My Para2 came today (*from Spyderco) and it has Both Sal, and Eric’s signature/logo on the blade – very nice, but nothing unusual.

However, I have yet to see a Para2 with the logo’s in different spots… My Para2 has Sal’s logo on one side of the hole, and Eric’s logo on the other side of the hole, near the jimping – the same side of the hole as: Golden Colorado USA Earth.

Is this something that others have, is it common? Or is this the first time you have heard of this? I have seen pictures of just Sal’s Logo & pictures of Sal and Eric’s logo together, but not in the aforementioned way.

TIA,

*My Para2 came directly from Spyderco. I had a Kris model that had issues with the lock so I sent it in and it was deemed to be (& was) ‘manufacturer defected’ model. I was fully refunded for the MSRP of the Kris ($199) and purchased a P2 and a couple medium grit Sharpmaker rods with the rest of the store credit. I must say that I am very pleased with Charlynne (I think the spellings right, if not, sorry) and the Warranty & Repair Team; about a 2 - 3 week turn-around time – Excellent! :thumbup:

My stupid camera doesn’t want to take a decent picture of the two logos, for this I apologize. :grumpy:
 
Can't speak for the Para 2, since I don't have one and this is the first time both marks have ever appeared on one knife. However, in the past Eric's mark as often appeared behind the Spyderhole of knives he designed and Sal's mark has most often appeared in front of the Spyderhole on knives he designed. Beyond that, since the "bug" was added to the left side of most blades a few years back, all "designer/maker" marks have appeared on the right side of the blade. Based on that, yours looks like it follows all the logical patterns.

Thats different than mine. My model has Eric's in front of Sal's and they are side by side. By in front I mean Eric's sig is to the right of Sal's but both are side by side. I'd show it but my camera batteries are charging right now.

edit. Sorry but I had to take at least one. Lighting is poor but you can barely see the logos.

Yup...

I just got this from the Spyderco Forums:

Thank you very much, alancamby [and alanjeep]! That is exactly what I was looking for!

So, it sounds like my Para2 is what the future Para2’s will look like...

Thanks kiwispyder:

This from Eric Glesser:

… In this case the first few hundred had only my dad’s [tag], after seeing this we put my tag on. I jumped at the opportunity to share space with his.

Then it got more complicated, after seeing the tags together we pushed my tag smaller and behind the hole. (together they seemed like too much) That’s how future production will be engraved. We certainly didn’t plan for this - apologies."
