Para 3 in December CONFIRMED!

We are getting very close to the end of December, my buy finger is itching to pull the trigger on one of these!
 
does the Para 3 have a pinned stop pin?

doesn't look like you can take it completely apart.
 
GP Knives just put a video up:

Nice...! Think I like the design more than I thought I would. It's going to sell as well as the Para2 did, without a doubt.

Can I send all my Para2's in for an upgraded floating pin?;)

It's not pinned. It's a stepped stop pin, just like the Military. I'm sure you can take it all the way apart.

It's not pinned.

Looks good! Looks better in the videos where you get an overall feel for what the knife is like size-wise.
 
Now if only they'd stop teasing us and just release the dang thing. I've been waiting on this one since it was first rumored to be behind display cases at knife shows over a year ago.
 
Nice
Is the thumbhole the same size? I kinda looks it and thats a main selling point for me
 
Love that they called it the Para3 instead of something completely different. Makes way more sense that all the 'What are they gonna name the Paramilitary 3?' discussions.

I really wanted one until I saw that it has a shorter cutting edge, a longer handle, and a thicker blade than a Sage. I'll hold off on this one.
 
Im gonna own a bunch of these I can already tell I just hope they release a different steel fairly quickly Im really not a fan of s30v way to chippy for me. At least spyderco's is, fantastic at edge holding tho ill give them that. First sprint M4 please!!

I'm thinking the same thing... it kind of looks like a rushed design to me. I still can't get over the blade to handle ratio and the fact that the blade height looks to be close to the same makes it look, well, a bit husky. I know a lot of blade guys are loving it and I hope they get a lot of joy from theirs but it looks goofy to me. If the choil area was replaced with blade it might be perfect. Hope those that ordered theirs get them soon!
