I sent in a new, unused original Para for vertical slack on March 16th. Spyderco received it with delivery confirmation on March 19th. I waited a full month before I asked how it was going and was told it was not repairable and that I would be receiving a Para 2 as a replacement. While I really like the original, this was totally fair. Another 2 weeks have gone by but no knife. Looking at other posts it seems over 6 weeks is a bit long.
Maybe stock is low and dealers have priority?

I'd suggest you give Spyderco another call. I know they use UPS, and that it can be slow to the East Coast, but 2 weeks to the MidWest seems a bit too long.

I was told the knife was on backorder which I thought might be the case as I started to see the Digicam/black version get short on the regular sites.

Mine was shipped yesterday and will be minty new!
