Just wondering if Spyderco has any plans on bringing out a Para in orange G10 (like you've done with the military)?
 
This question was asked before. The response from Spyderco was that there are no plans at this time for an orange Para. You're not alone in wanting one though.
 
Or how about Carbon Fiber?

The Para is just as good as the Millie....

I say if they do it for the Millie they should do it for the Para...

I found the carbon fiber on the BG42 Military to be more "plastic-y" (in both feel and sound) than the G10 on the orange Military. It felt cheap and sounded cheap, at least on the particular CF Mil I owned for three days--before I traded it back for my orange Mil.

Anyone else share that opinion?

I'll just say that notion hadn't crossed my mind when operating a knife using either scale material.

I do wonder how much scale weight you save between the PP CF and the G10 on a military though.

Reason being is I like the feel of the G10 every bit as much as the PP CF.

I don't know so much about orange G10. Too bright for me personally. I do know if there is ever a carbon fiber Para though you can mark me down for one.

Oh yeah, while I am dreaming, tip up carry pleaseeeee!

Aaw. :(

Ah, well. Guess I'll have to settle for the digital model until they do bring one out.

Thanks for the response.
 
I love the orange g10! it is their best color yet, imo. I love my ukpk and I wish there were more options in the orange g10 :(
I too wish the para was available in orange, because the military is just too much blade and handle for me..lol
 
After loosing my FG Para in the bush for a couple of days I quickly realised the merits of High Visiblitly.
I'd definitely go for an Orange or any other High vis colour for the Para.
 
I'd like to see a yellow G10 someday too. A black on yellow or silver on yellow G10 Military or Para would be in my pocket for sure if it were available.
 
The green handles on the Lil'Temp glow under UV light so if you have the right flashlight it is very easy to find in the dark:D

Might be a good compromise to the even more glowy Orange G-10;)
